2006 3"CDR split between two French creations.
Dark ambient meets industrial ambient! Limited to 50 copies.
STIGMA DIABOLICUM - project of Luc Mertz (ZARACH BAAL THARAGH, WOLOK).
Dark ambience with vocals 'spoken' as if from a frail man on his death
bed. Sedated, insulated "Landscape Dream" is a ten-minute stream of
consciousness of a man's abstract vision. Culminates as the atmosphere
becomes darker, the voice more painful as it eventually escapes into the
cosmos..
JeFF creates more industrial tainted ambience, his 24th release so far
since 2003! A simple meditative pattern is the centre piece for most of
the 11:30. Playing repeatedly while electronic distortions intrude the
space - from guitar feedback, noise to a short doom-paced drum section.
The entire piece comes together with excellent contrasts using several,
perfectly contained, layers. Finishing with the same simple pattern
repeated-now deformed-with added noise displaying an uglier side of the
earlier sounds.
