Streaming + DownloadIncludes high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more. Paying supporters also get unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app.
Download comes with all the full resolution images for the release. I wanted to include the video for 'Made With Five Seconds Of Silence', but the file-size is far too big, and making it low enough quality to fit in here really doesn't do the visuals justice.
I really hope you will give it 6 minutes of your time, at the link down below, lit up amongst my ramblings!
Instead, there is a bonus piano track called 'Soporific Keys'.Purchasable with gift cardname your price

Separated from the pack
Solitary but still integral
The path was carved a long time before the realisation
of where I had to go, to be where I was who I would be.

about
Oh, the irony of the long titles, and the subsequent ramble!
Half the fun of this album is the anticipation of what will (or won't) happen! For minimal techno fans as well as experimental / noise / wall / ambient / drone / glitch understanders.
Influences: Avantgarde and abstract everything. Om. Bong. Hardfloor. If Nolland Voyde and godNOISEgod collaborated. Martin Režný. Lorenzo Abattoir. The Aphex Twin. Squarepusher (what do you think about those two in that order? Yes or no? Everyone has their opinion)... anyway, I digress...
Film soundtracks. Epic music. Piano. Tiny sounds. Minimal fullness. Maximal emptiness. Weird humour in making, hearing and reading about music and its process. Noise and HNW although it's not harsh. Hearing things in sounds that maybe aren't there, and knowing that you won't hear this the same way I do.
For those who have the time to just listen closely without distraction for a magical amount of minutes. This album is how far along the way-out-there-weird-loops-and-hypnosis journey I am right now.
Welcome to the rest of the journey.

The sounds began forming for this one on September 25th 2022, and the concept and creations continued until March 28th 2023.
PART A - 3x6 minute strange sonics, all built from the initial minimal amount (see the first title for the clue).
PART B - 1x24 minute, slowly-evolving drone (do)OM (with no noise) wall for those with stamina and understanding of this style (hopefully since you are here, you have that). Made with voice and piano.
It was originally going to be an hour with 6x6 tracks, but I had 3 months not working on it and then I couldn't hear it any differently. It was luckily 42 minutes, so it felt like a sign to keep it that way. Until I decided to add an extra track in there... Oh, my brain!
I hope you oddball noiseniks enjoy listening close to this one.

Suspenseful and Eerie. Each track tells a story. Spirits haunting a boneyard and aliens scanning the wreckage of a battlefield are just some.of the images brought to mind.
