drone

The second five song selection by urufixx. Swedish dark ambient & neoclassical composer Peter Bjärgö, The Dead Sea, P.D. Wilder, Voice of the Seven Thunders & Talvihorros. More drone, post-rock, ambient and psychedelia then you can shake a stick at.

Tardigrades are polyextremophiles and are able to survive in extreme environments that would kill almost any other animal.

Five song selection feat. Mark McGuire – Sun Araw – Dead Luke – Neokarma Jookla Trio – Aidan Baker. Drony, Ritualistic, lo-fi soundscape material.

One of the remaining masterpieces from 2009 on the list is La Barca by the master of aural alchemy Thomas Köner. La Barca his first offering in five years, is a matchless soundscapes album; an inimitable blend of field recordings, subtle synths and restless moods. Out on Fario, sister label to Fear Drop, limited to 600 copies.

Without doubt the most heart-rending noise & drone album since Burning Star Core’s Blood Lightning 2007, a testimony to the fall of an Empire, the desolation after an apocalypse, or the soundtrack to nuclear meltdown, blink and the LPs are gone.

We overlooked the debut of Julian Lynch, the joint ruler of the New Jersey hazeadelics scene (with Matt Mondanile of Ducktails & Real Estate fame) in 2009. Not unlike the previous “Garden is Adventure EP”, “Orange you Glad” is a unique mixture of hazy memories, childhood nostalgia and dreamy cinematics.

Urufixx selects 5 songs from the parallel world of ambient, noise, drone & doom. Bones of Seabirds, Yoga, Marc Broude, Infinite Body, Necro Deathmort. Enjoy or should I say, suffer?

The queen of drone & tape music, Eliane Radigue is now 78 years old. Important Records has reissued two of her earlier works, Triptych and Vice Versa, so that younger droneheads can experience the intensity of her sounds. 1970’s Vice Versa predates even her usage of synths and it’s composed of tape feedback!.
