Given that it's film music it varies in style and tone. From narrative and holding in suspense electronics to some proper heavy riffage. “Klechdy” is a horror movie so don’t expect light treatment as the soundtrack is an integral part and a proper representation of what you see on the screen.
Ulesa is an entity of unknown origin and prefers to stay that way.What we're dealing with here is a short but rewarding album of dark and ritual tribalism. This is about a half hour ride of rhythmic ambience. Strongly reverbed voices are playing the main role here.
The new edition in the refreshed design returned to our catalog after a few years of non-existence. One of the most interesting publications of the Bremen duo and the best-selling album in the several-year history of the Zoharum.
“Substrate” consists of 2 long, harmonic ambient tracks. Heavily processed guitars are surrounded by field recordings and subtle electronics creating soothing dronescapes. It’s one of those records which you can play all day long on repeat without fear of getting bored or annoyed, as with each listen you’ll discover new layers of musicality. This music is...
"Time & Form" is the debut of the duo hailing from Tri-City. The material was recorded at the turn of April and May 2018, shortly after Natt and Akton gave birth to DREN. The music on the album is characterized by eclecticism. Over the course of eight electronic works, you can hear strong influences of industrial, ritual sounds and widely understood...
On this album, Theta unleashes powerful, dense and textural music that you can almost touch. Altintzoglou states that his origins are rooted in hardcore punk and whatever it may be – punk, black or doom metal - you can clearly hear that guitar sound is the center of his inspirations and sources. As bold as this statement may be - Maeror Tri comes to mind...
work here as an intronautic vessel in which you descend into the depths of subconsciousness.As much as at first this appears to be a demanding piece of work it’s utterly rewarding and eventually makes you wanna listen to it on and on and on...
Troum returns to Zoharum with DA-PU-RI-TO-JO - a collection of tracks taken from 7” singles (and one digital EP) that were released through the years 2004-2016. Drone masters offer 12 dreamscapes that range from soothing, etheral and meditative through emotional and mysterious to dark, industrialesque and nightmarish.
Among 9 tracks of the album Kostia and Blacha present their skills of sound design and quite intricate arrangement. Artificial sounding and non-obvious rhythms are enriched by very emotional, melodic pads and synths giving a great impression of symbiosis of a man and machine.
Schrottersburg (city of Płock in German) is well known to post punk fans due to 3 well received albums and a no nonsense demo. What makes them different from the other bands (except for great music of course) is their ability to incorporate other musical genres while maintaining the new wave core. Here post punk meets kraut/space/psychedelic or even noise...

Developing his sound from previous works, on this album Kryptogen Rundfunk uses more acoustic instruments (mouth harp, bowed guitar, metal plate, singing bowl, voice), yet stays true to his favourite array of synthesizers, effect units and of course his trademark shortwave radio noises and transmission interceptions. With all this set-up he creates a...
‘Nashtur’ is a set of three compositions, of slightly somnambulistic character, delivered in the style of Noir Ambient. The triptych “Nox, Nox-Lunaris, Nox-Lux” induces trance based on low-pitched, repetitive melodic phrases emerging from sonic magma, the monolithic structure of the album. The music arranged here in such a way, as if it was to create a...
