mobdividual - Sounds One Hears Is Music

Genre: Acoustic/Drone/Post-Rock

Format: mp3 | CBR320kbps

Country: USA

Size: 64 Mb

Tracklist:

01. "Life is the leaves which shape and nourish a plant,

02. but art is the flower which embodies its meaning."

03. - Charles Rennie Mackintosh

04. ...sounds one hears is music...

Description: and the very new EP from Brian Elyo also known as mobdividual is out now. Being pretty much a continuation of 'The Windows to () Music Were Open' it brings lots of fresh moments. Having kept the hypnotizing acoustic ambience, due to the use drums it sounds closer to post-rock music. Starting listening to the record you get a perfect introduction from first two tracks, which fully show the atmosphere of the whole record. The third track - Charles Rennie Mackintosh - is being a great and almost epic culmination of the record, while the last one sounds pretty different from others and paints the ending line of the EP.

…kind of like a roller coaster design where i’ve tried to dictate a certain experience but also allow for the individual to take away their own experience… to do that i have to make sure certain ideas aren’t too low or too narrow or your head wont hit the side… ‘you must be so tall to ride’ type-idea… just trying to make sure you can relax and enjoy the ride; hopefully you’ll be free enough to look around, get distracted (this isn’t school, music isn’t life, you don’t have to pay attention…); think about something else, have your own experience…

音一 - 一

音一 - 一

Genre: Noise/Drone/Experimental/Minimalism

Format: mp3 | CBR192kbps

Country: Japan

Size: 38 Mb

Tracklist: 

01. 一

02. 二

03. 三

04. 四

Description: probably the most experimental album that have been posted on this blog so far. Under these symbols are four experimental noisy sounds that attract you with their dark atmosphere. A completely new thing to try, if you've been listening to instrumentally based and musically oriented artists. 音一 (a sound) hails originally from Shinjō, Yamagata but is now a permanent resident of the Sendagaya area of Shibuya, Tokyo. Feedback, clicks, glitches, ghostly voices, drones, textures and found sounds are all things which go towards the creation of an 音一 composition, dark and moody vibes with an isolationist bent is what’s going on here. 音一 employs a host of portable looping and sound manipulating instruments in the recording process, often constructing tracks in situ for use in larger compostions back in the studio and even on occasion building fully realised pieces whilst out in the field (c). Totally worthy to listen, if you are already a fan of experimental sounds or just trying to broaden your understanding of what music is.

Country: United Kingdom

Size: 44 Mb

06. When It Gets Dark Outside I Tend To Go And Play Inside

07. Chords

08. Inertia

09. Non-Romantic Melancholic Waltz

Description: this is a EP of a musician-experimentalist from Shropshire, UK. Like a modern day romantic, EL Heath finds beauty all around him - in childhood memories; in the countryside around his Shropshire home; in early morning light and in dreams. It’s this beauty that provides inspiration for his music: he churns out song after song after song, barely finishing one track before he rushes onto the next. The world compels this man to make music (c). Stylistically Winter Soundtrack is pretty much a collection of atmospheric ambient tunes and drones. From the very beginning and until the end this album keeps creating a special mood, causes various reflections and flashbacks in mind. Moments from the past life, weather landscapes, everything you can associate atmospheric sounds with. Totally worthy to at least give it a listen.

Bird From The Abyss - II

Bird From The Abyss - II

Genre: Drone Doom/Experimental/Ethnic/Psychedelic

Format: mp3 | CBR128kbps

Country: Finland

Size: 36 Mb

Tracklist:
01. Crawling Monuments
02. Travelling With The Bird - Part 1
03. Kyyn Laulu
04. From The Altars Of Fire To The Kingdom Of Ereskigal
05. Travelling With The Bird - Part 2 - Back To The Abyss

Description: a perfect work of a oneman anti-band, that hails from Finland’s primeval forests,
and combines drone/doom(metal) with acoustic elements; folk and world music to form ritualistic compositions. Atmosphere of this project can be fully described by the next passage:

Bird from the Abyss comes from Finland, a land where nighttime dominates the dayside and where inside deep, dark forests still dwell the ancient creatures of the mythological north. But the music of BFTA is more exotic, more Mediterranean - its aura is one culled from the ancient Egyptian ethos, its ritualistic nature is foreboding and sinister. When one hears the music of BFTA. they will uncover many styles from doom to ambient to folk to progressive- all synthesized and textured in a way which births a new and completely original dark sound. (c)

This album, combining experimental hypnotic sounds and ethnic elements with rich variety of styles, sounds as one long trip through the world of different visions, created in your mind. Still remains undiscovered, and that's why it is totally worthy to be listened. You can find Bird From The Abyss music and download it for free/listen it for free using links below:
