08. Gravity's End - Thanatos

09. Gravity's End - Orion

Description: As long as shameless self-promotion is still considered to be extremely lame, I won't make an effort of reviewing this one. I'll just re-post a wonderful review of Recent Music Heroes on this self-released stuff.

This is a split album compiled of tracks by 3 talented artists. fydhws is a musician from Macedonia who used to develop one of the most intricate post-rock soundscapes worldwide at the moment. This might be described as an instance of instrumental rock music made up through the methodology based on sound art/sound modulation. On the other side, bc_ ranger (from Ukraine) and Gravity End`s (from Germany) play up more established yet excellent riff based epic rock sound borrowing from the realms of metal, musique concrète, and spoken word. However, all of those rich textures and majestic vibes are fulfilled with lots of good memories and endless melancholy. Beautiful. (original post here)

09. Empty Mailbox On The Wind Street

Description: an album of pure light sadness distilled through piano sounds from young Ukrainian composer who uses the moniker The Landwash Of Eternal Tranquility. His musical compositions are expressed with bright emotions, diluted with soft ambient parts, which gives his music a unique style and special sound (c). Slow, sometimes minimalistic yet emotionally fulfulled compositions create the appropriate atmosphere of hopeful melancholy, and ocassional use of percussion brings some post-rock intonations to the generally ambient soundscape. Well done, and totally worthy to give it a listen. You can find The Landwash Of Eternal Tranquility music and listen it for free/download it for free using links below:

Description: Happiness is an album, that appeared from nothing. The aim of it is happiness, even not happiness but its search. Album consists of two parts, Happiness itself (new songs) and That's pretty much the same thing (a compilation of previous works of The Cunt). Album is nervously calm, just on the edge of happiness. The idea of recording it appeared long time ago, but was realized only during the summer of 2010. First attempts of recording were made even in winter during small improvisations with Dmytro Moskalets (poet, musician, culturologist). This was Dmytro who played the piano pieces, which were parts of those improvisations (c).

Creation VI - Apeiros

Creation VI - Apeiros

Genre: Drone/Ambient

Format: mp3 | CBR320kbps 

Country: Ukraine 

 Size: 145 Mb

Tracklist:
01. Archetype Storage
02. Actually Infinite Deletion
03. Looped Superstring
04. Nonlocal Correlation

Description:  Apeiros (Greek word means "infinitely incognizable") is a term Plato used for description of primary matter which is out of principle of the form. Unlike the common matter of the perceived Universe, Apeiros has to contain determinacy principle as it should be the beginning for everything else. But also it means that Apeiros must stay indefinite. Thus here is an actualization of the transcendent into immanent.

«Apeiros» by Creation VI is an original picture of Universe where superstrings theory combines with Plato’s doctrine about the matter and Hindu universe conception combines with quantum mechanics.

The World here looks like united decentralized network where each element can express all others. The World as a universal wave function of indefinite number of vibrating superstrings which all are just monad essences cuts, indefinite archetypes that continuously actualize itself and thus create the stream of unboundedness. (c)

 Totally worthy to at least give it a listen. You can find Creation VI music and download it for free/listen it for free using links below:

Size: 87 Mb

Tracklist:

01. Advocatus Diaboli

04. Celestial Funerals (feat. Tenzin Sambu)

05. Revolver Theme

Description: third full-length album from experimental music duo from Ukraine released in 2011 actually summarizes their long way in developing their own unique sound. Named after the ancient tibetan ceremony, album perfectly creates dark and mystic atmosphere. The musical content of album is very rich and varies from atmospheric ambient parts to heavy sludgy moments. By the words of musicians this work is being a tribute of admiration of will and traditions of the tibetan people. Also musicians themselves define the style of all tracks as the mix of funeral doom and dark ambient, but despite all stylistic limits everyone can find in this album  something for himself. Totally worthy to at least give a listen. You can find Gamardah Fungus music and download it for free/listen it for free using links below:
