SIMULACRA - 'There Is A Fountain Filled With Blood' CD (ConSouling Sounds / No Angels Productions)
Nearly 45 minutes of dark droning soundscapes, where once in a while lighter ambient passages penetrate the darkness. "Giant plateaus are slowly moving, reverberating the air with deep subterranean drones, flowing and ebbing in slow waves taking you a little deeper all the time in this sonic experience... Inside a Void is Belgian dark ambient act Simulacra back with red drones from a fountain filled with blood... There is a Fountain Filled With Blood does sound deeper and wider which makes the atmosphere more intense, darker and oppressive. These graphic drones are slowly moving as they are heavy in weight under their monolithic structure. Simulacra’s dark ambient is very minimal in approach as the changes are just coming very slow, but its progression is eminent. Its mastermind Miguel Boriau does take his time to let the sounds evolve. Deep rumbling drones with a haunted atmosphere reflecting feelings of sadness and solitude with sometimes a trace of melody.... The finest and darkest drones for dreamers who are awake" (Gothtronic).

VA - 'Magnetic Fields & Zero Dimension Planes' CD (ConSouling Sounds)
It's very hard to define what exactly ambient and drone music is. It's a broad spectrum with hardly any boundaries and which is open to a lot of experiments. Sometimes gentle sounds without much variation, other times dream-evoking and oppressive rhythms. This compilation tries to do justice to this diversity, as the sound palette goes from monotone soundscapes and guitar drones over dark ambient and field recordings to electronic and warm ambient. Nearly all tracks are unreleased and/or exclusive to this release. Features: Blyndhæð (Blindhaed), Distant Fires Burning, IAM., Mirko Uhlig, Monotonos, [multer], N (16), Hihilum, Premonition Factory, Simulacra, Soundsketching and Tzesne. Comes in a foldout A2 poster (A5 package).
