CIRCULAR / INADE - 'Deep Space Illumination' LP (Skogholt)
(2008) A fine document from the live performances of Loki Foundation labelmates Circular and Inade, which took place in December 2007. Four tracks by each Dark Ambient project, in superb quality. All material was recorded directly from the mixing desk and was mastered by Secretlab. Tracklist: CIRCULAR: The Acceleration of Space, Swirling Sculptures, Volcanic & Fervent, The Conclusion Of The Mind. INADE: Signals From 68 Dimensions Part I, Abandoned Inferno, The Quiet Room, The Conquest Of Being Separated Part I. Ltd x 333 copies in a textured sleeve. ACT FAST!
(2007) Ex.Order disrupt your synapses with "Corporate Control". Ten new tracks of an immensely raw sonic and violent aesthetic, constructed through dark throbbing machine noises, crushing rhythmic layers and vocals. Highly explosive heavy electronics, uncompromising and provocative both sonically and visually. An unforgiving tour de force capturing the perfection of disorder. The absolute response to the nightmare that is the world we live in. Ex.Order is the alter-ago of Inade.

FJERNLYS - 'Ascending Triads & Luminous Arcs' 2 x CD (Loki Foundation)
(2006) Behind this project hides one of Inade's masterminds - Knut Enderlein. On this first disc, the songs layer cosmic and synthetic sounds and go on tracing according to the principle harmony in the music, their acoustic space feeling very expansive. The voices creep crosswise into sounds and effects to lunar spheres and solar places. The five remixes and interpretations of ANTLERS MULM, BAD SECTOR, FIRST LAW and LOVESPELL on the second disc support the complex character of the whole release and expand the into a new style of Ambient songs. More 'song' based than Inade, Fjernlys reminds of fellow Loki act Predominance. Presented in a double jewel case with a very nice slipcase to finish.
(2001) "Geomatic have been exploring the possibilities of underground audio for over a decade, and Control Agents is their first full length CD, a musical examination of the artists' preoccupation with mental manipulation, in the form of insidious yet alluring rhythms, and passages of paranoia." An excellent new album of darkness and fear, close to INADE or DAGDA MOR. Recommended.

INADE - 'Aldebaran' CD (Cold Spring CSR13CD)
(2007) Debut CD from the masters of Black Ambient, available again after 6 years! "Aldebaran" is the black sun of the secret knowledge. This work focuses on the German Vril society myths of 'Aldebaran', from which universal spirituality is said to originate. One hour of immense walls of dark, brooding atmospherics, pulsating anthems of the universal power, mixed with themes of heritage and history. The ultimate document of deep and cavernous dark ambient.
(2007) Due to huge demand, Loki are re-releasing the legendary "Burning Flesh" CD. The limited edition (500 copies) digipak version from 2000 collected the original 1993 tapes with added bonus material. This new version was sympathetically remastered at Secretlab in June 2007 and has new artwork. The soundscape of "Burning Flesh" is a pitch-black ambience in which peculiar sounds scramble about, igniting a rising wave of gloom, driven by the slow clatter of tribal hooves upon unearthly terrain. Highly recommended to all fans of Inade's unearthly Dark Ambient sound.
INADE - 'Colliding Dimensions' 4 x CD Boxset (Loki Foundation)
(2005) The long requested compendium that closes a circle from near the starting point of the project to their Peryt Shou release. All material of this set was recorded and sculptured during live shows and rehearsal sessions from 1995 to 2002 and was especially selected and mastered to receive high quality audio recordings with no compromise in sound. A third of the tracks have not been released in any form yet and this release brings back as well a lot of long sold out material like Vitriol, Flood Of White Light and more in new and powerful live versions. Four CDs and a glossy booklet presented in a beautiful box with fantastic artwork!

(2008) A collection of studio works from the last few years, recorded during several sessions - remixed, re-constructed and re-edited in 2005. This release originally accompanied the Inade Spring Equinox concert in Tokyo. "Samadhi State" illuminates the space of reality and the luminous arcs of dreams. Samadhi is a over-conscious experience that lies beyond waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. A perfect condition in vigil, a condition of absolute consciousness. It is the final goal of everything and the highest form of self-possession. The Samadhi State is the fourth dimension, where the infinite eternity prevails. A stunning Dark Ambient release. 2nd edition in jewelcase with glossy artwork.
INADE - 'The Crackling Of The Anonymous' CD (Loki Foundation)
(2001) This dark and hallucinatory masterwork, is constructed via the never heard utterances of the void, while tapping into the psyche of the impossible. A stunning dark ambient release that defies all logic because it creates its own! Gorgeous 6-panel digipak by the masters of Dark ambience!! A must-have for fans of Lustmord!
JARL - 'Out Of Balance Part I – XVII' CD (Malignant Records)
(2003) Side project of Erik Jarl, member of the revered and immensely powerful heavy electronics outfit IRM (Cold Meat). JARL doesn’t come with the aggression of that project, but it does evoke similar feelings of instability and dementia via more atmospheric means. The disc consists of 17 tracks in total, each flowing into each other, with the early pieces having an almost cosmic heaviness (ala INADE) – pulsing and weighty, the sounds of winds sweeping across a barren land and distant orb. As it progresses, however, the seeds of profound sickness and decay are planted and begin to blossom; the tones and textures becoming more surreal and unsettling, the drones a bit more persistent and penetrating, abandoning listeners in a white walled room to confront their inner demons and degenerating psyche.

NEBRIS - 'Bleak Angels' CD (Dystonia EK)
'Bleak Angels' is the second release for Nebris (ex-Column). Amplified organic materials (bones, gut strings) and minerals (fossils, meteorite fragments, stones) were used to produce three lengthy tracks. Each piece has an expansive backdrop of rotating sounds, crackles, highly processed and multi-layered voices. There is a great sense of desolation around this music; of ambient industrial post nuclear emptiness. Bleak indeed. Executed with great care and skill, with a keen eye for details and variation, this is an excellent work in the genre. File next to Inade, Zoät Aon etc. 6-panel digipak. Ltd x 423. Canadian import.
The debut release of Polish-born artist Szymon Tankiewicz, 'Submerged' is a dark ambient tour de force. Visually and sonically enveloping, this is an album of space and texture, slowly revealing a psychoactive soundscape of majestic, arcing timbres, circadian buzzes, and expansive drones. Heavy, and cosmically weighty in the beginning, 'Submerged' evolves into something more minimalist and serene, radiating a celestial beauty, yet becoming even more bleak and suffocating as it progresses over it‘s 66 minute time frame. A must for dark ambient purists. 6 panel digipak, with artwork by K. Enderlein (LOKI). Mastered by Thomas Garrison (Control). File next to Yen Pox / Lustmord / Inade / Caul.
