[DNA 72] Various Artists - «Fall Asleep Ghosts» Cat # ... DNA 72
Release Date ... 23.12.2009
Genre ... Drone Ambient, Dark Ambient, Field Recordings, Experimental
Type ... FLAC Lossless / mp3 VBR


This compilation is dedicated to DNA Production second anniversary. Two years ago the first DNA Production release was out.

»  Numb Silence - Excelsior!


[DNA 71] Numb Silence - «Excelsior!» Cat # ... DNA 71
Release Date ... 20.12.2009
Genre ... Drone Ambient
Type ... FLAC Lossless / mp3 VBR


Russian ambient project Numb Silence makes its debut on DNA Production with short work called "Excelsior!".
The basis of this work is an extremely static and solid drone ambient. Inspired by "Excelsior!", a poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, title composition has fragments of melancholic melodies floating in gloom and suppressing drone. The second one, "Air Of Bright Nights" presses a listener with its dark atmosphere where even rare melodies help to create an enormous picture of deserted space somewhere between depressive wakefulness and instinctive escape from reality.


»  Inner Struggle - Justified Moments


[DNA 70] Inner Struggle - «Justified Moments» Cat # ... DNA 70
Release Date ... 10.12.2009
Genre ... Dark Ambient
Type ... FLAC Lossless / mp3 VBR


Inner Struggle is back shortly after its debut work "Burning Down The Past" was released in November by DNA Production. New EP called "Justified Moments" is shorter but more expressive and emotional.
These four tracks balance on the edge between light and fluid ambient and tense drone ambient. Listening to it, you could sink in the waves of echoing ambient layers which roll over elements of urban field recordings.


»  Purist - Stillstand


[DNA 69] Purist - «Stillstand» Cat # ... DNA 69
Release Date ... 30.11.2009
Genre ... Drone, Experimental
Type ... FLAC Lossless / mp3 VBR


Deep and tough chords, guitar drones thrown each on other with an overlap. Drones repeated cyclically and inarticulate whisper upon it - in this way Purist new instrumental piece starts. But don't compare "Stillstand" with godlike "Sunn o)))" drone masterpieces or with early works of legendary "Black Sabbath". Yes, there are similar features but when "Stillstand" reaches its middle point, saxophone improvisations cut through drones. A bit schizophrenic, it sound very good and appears as that so-called "funeral jazz" developed by German band "The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble", a fellow-countrymen to Purist.
But despite these strong influences and associations, in this work Purist members prove they have their own distinctive features. In awesome final they create leisurely improvisation duel between melancholic saxophone and depressive guitar chords hovering over the mass of chaotic drones.


»  The Dead Children Factory - Chemical Hell


[DNA 68] The Dead Children Factory - «Chemical Hell» Cat # ... DNA 68
Release Date ... 20.11.2009
Genre ... Industrial, Dark Ambient
Type ... FLAC Lossless / mp3 VBR


"...Apocalypse. What do remain after it?
Barren soil, endless and monotonous ruined landscape, and wind over it all, wind which spreads a deadly disease. Radioactive contamination.
Injected in bloodstream, infection quickly affects all body from trambled toes to head. Mind hallucinates, blood coagulates and then brain dies. Chemical hell is all over the world..."


»  Inner Struggle - Burning Down The Past


[DNA 67] Inner Struggle - «Burning Down The Past» Cat # ... DNA 67
Release Date ... 10.11.2009
Genre ... Dark Ambient, Drone Ambient
Type ... FLAC Lossless / mp3 VBR


Inner Struggle first solo work at DNA Production wins over listeners witn its completeness and polish. It's like an ancient peat lake with dark waters. Rain and wind paint weird dark ambient traceries on the lake's cold waves of heavy and hollow drones keeping its mysteries and fears under the surface of deceptively calm waters.
No matter where the lake are - in primitive forest, in forgotten glen or among ruins of abandoned industrial area. No matter how this music sounds like. It could have many names but it always has its own distinctive features: conceptual completeness, integrity and inner power.


»  Itzli - Sadness


[DNA 66] Itzli - «Sadness» Cat # ... DNA 66
Release Date ... 30.10.2009
Genre ... Dark Ambient, Modern Classical
Type ... FLAC Lossless / mp3 VBR


"Sadness", the new work from Russian dark ambient project Itzli, shows its obvious creative progress in comparison with first Itzli work released as a part of the split album "Waves From Sick Mind / Blue Bird". Preserving initial strength and gloominess, Itzli considerably improved in composition and emotional tension degree.
Musically "Sadness" differs from standard dark ambient because of good and balanced neoclassical inclusions which accentuates individuality of each tracks as well as the album in whole. And emotionally material assumed some gothic features expressing the dark side of Itzli creativity: melancholy turning into depression, unconscious anxiety, reticence and despair.


»  Drugcomputer - Catalepsy Documents


[DNA 65] Drugcomputer - «Catalepsy Documents» Cat # ... DNA 65
Release Date ... 20.10.2009
Genre ... Abstract, Noise, Ambient
Type ... FLAC Lossless / mp3 VBR


"...24-bit coconuts and 32-bit pineapples. A new knowledge recognition is discrete. New one or nothing. The zero or the one.
Neuron/axon entity raised in metal box. Views modelling with sounds of images. But all the same, organic envelope with some speaking/thinking device is just an cyberorganic attachment to computer..."
In this abstract noise/ambient album Russian noise project Drugcomputer explores how they see the progressive process of society cybernation, how human individuals depend on it and which consequences are behind this process.
Uncommon for russian digital noise sound rarefaction and smoothness as well as balance and absolute inhumanity in concept distinguish this work.


»  Inner Struggle & I.M.M.U.R.E. - Split


[DNA 64] Inner Struggle & I.M.M.U.R.E. - «Split» Cat # ... DNA 64
Release Date ... 10.10.2009
Genre ... Drone Ambient, Industrial
Type ... FLAC Lossless / mp3 VBR


Two Russian ambient project from DNA Production catalogue unite in their collaborative effort to create this split release. Alexey Oleinikov as I.M.M.U.R.E. and Seclorum with his new project Inner Struggle, both of them contribute a track to the album.
Inner Struggle's track called "Blackout" is full of dark and calm drone ambient with deep and evenly breathing devoid of peaks in sound.
And "Time To Pretend", I.M.M.U.R.E. contribution, has a great difference.Very nervous and disquiet, it's similar to early I.M.M.U.R.E. works. Rough and angular composition made of tense ambient layers, looped noise fragments and cold synthetic melodies rise gradually and develop in almost 20-minute track.


»  CEZAR - The Collection 1998-2006


[DNA 63] CEZAR - «The Collection 1998-2006» Cat # ... DNA 63
Release Date ... 30.09.2009
Genre ... Abstract, Ambient, Experimental
Type ... FLAC Lossless / mp3 VBR


Polish sound designer Cezary Gapik aka CEZAR presents the retrospective compilation of his most significant tracks previously included in CEZAR's past works self-released mostly as CD-Rs.
Six deliberately impersonal isolationist tracks are composed of plastic, viscous and static minimal ambient layers with a slight touch of electroacoustic. Looped and evenly pulsing synthetic drones integrate in abstract soundscapes adding meditative features in completely lifeless and isolationist emotional atmosphere of this work.


»  Coph'antae Tryr & 581С - Obscure Action


[DNA 62] Coph'antae Tryr & 581С - «Obscure Action» Cat # ... DNA 62
Release Date ... 20.09.2009
Genre ... Noise, Drone Ambient
Type ... mp3 VBR / FLAC Lossless


This collaborative work between two Russian industrial artists consists of six diverse pieces - deep, primitive and dark.
All these tracks are composed on basis of heavy and a bit noisy dark ambient layers saturated with raw and hollow industrial rumble. And on this basis abstract noise associations create unique constructions - somewhere rare, somewhere intensive, looped or unstructured.
Prevailing in the first half, noise inclusions reach the highest mark at short interlude called "THJHJHGI2". Then it instantly makes way for droning raw soundscapes occasionally appearing as faint minor sounds while hollow dark ambient layers seem to fill whole world around.


»  Fosel - Equilibria


[DNA 61] Fosel - «Equilibria» Cat # ... DNA 61
Release Date ... 10.09.2009
Genre ... Dark Ambient
Type ... mp3 VBR / FLAC Lossless


Nearly two years ago DNA Production was ran, and the first release in its catalogue was Fosel's work called "Triangulum". Now, after sixty albums released, DNA Production proudly presents "Equilibria", the new release from Fosel.
Stylistically this work is similar to "Triangulum" but a little bit deeper and integral. It has the same background, abstract sound spaces harmonious in its minimality. Spaces are different for each track but are always constructed from atomic and elastic sound waves with the smallest cracklings, rustles and other concrete sounds. In these spaces melancholic melodies appear and go away imperceptibly, gentle melodies for meditation and quiet contemplation.
Also "Equilibria" inherits finely balanced composition and expert sound processing which makes it possible to reach its staggering extensionality and transparency.


»  I.M.M.U.R.E. - Somnia


[DNA 60] I.M.M.U.R.E. - «Somnia» Cat # ... DNA 60
Release Date ... 30.08.2009
Genre ... Dark Ambient, Drone Ambient
Type ... mp3 VBR / FLAC Lossless


I.M.M.U.R.E., who contributed a lot to DNA Production catalogue in the past, now presents a new considerable work with clear composition and idea.
This album called "Somnia", a Latin equivalent for English "dreams", is a compressed flow of dream essences expressed in sound. Against all expectations, it's not calm and fuzzy soundscape but intense and droning ambient layer on background with dense build on "natural" sounds layer in front. Throughout all 43-minute piece minimal and powerful background layer is continually competing with "natural" sounds while clear light consonances hover over all.
Emotional peak of the piece is in the beggining of last third when Troum-like dry pulsations raise and begin to support "natural" sounds layer harmoniously interlacing and painting unusual pictures of dreaming subconsciousness.
And in the end of "Somnia" is the same haze of "natural" sounds floating above droning background.


»  Essence Structura - Сны мёртвых земель (Dead Lands Dreams)


[DNA 59] Essence Structura - «Сны мёртвых земель (Dead Lands Dreams)» Cat # ... DNA 59
Release Date ... 20.08.2009
Genre ... Drone Ambient
Type ... mp3 VBR / FLAC Lossless


16 minutes of post-apocalyptic droning, phantasmagoria of a world immersed in eternal dream by last war of humans.
Barren soil, destroyed concrete castles, abode of spectral shadows hallmarked with their past. They listen to the song of wind roaming among ruins. On the edge of oblivion they dream of stars in the sky lost forever in a haze of dust.


»  Epsilon Eridani - Retrospective


[DNA 58] Epsilon Eridani - «Retrospective» Cat # ... DNA 58
Release Date ... 10.08.2009
Genre ... Dark Ambient
Type ... mp3 VBR / FLAC Lossless


Dark ambient project Epsilon Eridani presents slightly unusual work. It's called "Retrospective" and is the set of the Mexican outfit's best tracks mixed and performed by Juan Pablo Valle, project mastermind.
Nine deep and multilayer dark ambient tracks imperceptibly segue into each other creating seamless majestic sound canvas. Field recording experiences mix with touches of religious voice samples as a frame for slowly changed spatial soundscapes.
This is the music to listen in loneliness and darkness with shut eyes. This is springboard for dreaming subconsciousness painting weird pictures in listener's inner vision.


»  The Large - Вода (Water)


[DNA 57] The Large - «Вода (Water)» Cat # ... DNA 57
Release Date ... 30.07.2009
Genre ... Dark Ambient, Experimental
Type ... mp3 VBR / FLAC Lossless


The third The Large work in DNA Production catalogue continues with psychedelic worlds created by Finnish maestro.
The same melancholic and introversive looped sound constructions are inserted in unevenly pulsating claustrophobic ambient spaces. Spaces where sound winds were caught and locked. The winds which cast in your face sometimes heap of rustling noises, sometimes scraps of somebody's conversation...

Stairs... Winding staircases leading sometimes upwards, sometimes downwards. The way repeated over and over again. The way without end and without beginning...

It consists of four shaky and intricate structures with ambient inclusions which accentuate emotional line of the album - contemplation, estrangement, sadness and calm.

Release Date ... 30.06.2009
Genre ... Ambient, Industrial, Spoken Words
Type ... mp3 VBR / FLAC Lossless


This release is an introduction to Parchim existentialist work called "City".
The City eats and breathes. Slick wormy life crawls in its womb, and there are parallel worlds crawling like a snake. Sleeping bodies melt, and somewhere in the City faces of Eternity overcome midnight tints and the grip of human factor.
Even dying, you become a part of City's body, its thoughts and wishes everyday translation. Like an immense bundle of fears and depression, with naked soul and flesh you presses your lips to City's mouth and feet. But sometimes it wants blood...

»  Necrasota - Tortures


[DNA 49] Necrasota - «Tortures» Cat # ... DNA 49
Release Date ... 20.05.2009
Genre ... Power Electronics
Type ... mp3 VBR / FLAC Lossless


"Death comes in a moment, in a moment that only faith knows. Death is the moment, the moment is death. Each breath we die, and next breath we are reborn. Each orgasm we die, and so we are reborn. Each sleep is like to die, and the awakening is to be reborn. I'm feeling always in a process, between life and death. I don't feel the passing time. The past doesn't exist; it's only an echo of noise in my mind. The future is destroyed because I live for the moment and I never see any future in front of me."
(Marco Corbelli, Atrax Morgue)

"Life to the great majority is only a constant struggle for mere existence, with the certainty of losing it at last."
(Arthur Schopenhauer)

"Modern torture chambers with holes for seeing and breathing. Dull perception vanity, scent of an urban cemetery, violet coloured death, serial murderers, heaven's doors, sad trees, side streets rust.
Here is the wind which sways bodies through eyeholes tearing it apart. There is a faint hope, and shabby ceiling draws a loop.
Everything will be alright!"

Release Date ... 10.05.2009
Genre ... Noise, Industrial, Experimental
Type ... mp3 VBR / FLAC Lossless


This album is consists of spontaneously composed soundworks created in 2000-2002. Clear, abstract and 100% electronic sound made a snapshot of author mental state and describes world around him.
Originally all these works were short projects created using the method of "compose-listen-forget". But times passed by and new cycles begin. Outer world keeps its state of unsteadiness and transiency…
All you see now is a semblance, not reality...
