Release Notes:
--------------
The ultimate deep listening experience from two masters of dark ambient. A slow
descent into the blackened watery abyss, where light cannot reach.
The first release from Sleep Research Facility since 2012's "Stealth" (Cold
Spring) is inspired by the deep sea ocean floor. The Canadian-based composer
explores notions of awareness and perception in the sub/unconscious listener.
Focusing primarily on sound bereft of rhythm based energies, SRF provides an
environments wherein the music adds texture to the silence. Using form without
structure and concentrating on space as opposed to narrative, SRF entertains the
idea that music can reside in the very fabric of sound itself. The brand new
material here was created specifically for this split release.
Taking inspiration from the beautiful, but often harsh landscapes and
environments of his home on Anglesey, North Wales, Llyn Y Cwn has built on the
nautical theme of "Du Y Moroedd". These tracks are based on field recordings
relating to the ocean, and could be seen as a companion piece to the album.
'Dale Dawn' features a recording of the dawn chorus made from the floating
pontoon at Dale, Pembrokeshire. 'Pebble' includes the sound of waves crashing on
a Dorset cobble beach, thousands of rocks colliding in chorus. 'Doppler Current
Profiler' is based on the sound of an ADCP, an acoustic sonar instrument used to
measure water currents - a 600Khz ping slowed to a heartbeat.

Track 2 is 21 seconds of silence separating the work of the two Artists.
