The Time Of The Ancient Astronaut

Plaintive trumpet calls are looped across pulsing beats that propel us into sheets of metal crashing a…
Third Segment
2009 release ** "Composed and recorded between the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009, Third Segment emphasize even more on the basic idea of 3eem: electronic rhythmic structures, alteration of sound sources, textures of saxophone and guitar between minimal riffs and short glimpses into improvisation, a sort of tribal rite making its way, overlapping between the certainty of live sound and its deviated interpretation. In Digipak."
Evocation
2007 release ** "Demons, the duo of Steve Kenney and Wolf Eyes' Nate Young have been getting a fair amount of attention recently, having put the feelers out via a number of low-key cassette releases over the past year or two, eventually delivering this, their magnum opus for the scene-leading No Fun imprint. Evocation takes noise music into an entirely more intriguing realm than the usual dirge-bound excursions emanate from the US underground. In fairness, they're all good and well, but an album…

We Bring Light
2011 release ** "Extreme and uncompromising electronic stimulations, vibrations and synthetic pulsations floating off, disturbing buzzes and algorithmic waves in expansion, fragmented and deconstructed Synthetic Chaos... But also hints of hypnotic unfinished musical sketches, clips of embryonic melodic sequences, fragments of human voices, oscillating electronic pads, distorsions, improbable synthetic clones of nature sounds and noises... An intransigent work of disturbing and destabilizing elec…
Quiet Songs From Misty Places
2011 release ** "Frail and delicate ambient atmospheres, clusters of rarefied piano notes lying on discreet drones, soft and evanescent clarinet riffs, suggesting and catching natural sounds... Light and ethereal pastel-coloured musical plots... Eight tracks, one hour of suspended and quiet sonic passages, flowing like discreet background, or to listen/see in a passionate mood, dreaming in silence, lying in gloom... Wonderful ambient stuff from these two Russian artists in the same vein of some …
Night sessions

Into

She then shifted her attention from the organization of s…

Akira started to play music while in art college in London, meeting the people from ‘Insine’ label and after moving to Berlin playing electronic music and being a hip-hop DJ. As Lambent he doesn’t use any computers, just samplers and synthesizers in a live approach. This is quite important to realize when you listen to this music, because once you know this, the music makes much more sense.”
