Ten tracks that coalesce the growing puissance of the Somnambulant (Corpse,
no longer) label that built a foundation of high quality dark ambient,
noise, power electronics/death industrialism CD-R's. Crumbling the
verdigris of old, the artists (including the collaboration between
Axone/Marspiter: The Great Despisers) explore; 'A psychoacoustic
investigation of "The Twelve Caesars" as immortalized by Gaius Suetonius
Tranquillus. From Julius (49 BC) to Domitian (96 AD)'. By aural
legerdemain a banquet of one-hundred fourty-five years is prepared for
macabre feast, or at the very least, the illusion thereof.
Somnambulant breaks the barriers of 'Various Artist'/Compilation by the
utilization of the aforementioned theme, and while each track is markedly
different from one another, the underlying capaciousness for the gluttony,
sadism, and violence is replete in all figureheads. Unsettling and crowded
the tracks waver incessantly in cacchinations of broken fragmental samples,
dancing lewdly as they flitter to the surface like memories and instances
of each Caesar's life, rarely sustaining for long bursts before the
bachhnalian orgies drag down each moment. While drones do sustain passages
of the music, overall it is chaotic sonic sculptures smashed upon one
another that deliver such a potent mix. Without doubt an unrecognized
prodigious hubris carries the aqualine roman figureheads into a new error
of oppression and orgy.
A professionaly duplicated disc, silk screened in jewel case with four
page colour booklet come packaged with a series of five heavy-stock card
printed with the graphite portraits of the Caesars by Chris Donovan
(approximately 8x5 inches). An excellent compilation that will sell out
soon, so support the artists and the label if you enjoy this music.
NOTE: on track 7, by Survival Unit, there is a clip that is on the CD and
not the result of a bad rip, the disc was ripped straight from shrinkwrap.

contribute to the growing sale losses of record companies.
Unfortunately our style primarily targets small, independant labels
that need sales to survive.

sites or P2P tools; if more and more receive their music from the net,
artists and labels will have to face even less sells than nowadays.
Please do not consider this release as a substitute to the original, but
only as a way to check out and learn about new music.
We absolutely do not approve of DJs or other individuals that earn
money from pirated music - Don't let them get their hands on it!
By buying the albums you like you disperse the guilt we feel by
releasing this music - Enjoy the music and be fair with the artists!
YOUR support is required to keep them financially alive and producing!
