"It's that time again. That mysterious time, which only occurs
a few times each year. Like an equinox or a solstice. When
strange shimmering sonic clouds drift lazily across the sea
and land gently in our earholes. That's right, it's time for
some new sounds from one of our favorite labels in the world,
Celebrate Psi Phenomenon. This instalmment comes from the
mysterious Nether Dawn, which is the work of Mr. Antony
Milton, who just so happens to run another one of our favorite
labels, PseudoArcana. Milton has spent much of his time lately
making big noises, and causing much sonic destruction
performing his own brand of free-drone-metal as Mirag, but
here returns to his drone-drift roots. Outer Dark is a
gorgeously pastoral spacescape, fuzzy and washed out, huge
drifts of shimmer and wide expanses of sun baked ambience.
Delicate and crystalline, melodies lurk innocently beneath
thick swaths of sweet buzz or dash furtively and barely
noticed through deep swells of rich rumbling sound. Notes
soaked in reverb float lazily through twilit skies, like
listening to the most beautiful music with your ears crossed,
so everything is just a little bit fuzzy, a little bit
smeared, notes become tinly little shooting stars, their tonal
colors turned into little musical trails drifting into the
ether, while guitars are stretched into soft gauzy sheets,
everything warm and wonderfully dreamlike. Beautiful!"
(Aquarius)
"Brand new album from recent Black Boned Angel recruit and
Pseudo Arcana label boss Anthony Milton. Quiet waves of
electronic drone pass through slow lungs of heavy memories,
high lonesome tones, totally epic mediaeval/psychedelic rock
rituals and what sounds like some desolately-treated field
recordings. A very personal album and a great way to float
through the early hours." (Volcanic Tongue)
