BS062 Radio For The Daydreamers - Praying for the Be​(​a​)​st

"away from my room,
it is only light I can hate,
for it is only light I can not be.

"Praying for the Be(a)st" is the second "Act" of the triptych with the same name. This section is a narrative of our character's struggle to find a cure to the plague that his mind has become after visiting Mother Superior in the first act. After tiresome tries to tie a connection with the outside world, a lack of power and therefore, a need for a better perspective is imperative.

The album follows the character as he tries to find shelter in the shades of gray and learns to adapt to any means necessary to get rid of any short-term turmoils. While the real world seems more and more distant, he sees himself as the strongest force in his universe. Creating demons to fight and stars to dismantle, future is not for a few days still." - Radio For The Daydreamers

BS061 Cameron Steele - Orpheus

“Orpheus was a musician from Greek mythology who's wife was sent to the underworld. He traveled there to retrieve her and she was released under the condition that Orpheus did not turn to look at her until they were both out of the underworld. As soon as he was out of the underworld, he turned to look and his wife disappeared because they were not both out yet.

The music has a lot to do with those feelings, as well as the essence of each of the Greek Olympian Gods that the songs are named after.” - Cameron Steele

BS060 Raining Cloud - Dreamscapes Volume 1

"Dreamscapes Volume 1 is a collaborative album which arose from discussions Joanne Gabriel and I had in early 2010; particularly An Aerial View of Red Earth, which was inspired by a discussion we had about flying dreams. This piece alludes to dream images of flying over the red soil of north-eastern Arizona. The remaining pieces were inspired by images drawn from remembrances of dreams - dream images - and fragments of dreams.

This album attempts to communicate the essence of these images." - Geronimodeleon

BS059 Nature Circuit - Fuck This, Tilted Field

Nature Circuit’s first “album,” Fuck This, Tilted Field, mixes elements of previous releases (most notably the power electronics of Songs in the Key of Death) with many new ideas and sound sources, producing a much wider range of textures. The range of the album is notable as well in that it mixes “heavier” tracks with quieter pieces. Recommended to fans of noise, power electronics, drone, and depressing music in general.

BS056 Marc Broude - Medicine

"Overall, it is very hard for me to describe just how I feel about Marc Broude’s “Medicine”. Though I do listen to a lot of experimental music, this album has taken me to a new dimension that I just can’t fully comprehend. The dark and disturbing atmospheres are magnificent, and every element on this album works to create a very gloomy and depressing mood, whether it be the jazz guitars, the haunting singing bowls, or even the harmonicas or accordions in the end track. The album is also very well produced, and at times, the songs do have a great arrangement to them. However, on other occasions, the songs break linear fashion, in that where there is usually a climax or a build-up, it is very hard to distinguish here. Drums can enter, but they never build to anywhere except to cut off abruptly, as well as atmospheres can continue on for very long periods of time, with very slow and rarely evolving textures occurring throughout. Does it sound like a mixture of Lustmord and Scorn? Yes. Is it a very minimal and industrial album? Indeed, yes. Has Marc Broude successfully created an eccentric mix of avant-garde jazz and dark ambient soundscapes? That will be up to you to decide, but in my opinion, he’s come pretty darn close. In fact, much closer than any other musician has. If you are a fan of Lustmord, Lull, Scorn, dark ambient, avant-garde jazz, or just flat-out strange music in general, this will most likely appeal to you. However, please note that this album is not for everyone, nor is it necessarily for the faint of heart at times as well. Would I recommend it? Most definitely. 8 out of 10 stars.." - Ian Felpel

BS055 Joewl Levis - Broken Eart

"The album cover was painted by my 4 year old son. Eart is reference to the Earth, being broken so loosing the H. Its a concept that came to me in the 80's. The actual recordings were based on 3 war movies. An isreali film called Kippur, cros of Iron and waterloo." - Joewl Levis

BS054 Kid Feardive - Kid Feardive

"The idea here is to create naïve music with an avant-garde edge. About half the tracks are essentially songs--short pieces with melodies and repeating sections--but made with extremely harsh sounds. They're melodic noise, so to speak. The other half are also noisy, but longer and free-form with no structure at all other their own sonic personalities, and the use of very simple kraut-rock influenced beats.

A SENSIBLE GRAVITY (VOLUME TWO)

"I think ‘Gogmagog’ is a lost classic, a real timeless masterpiece. All I could find out about the release was this on Discogs - http://www.discogs.com/Folding-Staircase-Gogmagog/release/740094

I bought this cassette in the mid eighties. It was for sale via the Coil mailing list, back in the day when things existed, a time when there were real tangible objects.

In between side one and two of ‘Gogmagog’ I have placed some of my field recordings. I made the flute recordings by a street musician on a very cheap cassette recorder. They were recorded in Kathmandu in the very early 90’s.

Following this is a cassette recording that was given to me in Siwa, Egypt. Unfortunately I have no idea who the artists are playing on this.

After this I have placed another field recording I made in Kathmandu, this time of a street musician singing and playing a small bowed instrument much like a violin.

BS052 Radio For The Daydreamers - Mother Superior and Her Fields of Migraine

After the first album, Radio for the Daydreamers have worked on defining their sound much more and have tried to create a balance of different elements(/genres/styles/whathaveyou) of music. We have collaborated with some amazing artists recently, and have thence created "Praying for the be(a)st", a tryptich following a creative non-fiction story of a faustian character. Our intentions with this album, were to take elements from avant garde jazz, classical music, black metal and electronic music and create an amalgamation.

"Mother Superior and Her Fields of Migraine" is the first installment of the Praying for the be(a)st tryptich. This section tells the story of our character indulging in misery, self-realization, seclusion, developing phobias, anxieties and a need to break out to help his own mind. Accepting negativities, even though it is clear that the consequences of those negativities would be grim. To accept evil just to get some purpose. This section of the story takes place in a single room. We hope the music is picturesque enough for you to immerse yourselves into this story.

“Dabbe will appear, closed to judgement day. Will shake the world" - from Turkish film "D@bbe" (2006) Director: Hasan Karacadag

"The word 'Dabbe' appears in a number of verses of the Qur'an, although Surat an-Naml: 82 is the only one that refers to this particular event that will happen in the final times. When we set out the features of the 'Dabbe' as it appears in this verse, the following picture emerges:
1. The Dabbe is a moving, living thing.
2. The Dabbe is the product of the earth.
3. The Dabbe is a thing or creature that speaks and gives a particular message, which is addressed to all of mankind." - End of Times

BS042 Пограничное Состояние - Узнай себя

За время восстановления состава проекта "Пограничное Состояние" и была записана эта великолепная программа, лишённая ударных и баса. остались только гитара, вокал и синтезатор. Ничего более - всё было записано на хромовую плёнку французского производства, что придало записи ещё большую пушистость.
То, что вы услышите - одна из версий звучания текстовой концепции Константина Божьева в аранжировке (и, местами, музыке) Виталия Электронойзова.
