Jack Hertz - Stratosphere (38:58) This track is a special dedication to Pete Namlook who passed into the drone space on November 8, 2012. Some of my favorite works by Pete were the soundscapes he created on his own and with artists like Tetsuo Inoue. Mixing long form drone tracks and voices from news and archived sources was something he continued with long after it was a cliche in electronic music. Following a similar formula, I present, Stratosphere, in memoriam to the wonderful artist Pete Namlook. released 16 November 2012 Mixed live on on the air 2012/11/15 on StillStream.com.

Jack Hertz and Cousin Silas - Mosoq Karpay (10:18) 07. Jack Hertz and Cousin Silas - Chimbilaco (8:18) My new album "Jaguars & Shamen" with Cousin Silas is a journey into the dark realms of Amazonia. Inspired by the mystic visions of the Shaman and the trans-formative beings they become to transcend the material world. This music explores the mysterious cultures of the Amazon jungle that have been the home to indigenous cultures for 1,000s of years. About Jaguars and Shamans: The jaguar is important for shamans who often associate the jaguar as a spirit companion or nagual, which will protect the shamans from evil spirits and while they move between the earth and the spirit realm. In order for the shamans to combat whatever evil forces may be threatening, or for those who rely on the shamans for protection, it is necessary for the shamans to transform and cross over to the spirit realm. The jaguar is often as a nagual because of its strength, for it is necessary that the shamans "dominate the spirits, in the same way as a predator dominates its prey" (Saunders 1998:30). The jaguar is said to possess the transient ability of moving between worlds because of its comfort both in the trees and the water, the ability to hunt as well in the nighttime as in the daytime, and the habit of sleeping in caves, places often associated with the deceased ancestors. The concept of the transformation of the shaman is well documented in Mesoamerica and South America and is in particular demonstrated in the various Olmec jaguar transformation figures (Diehl, p. 106).

Jack Hertz - Night Wings (14:15) Wetlands is a collection of Intelligent Ambient Music compositions inspired by places of greenery and water where life abounds in ponds, marshes and swamps. These tracks stem from what I think of as impressionist music. The selection and organization of sounds are meant to evoke a memory of a place or environment that is part documentary and part hallucination. A wetland is a land area that is saturated with water, either permanently or seasonally, such that it takes on the characteristics of a distinct ecosystem. Primarily, the factor that distinguishes wetlands from other land forms or water bodies is the characteristic vegetation that is adapted to its unique soil conditions: Wetlands consist primarily of hydric soil, which supports aquatic plants.

Robert Scott Thompson - Earthquake Weather (Cosmic Fire) (4:45) # - 24Bit During the Pleistocene period 40,000 years ago, giant mammalian creatures roamed North America. Tar pits that formed when crude oil seeped to the surface through fissures in the Earth's crust. Would trap mastodons and other creatures in their molten grip. When predators came to feed, they were consumed as well. Prehistoric Tar Pit Music is a two and half hour compilation of sonic adventures into places that time has forgotten. Listen to the sounds of primordial landscapes, bubbling tar pits, and the echoes of life emerging from the deep earth. The idea for this compilation began in the Intelligent Ambient Music (IAM) group on Facebook. The result is the group effort that you can hear now. We hope that these compositions will entertain your imagination with a sonic documentary of what these prehistoric places may have been like. You are highly encouraged to explore more of the work by these artists at the links provided with each the artists' tracks. Please show your support by downloading their music and sharing it with others. released March 1, 2013 Cover painting by Charles R.

Cousin Silas - The Abandoned Resort (5:30) 24Bit This is my third collectively inspired selection of JG Ballard inspired tracks. Whilst I haven’t done a Ballard collection for some time now, all my albums since Ballard Landscapes 2 have had at least one track on there that has been related to ‘something’ Ballardian. I find his locations and moods so evocative and I really can’t see me ever consciously (or otherwise) stopping. The Ballard albums have proved to be some of my most popular albums and I think it would be naive of me to think it was just the music rather than the man who inspired them that attracts people to these albums. Either way, I do hope you enjoy this third collection and I would like to thank Jack Hertz for giving me the opportunity to be have had the chance to be fully inspired again by Ballard. released 04 March 2013 Cousin Silas: Synths and Guitars Cousin Silas was born in 1959 and raised in the Colne Valley in West Yorkshire.

Symatic Star and Jack Hertz - Two Worlds (10:44) 05. Symatic Star and Jack Hertz - Return from Shambhala (10:36) Shambhala, a mystical kingdom beyond the snow peaks of the Himalayas, has long been recorded in stories from Tibet and Mongolia. Some sources include folk stories, Tibetan Buddhism and pre-Buddhist - Bon Shamanism. A land described as a hidden valley with a line of enlightened kings guarding the highest wisdom, for a time when all harmony in the world outside will seem lost. According to some legends the King of Shambhala and his warriors will then emerge vanquishing the forces of evil and establishing a golden age. The tracks on this album represent five selected themes from Shambhala stories and can be interpreted as representing both a physical journey to an enigmatic land and as an inner journey. Dedicated to a Free Tibet The Chinese invasion of Tibet has resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Tibetans and the imprisonment and torture of thousands more. In 1959 the Dalai Lama, Tibet’s political and spiritual leader, fled into exile in India followed by over 100,000 Tibetans and established the Tibetan Government-in Exile. Awareness can help.

The meeting of two craftsmen has resulted in some exquisite sounds that explore ambient, exotic and orchestral landscapes. Listen and be transported to their Menagerie of Clouds. released 05 August 2013 Ari Porki's music is inspired by northern nature and four extreme seasons. This closeness of the nature obligatory comes through Ari's music even it’s only through simple synthesizer sound, field-recording or sample. As music has been part of Ari Porki's life for decades, there would be some kind of highlights of Ari's past, evolving from his sub-consciousness. Christopher Alvarado is inspired by the people he works with. A collaboration with Ari Porki brought new ideas and a new thought process to executing the right sound to match Ari's dark calmness. Being a veteran of music since 1985(Twilight Transmissions, Harsh Reality,23 Extacy), it is a nice change to start working with Ari Porki in the realm of beauty in creating clouds(the ambient body).

Ambient always was one of my favorite genres, since the time I discovered the electronic music genre. This downtempo album was originally designed as a drone music release.

M.Nomized and William Spivey - S.I. 03 (10:34) "When a massive star reaches the end of its nuclear life, it explodes as a supernova. The remaining core collapses on itself because there are more nuclear reactions to counteract gravity. Generally, the implosion of the core stops when the protons and electrons are combined with it are only neutron. One then finds a neutron star where gravity is supported by the nuclear force that prevents neutrons from interpenetration. In some particular cases where the residual nucleus is massive enough, the nuclear force is not strong enough to counteract gravity. At this time, there is no strength to stop the collapse of the object itself. It shrinks until the escape velocity at the surface becomes equal to the speed of light (the escape velocity is the velocity that should be given to a body of a gravity so that it leaves another body). When the escape velocity at the surface of the core is equal to the speed of light, nothing can leave the object because it is not possible to exceed the speed of light. In fact, even light can not leave. This is why the name, "black hole". It should be understood, however, that a black hole is not an infinite gravity: for example, if a star becomes a black hole, it does not attract more other bodies that were already in the vicinity. Only the black hole is much smaller than the original star, it is possible to get closer. If one gets too close and we enter inside the "event horizon" (where the escape velocity equals the speed of light), it can never emerge." released 20 May 2013 Music composed and played by M.Nomized and William Spivey.

Shane Morris and Scott Lawlor - The Path to the Gods (43:19) Aural Films is pleased to be releasing a wonderful new collaboration project by Shane Morris and Scott Lawlor. The meeting of ambient artists has produced a powerful composition that reveals the path to the Gods. Journey on a river of drones guided by mystic percussion, exotic sounds and echoing caverns of the neither world in this long-form piece. released 23 September 2013 Two stay-at-home dads slowly carved out this album over the summer of 2013.  Shane received an initial recording from Scott that was stretched sounds of a train and his daughter. Shane took these sounds and chopped them into dozens of smaller sounds and arranged the foundation and dynamics of the piece based on Scott's sounds. From there, Shane slowly added a mix of synthesizer sounds as they spoke to me over a few months. Generally, but not exclusively, the longer tones and sounds you hear on Path to the Gods are from Scott and the shorter staccato sounds throughout the piece are often from Shane.

Journey into the realms of the North American Mississippian peoples that inhabited and built a sprawling metropolis called "Cahokia." One of the first urban landscape in the world that was home to 10,000s of people located in the Mid-Western United States near what is presently the city of St. Louis. Cahokia is an enigma of sorts, as the true origin of the people and name of this city are unknown. These works are a series of meditations on the mystery and wonder of this fantastic place of pyramids and a sophisticated culture that predates western history. Read more about Cahokia at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cahokia Thomas Jackson Park (Mystified) had this to say about the album: "It is always a thrill to find music that actually engages my imagination. It has to have a sense of mystery, and also to be solid enough musically. "Cahokia" by Jack Hertz easily accomplishes both. Each piece explores a different facet of a sort of dream-analysis of an ancient civilization. As this civilization is mostly unknown to us, it may be through dreams that we can best explore it. The tracks do a great job of connoting early American landscapes, rendering a Mid-Western version of Australia's legendary "Dreamtime". Hertz's "Cahokia" showcases a mature talent, effectively capturing primal, ethereal spirits. Definitely recommended. Thanks for the great music!" released 11 November 2013 All tracks composed, recorded and mixed by Jack Hertz between August and October 2013 at Milagra Ridge.

Matthew chapter 12 verses43 through 45: 43 - "When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, but he finds none. 44 - Then he says, 'I will return to my house from which I came.' And when he comes he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. 45 - Then he goes and brings with him seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first.

Tim Kays - The ATLAS Experiment (18:46) In a world where 'bigger is better', the imaginations of millions were recently transfixed on the search for something incredibly small...the Higgs Boson. To most people, subatomic particles like quarks, leptons, bosons, hadrons and gluons are just that...subatomic particles that are easily out of sight and out of mind. The Higgs Boson, named after Nobel Laureate Peter Higgs, was long suspected to be a subatomic particle that does something that no others could...provide mass. Often referred to as the 'God Particle', the search for the Higgs Boson required the need for a supercollider like the 27-km circumference Large Hadron Collider (LHC) near Geneva, Switzerland that could accelerate subatomic conglomerate particles called hadrons at each other at near-light speed, smashing them together, then studying the subatomic particular remains in the shatter pattern. Imagine engineers crash testing cars at a subatomic level, and there you have it. This album attempts to capture the essence of the search for the elusive Higgs Boson, from the earliest theorizations in 1964 to the announcement of the discovery of the Higgs Boson on 4 July, 2012 as a part of the ATLAS (Argonne Tandem Linear Accelerator System) experiment that was constructed inside the LHC specifically for the God Particle quest. Now you understand the joke where the Higgs Boson walks into the cathedral, only to be met by the friar. "We don't allow your type in here," said the friar, to which the Higgs Boson replied, "You must, for without my presence, you cannot have mass." Kick back and enjoy the light speed ride on the hadrons. You may find the resulting head-on collision a little on the unnerving side, but the resulting light show is like none other on earth. released 16 March 2014 Tim Kays - Composition and Recording More Info: soundcloud.com/neveah-neves Aural Films Catalog No. AF0031 ----------------------- foobar2000 1.3.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Aural Films is thrilled to bring you a new release titled "The Madness that Lurks Within" by Scott Lawlor & Rebekkah Hilgraves. This dark ambient concept album inspired by a documentary on the Russian Sleep Experiment story. Joins the sonic forces of Scott's dronescapes with the engaging voice of Rebekkah Hilgraves to take us on a darkly exotic journey into extreme horror. Scott describes how the album came about: This dark ambient concept album was inspired by something that my son showed me on youtube called the Russian sleep experiment. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEwbfnCpKA4 After hearing this narration of the story, I got inspired to write a track based on the events described and wanted to make something much darker and creepier than the original narration that I first heard. I went on a search for sounds that I felt would fit the project nicely, ran a lot of them through delays as well as other effects to provide the desired audio experience for the listener and I had more fun putting together this concept album more than any others that I've done. I asked Rebekkah Hilgraves to read the piece for my interpretation and her narration is outstanding so I'd like to thank her for a job well done. released 18 April 2014 Scott Lawlor - Compositon, recording & production.

Another Neglected Hobby - Fade Out (2:57) # - 24Bit Aural Films is proud to present "Fortune Chronicles" by Another Neglected Hobby. This release is based on a real mystery. When the artist found a letter from a film studio and what looked like some pages from a novel buried far out in the desert. He was inspired to create this music and bring the manuscript back to life. NOTE: You will need to download the album to get the PDF with the original letter and manuscript for reading. Read the notes on this release from Another Neglected Hobby below: The idea to produce this soundtrack began with an arrowhead-hunting trip my wife and I took through the desert landscape of West Texas. We were riding dirt bikes down a dusty oilfield lease road when we spotted an abandoned Airstream trailer parked out in the middle of nowhere. The door was standing open and we could see that the entire interior had been stripped clean. We walked a few feet into the sand dunes surrounding the trailer, scouting for arrowheads or other artifacts, and came across something wrapped in plastic sticking out of the sand. It was a rectangular bundle about as thick as a magazine and appeared to have been buried intentionally. The persistent windstorms that sweep through the area on a regular basis had uncovered a corner of the plastic. I pulled it out of the sand and tore through several layers of plastic to find a letter from a film studio and what looked like some pages from a novel. Although the novel was missing the second half and a section from the middle, reading it planted a seed in my mind. For weeks afterwards, I kept wondering about what had happened to whoever lived in the old Airstream, and whether it might have been the author of the manuscript. I also wondered about the story contained in the pages of the novel and why the film studio considered it “too hot” to produce on film. When I learned about Aural Films and their production of soundtracks for films that do not exist, I knew I had to create a soundtrack for The Fortune Chronicles. Although we don’t know what happened to the author of the manuscript, the evidence suggests that some powerful force wanted to stop his story from getting out. I feel like fate led me to find what remains of the story and I now have an obligation to bring it out into the open. In addition to the music, you may also download and read the letter and manuscript pages that we found out in the desert. released 21 April 2014 All composition, recording and mastering by Another Neglected Hobby.

Download this release of modern electroacoustic recordings now to hear their sonic works filled with exotic soundscapes. released 28 April 2014 Zreen Toyz and Arcane Waves are projects by the French artist JLHB (born in 1954). He started with classical training on piano and percussions, but the stifling conformity of the academy pushes him toward the world of improvised music. Along the way he encounters composers such as Luc Ferrari and Ilhan Mimaroglu, but he considers the improvised Electronic Music and the Free Jazz of the early 70s as the foundation of his sonorous experiments. Since his first pieces created in 1970, he works the sound material following inspiration of the moment, a raw and instinctive approach by stratification where any imperfection or sound incident become a harshness on which to hang on atmospheres or reflections. In this way, he creates impalpable and timeless landscapes where vibrations, noises, and collages tend to blurring the structure of the piece. His music is used for artistic exhibitions, contemporary choreographies, documentary movies and as ambient backgrounds for video games.

Outside Other describes the album as follows: This is my original soundtrack a hypothetical documentary tracing the development of 2001: A Space Odyssey, from its inception at the hands of Arthur C Clarke and Stanley Kubrick through to the novel and film we (probably) all love today. In my mind's eye, the album traces the development of 2001 via 'The Lost Worlds of 2001' through the book and film (with emphasis on the former two). The music itself results from my manipulation of found sounds pertinent to the subject matter at hand. released 16 June 2014 Outside Other - All sounds and production.

A true sonic alchemist who can seemingly create music events out of almost anything, Dimuzio's listed sound sources on his various releases include everything from 'modified 10 speed bicycle' and 'resonating water pipe' to short-wave radios, loops, feedback, samplers, synthesizers and even normal instruments such as guitar, clarinet and trumpet. Dimuzio's eclecticism bespeaks a career equally informed by a profound dedication to his craft and collaborations with friends, artists and technologists alike.

Tim Kays - Of Rime and Reason (23:23) Aural Films welcomes the return of artist Tim Kays? with a new album titled "Of Rime and Reason." A long-form work inspired by something that is near and dear to us at Aural Films, the weather. In this release, Tim draws on his meteorological expertise to conjure evocative sounds-capes based on the concept know as "Rime." Rime is an ice formation, similar to hoarfrost as it is a result of a wintertime fog in this neck o’ the woods. During the overnight hours, a fog slowly descends as the temperatures slowly fall. Usually between 3 and 5 a.m., the surface temperatures will drop to 32 degrees on exposed, non-insulated surfaces. When that atmospheric quantity is attained, the microscopic droplets of water vapor of the fog slowly pass over these surfaces, leaving behind equally microscopic ice crystals. These ice formations slowly accumulate until after sunrise, when the surface temperatures again climb over the freezing mark and the fog ascends. When that happens, ice accumulation ceases, and once the sun warms the air enough, the ice formations shatter and slowly fall earthward, resembling snow in their descent. ‘Of Rime and Reason’ documents the slow fall of the temperatures as the fog builds, with the crescendo ? of the way through representing the moment when the surface temperature attains the all-important 32 degree mark…and the magic of rime formation then commences. The cover photograph is a ‘treated’ view of rime as it began to form on an evergreen tree in my front yard. Each ‘crystal’ is made up of hundreds of water vapor droplets, and totals around 1/8 to 3/16” in length. You can tell which way the fog was drifting over the foliage by the direction of the ice accumulations. released 30 August 2014 Tim Kays - Composition and Recording Aural Films Catalog No. AF0060 ----------------------- foobar2000 1.3.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Join us on Monday September 29th for the release of his album "Occupation Lightworker." A collection of compositions that take us on a sonic journey through the farm country of Northwest Ohio where Tim has recorded his very own naturescapes that provide the foundation for the music on this album. Tim describes the album and tracks as follows: Welcome to the farm! Although many do not associate Ohio with farm country, Northwest Ohio is primarily agrarian. It was on my farm that the naturescapes were recorded that provide the foundation for the music on this album. "The Sun Also Rises" During the summer months, the birds announce the dawn about an hour before the eastern skies begin to lighten...sometimes annoyingly so. The crescendo builds with the light until this...recorded just as the sun made its first appearance in the eastern horizon. "Morning News From the Avian Planet" The back yard is separated from the northern fields by a dense wooded ravine with a small stream running through it. The white-tailed deer call the ravine home year-round, but on this warm, cloudless day, the avian denizens of the ravine ruled the airwaves with their mid-morning chatter. "Under the July Moon" The only things more gabby than the birds of the ravine during the daylight hours are the three-toed tree toads at night. Many an evening has been spent in a lounge chair near the ravine, listening to the toad choir, watching the fireflies high in the trees, the deer walking along the stream below, and shooing away the unofficial state bird of Ohio...the mosquitoes. "Bowing Line Segment - 0145 (Children of Wakinyan II)" Dedicated to my Sister of the Southwind, Magnetic Wind On the evening of June 30 - July 1 of this year, an approaching cold front produced a line of severe thunderstorms that swept through Iowa, before marching through Illinois and Indiana, arriving here in Ohio well after midnight. As a spotter and tracker for the National Weather Service, I awaited the arrival of the line which was bowing out as it approached. I set up the recorder before I took off to look into the storm up close and personal. You can hear the winds accelerating through the evergreen trees and the soybean field, as well as the sound of distant thunder as the line approached at 60 miles per hour. At a couple of other points, you can hear large limbs coming down in the ravine. For those who may be wondering, yes...that is a car racing by that you hear. It is your humble host, zipping off to get into a weaker part of the line where I could watch the stronger segments. As I was going off to meet the beast, I was completely unaware that it had just uprooted an eight-foot diameter tree and dropped it on a house a few miles to the west in Indiana, about fifteen minutes prior. Sadly, the occupant of the house had no chance. From approach, to onset, to its passage to the east, this is the sound of an Ohio severe thunderstorm...a bowing line segment, at time code zero-145. Wakinyan, the great Thunder Being of the Great Plains, returned with a vengeance to Northwest Ohio. Peace be yours...

Cover by Wolfgang Gsell White Origins's story began at 12 or 13, on a video game console, throwing together sounds made by someone else and saving it to a memory card. The precursor was the influence of Rikki's father and his collection of classic dance records. An early memory recalls sitting in the back of the car with his parents, going... somewhere, and mentally picking apart the elements of the track playing on the car stereo - Rejuvination's 'Requiem'. Captured by the pulsating beat and lack of vocals, when all he had known was the Spice Girls or his mother's love of Celine Dion, Rikki took analyzing music forward to replicating and constructing his own. Well, constructing his own combinations of those sounds made by someone else, which eventually felt limiting and fuelled a desire for more control over his own sound. Long story short - omitting tales of poor secondary education, unfulfilling college education, and by far a more satisfying and invigorating self-taught approach - Rikki is now White Origins, The Lime Room, one half of new project Ministerialis with vocalist Karen VR, and founder of Headform Records.

Simon Slator - Just Fishing (5:43) 02. Simon Slator - Overboard (18:30) 03. Simon Slator - Atlantis (16:53) Aural FIlms presents a brand new release "Overboard," by Simon Slator. Following his Aural Films release, "Forward." The Tamworth, UK artist returns with a new sonic journey about a fisherman who is pulled overboard, and dragged down to the bottom of the ocean where he is greeted by the fabled lost city of Atlantis. Ever since he was young, he always enjoyed his solitude. As an adult, there was nothing he liked better than to jump in his boat, sail far away from the coast and just drift there in complete peace and quiet. It was also the perfect excuse to do a spot of fishing. It was very rare he got a bite at all, but this bite can’t have come from some mere fish; his reel was spinning like crazy. Whatever it was at the end of his line, it was travelling with some speed. In a split-second reaction, he sprang from his chair and dove towards his fishing rod, narrowly managing to get both hands on the pole just as the line went taut and the reel sprang to a halt. Still in mid-dive, he was dragged over the stern and into the water below. This felt very strange. Not only could he see through the water with crystal-clarity, but he could breathe! Falling to the ocean floor, he began to survey his surroundings: an array of sunken ships creaked and groaned all around him. These mighty vessels now mere playthings for marine life. In the distance, he could make out a light shining in amongst the gloom. Warily, he moved towards it. As the light drew closer, he could see the outline of a huge walled cityscape, with a palatial keep presiding high above it. The city was glow-ing, like it was refracting light through its glassy walls. As he approached the outskirts, an undercurrent grabbed him and launched him through the archway at the city’s entrance. Returning to his feet, he could see that the city was deserted. There was nobody about, yet the city still looked well-maintained; it certainly didn’t look like it had been abandoned. Walking up the main street that ran through the heart of the city, he reached the heavy, wooden doors of the palace. With his heart pounding with trepidation, he pushed one of the doors open and stepped inside. In the large courtyard, several thousand people were gathered there in rows - all silent and looking straight at him. One man, wearing what looked like imperial robes, stood alone in front of them. The Emperor walked up to him, placed his hand on his shoulder, smiled and said… “Welcome home”. released 27 October 2014 Composed and Produced by SIMON SLATOR Recorded August-October 2014 Cover photo CC0 (Public Domain) www.simonslator.co.uk Aural Films Catalog No. AF0072 ----------------------- foobar2000 1.3.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Read the following notes by Scott Lawlor who conceptualized this project: I have always been fond of Dante's Inferno, having read it back around 1987 in a world Literature class and it wasn't recently until I thought how interesting it would be to render an ambient interpretation of this classic masterpiece. Whereas with other compositions I've written that were inspired by different writings, I had utilized sound effects from freesound.org to assist in the interpretation of the work, I decided not to do that at all with this album. I wanted the imagination of the listener to lead the interpretation to a larger degree and felt that adding such effects would paint a sonic picture where there really wasn't much room for interpretation. I did research on the poem as well as read through parts again and came up with song titles reflecting the mortal sin of each circle as well as putting a central character from each of those circles to give the tracks a bit of a narrative quality. Besides using my Ensoniq ts-12, I asked Jack Hertz to collaborate and add his unique ambient voice to the project and his contributions are simply outstanding. He brought out sonic possibilities that take the tracks to a whole new plateau. The resulting effort will surely scare the hell out of you and lead you on a journey through Dante's inferno from the Vestibule where Virgil and Dante first embark on their journey to the chilling encounter with Lucifer himself who is eternally bound in the ice of the ninth circle. Thank you for having the courage to listen. released 31 October 2014 Scott Lawlor - Conceptualization, composition, synthesizers, and sound effects.

A compilation project to document a unique method of music composition called, Noodles. Instead of writing a composition, artists create systems that generate the music. What Are Noodles? The project *loosely* follows the definitional in James Clark's book "Advanced Programming Techniques for Modular Synthesizers": "Noodles refer to self-running patches that have some (hopefully interesting) temporal variation in the sound. Some noodles are melodic, some are extended "drones", where the variation is timbral in nature, and some are just plain weird." Read the full chapter from his book for more information on Noodles and how to develop your own at www.cim.mcgill.ca/~clark/nordmodularbook/nm_algorithmic.html#noodles How to Participate The project is open anyone who's made their own noodle and wants to share it. We want to hear your ideas on the many ways this concept can be done. No limits on style, gear, process, complexity, or approach. They can be autonomous, live, interactive or generative. The only requirement is you have fun making your own noodles. released 26 November 2014 All rights revert to the artists.

Though her love for music started in childhood, she went on to graduate in Business and International Law at the University of Paris. She came to England and studied music to obtain a diploma in Performance and Opera Studies from Birkbeck University. She studied acting at the Method Acting School, under the direction of Andy Lucas. Annemarie’s career has taken her through Europe and across North America over the past 12 years. Her passion for French Music and Poetry led her to combine interpretation and musicality in songs regardless of the time in which they were written. She invites her listener into her own intimate world and understanding of “Chanson”. She speaks fluent French, English, and Swedish and sings in seven languages. In Paris, she was a prizewinner in the Concours General de Musique et d’Art Dramatique for her interpretation of Gabriel Faure as a Soprano Falcon. She has appeared in London at various venues including the Jermyn Street Theatre and Pizza on the Park, The Cochrane Theatre, St John’s Smith Square…and InSpiral lounge in Camden. She scripts, and performs her own one-woman shows. Some of her shows: “Parlez-moi d’Amour”, “A la recherche du temps perdu”, “Americans in Paris”, “Foreign Affairs” “Secrets” “Impressions” and she now performs live under the show title “Still Motion” Her interpretation of Faure songs led to her recording the theme music of the movie “Devil’s gate” which was released in the United States. She presented a program celebrating the centenary of “Entente Cordiale” which was performed in Paris and subsequently in London. Her retrospective of the life of the French singer Yvonne Printemps was shown at various Festivals in the South of France. She has worked with wonderful musicians like Kenny Clayton and recently Nicolas Meier, Dave Suttle, Gabriel Keen as well as Antonio Testa and Nova. As of today her music has been described as: Eclectic and experimental, electronic with some classical colouring with at times engaged and emotional vocals. She works with a strong affiliation with environmental and educational issues.

We can look far back into time to see what is believed to be galaxies that existed when the Universe was just 750 million years old. These seven pieces are inspired by the vision of these young galaxies reaching across time and space to peer at the cosmic dawn. About Redshift In physics, redshift happens when light or other electromagnetic radiation from an object is increased in wavelength, or shifted to the red end of the spectrum. In general, whether or not the radiation is within the visible spectrum, "redder" means an increase in wavelength – equivalent to a lower frequency and a lower photon energy, in accordance with, respectively, the wave and quantum theories of light. Read more at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redshift About Hubble Ultra Deep Field The Hubble Ultra Deep Field 2012, an improved version of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field image featuring additional observation time. The new data have revealed for the first time a population of distant galaxies at redshifts between 9 and 12, including the most distant object observed to date. These galaxies are shown at the top of the picture, and their locations are pinpointed in the main image. These galaxies will require confirmation using spectroscopy by the forthcoming NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope before they are considered to be fully confirmed.

He has been composing and recording experimental music for more than 30 years. Generally, he is searching for a sonic middle ground between the real and the artificial. Utilizing computers, synthesizers, found objects, field recordings and digital effects. He designs his own instruments and effects with unique characteristics that create spaces and atmospheres a listener can explore. He finds all aspects of creating sound fascinating. From the early percussion instruments to the present day hardware and software innovations. He is particularly interested in sound synthesis of all kinds, especially Frequency Modulation.

Scott Lawlor & Rebekkah Hilgraves - Recollecting the Snow (1:04:42) Aural Films is proud to present "Recollecting the Snow" by Scott Lawlor, featuring Rebekkah Hilgraves. Read Scott Lawlor's description of the concept album he's created for this release: After reading an article by Peter Stark called "As Freezing Persons Recollect the Snow-First Chill-Then Stupor-Then the Letting Go: The cold hard facts of freezing to death" (www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-adventure/As-Freezing-Persons-Recollect-the-Snow--First-Chill--Then-Stupor--Then-the-Letting-Go.html), I thought this would make a great concept for an ambient piece. I contacted Peter and told him of my interest to create a concept based on his work and he gave me the go-ahead to get a reading of the article. released 05 January 2015 I'd also like to give special thanks to Rebekkah Hilgraves who provided a great narration of the article by Peter and for suggesting the title of the track. Voice/narration recorded at RadHaus US (radhaus.us) While she was playing this on her "At Water's Edge" program last year, long before it was released, a listener commented that hearing this was making him feel so cold that he'd have to wait until the summer to finish hearing it. This story gives a whole new meaning to the word "chilling". Be sure to get a blanket out while listening to this narrative; you'll need the insulation. It was a lot of fun putting this project together and I hope you enjoy the sonic journey presented here.

Light and dark, wet and dry, this invasive event is a great source of inspiration for sound artists from around the world. This project seeks to publish 24 hours of these recordings as an on-going series for all to hear and enjoy. released 12 January 2015 Tim Kays - Composition, Recording. Carbon111 - Cover photo. Playing in a high school garage band and working part-time at the local radio station as a Midwestern teenager in the 1970s, Tim cut his teeth on the riffs of Tony Iommi, Robin Trower and Jimmy Page. One evening at the radio station, he fumbled through a box of newly arrived promotional albums that were deemed unworthy of airplay by the program manager. One of those albums caught his eye, so he pulled it out and played it in the studio. Five minutes into that album, 'Stratosfear' by Tangerine Dream, Tim discovered that his views of music to that point were, at best, myopic. Through the garage band days, up through the ranks of semi-pro and professional musician, he tinkered with Moog and Arp synthesizers, but always just as a fill or lead instrument behind the guitars. In 1998, he began using Roland guitar synthesizers to expand his sound, and a decade later, he began recording using the Rolands, along with a Moog and Yamaha to take his first awkward foray into the genre that had stunned him over two decades earlier…electronic music. A musician writes from the emotion of experience, and after a decade-long relationship crashed and burned in 2009, Tim had plenty of inspiration from which to draw. Putting the guitar down and relying almost entirely on synthesizers and sampled sounds, he found a new voice. In his newfound 'self-medication' for an aching heart, Tim began to draw upon the old influences of Tangerine Dream, Jean Michel Jarre, Michael Hoenig, Vangelis, Michel Huygen, Hans Joachim Rodelius and Brian Eno…and the compositions began to flow. Discovering a Facebook community of like-minded musicians, Tim discovered new, but equally profound influences. Musicians like Gert Emmens, Jack Hertz, Mike Carss (Altus), Daniel Robert Lahey, Cousin Silas, Wendy Waters (Magnetic Wind), Phillip Wilkerson, Bing Satellites and many others occupied huge chunks of his computer hard drive. With the addition of their influences, the compositions became albums…and more and more albums. Being solely the product of self-medication, Tim determined that the albums were to remain private. After giving a listen to a special friend, she convinced him that more needed to hear his music. Easier said than done, though. Who? How? The answer came after the Sandy Hook tragedy, when Magnetic Wind decided to release a compilation benefit album on Jack Hertz' Sounds 4 Good label. Tim submitted an old track, entitled "Footdancin'". When it was included on the 2013 benefit release entitled, "For Our Children," Tim was now a published solo electronic music artist. Since that time, he has had releases on the BFW, HAZE and Petroglyph labels, as well as Jack Hertz' Aural Films label. His music has been played on several stations, such as StillStream and Radio Sunrise. Still though, although he has over 30 albums of material recorded, most have never been heard outside of a few close friends. As Orson Welles once said of Paul Masson, "We will sell no wine, before it's time." The same can be said of the music of Tim Kays.

Jean-Luc H. BERTHELOT (born in 1954) started with classical training on piano and percussions, but the stifling conformity of the academy pushes him toward the world of improvised music. Along the way he encounters composers such as Luc Ferrari and Ilhan Mimaroglu, but he considers the experimental sides of the improvised musics of the early 70s (Rock, Jazz, and Electronic) as the foundation of his sonorous experiments. Since his first pieces created in 1970, he works the sound material following inspiration of the moment, a raw and instinctive approach by stratification where any imperfection or sound incident become a harshness on which to hang on atmospheres or reflections. In this way, he creates impalpable and timeless landscapes where vibrations, noises, and collages tend to blurring the structure of the piece. His music is used for artistic exhibitions, contemporary choreographies, documentary movies and as ambient backgrounds for video games. Main projects : Zreen Toyz, Arcane Waves, Elemental Noise. Wolfgang Gsell, born 1956 in Stuttgart, began to play guitar with 15 years. In the late 80s he changed to play synthesizers.

He spent the years 1981-93 working with the Serge Modular Music System before enrolling in Mills College Contemporary Music Program. Those years were largely taken up with a quest to develop and integrate a personally developed extended trumpet language into a post-Stockhausen electronic sound environment, while also pursuing advanced improvisation studies with Pauline Oliveros and Jack Wright. While at Mills, Djll concentrated on microtonal music, split-tone trumpet technique, and computer music.

It brings to mind images of congested highways, billowing smokestacks, landscapes designed to capture and embrace that which we call SMOG. From within the haze, one may not sense its presence.

SMOG was released in 2011 by 3bc & Ars Sonor as a 4 minute dark ambient piece.

This project seeks to publish 24 hours of these recordings as an on-going series for all to hear and enjoy. Read Joe's notes on the composition: When Jack mentioned this project, I immediately thought of a piece composed from foghorns, so this is a musique concrete piece, made up entirely of foghorn. bell, and onboard ship and boat samples. Everything was assembled in Garageband. It has its genesis in a day I went out to the San Francisco Wave Organ to do a field recording. It was a very foggy day, and the various ships and boats were blowing their foghorns along with the Golden Gate horns. The water lapped against the jetty and into the wave organ's pipes, and buoy bells came across the water as if they were only a few feet away. This is my impression of that day. released 16 March 2015 Joe McMahon - Composition and Production. Jack Hertz - Cover Photo. I mined freesound.org for as many useful examples as I could find. I decided that I wanted to go more textural than I could with just sample collage, so I Paulstretched the St. Lawrence River and San Francisco samples to a full hour, then worked a collage of the other sample atop this, processing them to achieve a drone context. I picked up the sailboat interior sample because it looked intriguing, and after listening, decided it would work as a foreground textural counterpoint to the more distant and inchoate drones, bells, and horns. The final result lies somewhere between a drone piece and a field recording - an imaginary seascape bringing California, New Brunswick, Quebec, Norway, Germany, Slovakia, Turkey, and France together in one auditory place.

This release contrasts the darkness of "Nine Circles" with a lighter, more up-lifting album focused on purgatory and the Earthly paradise. Project composer, Scott Lawlor describes this release: Upon the completion and release of Nine Circles in 2014, I sent Jack my organ drones to which I added some processed Gregorian chants from www.worldofdante.org/comedy/dante/music as well as synth choirs for him to add elements to for the next release in the trilogy. Whereas Nine Circles took a more direct approach to interpreting the music, though not necessarily a literal one, in this release, the goal is a more ethereal approach to the Seven Terraces, making the interpretation of the seven deadly sins from their opposite virtues the focal point of the album. Jack has done remarkable work on this release, adding depth and beauty to my atmospheres and creating an audio experience that I hope you'll enjoy.

Who returns with another fascinating excursion into the mysterious world of weather "Phenomena." Hear a collection of music inspired by the measurement, observation, analysis, and study of event in the invisible ocean we know as.. the atmosphere. released 27 April 2015 Tim Kays - All tracks written, preformed, and produced. Moog, Roland, Korg and Arturia Synthesizers. Gibson, Fender, and Stienberger Guitars. Playing in a high school garage band and working part-time at the local radio station as a Midwestern teenager in the 1970s, Tim cut his teeth on the riffs of Tony Iommi, Robin Trower and Jimmy Page. One evening at the radio station, he fumbled through a box of newly arrived promotional albums that were deemed unworthy of airplay by the program manager. One of those albums caught his eye, so he pulled it out and played it in the studio. Five minutes into that album, 'Stratosfear' by Tangerine Dream, Tim discovered that his views of music to that point were, at best, myopic. Through the garage band days, up through the ranks of semi-pro and professional musician, he tinkered with Moog and Arp synthesizers, but always just as a fill or lead instrument behind the guitars. In 1998, he began using Roland guitar synthesizers to expand his sound, and a decade later, he began recording using the Rolands, along with a Moog and Yamaha to take his first awkward foray into the genre that had stunned him over two decades earlier…electronic music. A musician writes from the emotion of experience, and after a decade-long relationship crashed and burned in 2009, Tim had plenty of inspiration from which to draw. Putting the guitar down and relying almost entirely on synthesizers and sampled sounds, he found a new voice. In his newfound 'self-medication' for an aching heart, Tim began to draw upon the old influences of Tangerine Dream, Jean Michel Jarre, Michael Hoenig, Vangelis, Michel Huygen, Hans Joachim Rodelius and Brian Eno…and the compositions began to flow. Discovering a Facebook community of like-minded musicians, Tim discovered new, but equally profound influences. Musicians like Gert Emmens, Jack Hertz, Mike Carss (Altus), Daniel Robert Lahey, Cousin Silas, Wendy Waters (Magnetic Wind), Phillip Wilkerson, Bing Satellites and many others occupied huge chunks of his computer hard drive. With the addition of their influences, the compositions became albums…and more and more albums. Being solely the product of self-medication, Tim determined that the albums were to remain private. After giving a listen to a special friend, she convinced him that more needed to hear his music. Easier said than done, though. Who? How? The answer came after the Sandy Hook tragedy, when Magnetic Wind decided to release a compilation benefit album on Jack Hertz' Sounds 4 Good label. Tim submitted an old track, entitled "Footdancin'". When it was included on the 2013 benefit release entitled, "For Our Children," Tim was now a published solo electronic music artist. Since that time, he has had releases on the BFW, HAZE and Petroglyph labels, as well as Jack Hertz' Aural Films label. His music has been played on several stations, such as StillStream and Radio Sunrise. Still though, although he has over 30 albums of material recorded, most have never been heard outside of a few close friends. As Orson Welles once said of Paul Masson, "We will sell no wine, before it's time." The same can be said of the music of Tim Kays.

Jack Hertz - Nataraj (8:10) # # - 24Bit Jack Hertz presents his 100th album release with an album of Fourth World styled compositions dedicated to the the Hindu deity, Nataraja. An ancient symbol that represents the rhythm and harmony of life. Drawing on 3 decades of work with original electronic music. "Nataraja" presents a suite of ten sonic spaces that invite the listener to reflect on the exotic, sonic and spiritual. About Nataraja Nataraja, The Lord (or King, of Dance), is a depiction of the Hindu God Shiva as the cosmic dancer who performs his divine dance to destroy a weary universe and make preparations for the god Brahma to start the process of creation as described in his actions: - A cobra uncoils from his lower right forearm, and the crescent moon and a skull are on his crest. He dances within an arch of flames. This dance is called the Dance of Bliss, Anandatandava. - The upper right hand holds a small drum shaped like an hourglass that is called a ḍamaru in Sanskrit. A specific hand gesture (mudra) called ḍamaru-hasta (Sanskrit for "ḍamaru-hand") is used to hold the drum. It symbolizes sound originating creation or the beat of the drum is the passage of time. - The upper left hand contains Agni or fire, which signifies destruction. The opposing concepts in the upper hands show the counterpoise of creation and destruction or the fire of life. - The second right hand shows the Abhaya mudra (meaning fearlessness in Sanskrit), bestowing protection from both evil and ignorance to those who follow the righteousness of dharma. - The second left hand points towards the raised foot which signifies upliftment and liberation. It also points to the left foot with the sign of the elephant which leads the way through the jungle of ignorance. - The dwarf on which Nataraja dances is the demon Apasmara (Muyalaka, as known in Tamil), which symbolises Shiva's victory over ignorance. It also represents the passage of spirit from the divine into material. - As the Lord of Dance, Nataraja, Shiva performs the tandava, the dance in which the universe is created, maintained, and dissolved. Shiva's long, matted tresses, usually piled up in a knot, loosen during the dance and crash into the heavenly bodies, knocking them off course or destroying them utterly. - The surrounding flames represent the manifest Universe. - The snake swirling around his waist is kundalini, the Shakti or divine force thought to reside within everything. This also parallels the cords of life worn by the Brahmins to represent the second rebirth. - The stoic face of Shiva represents his neutrality, thus being in balance.

Lovers of old and vintage media will enjoy this new album that takes its queue from the haunting effects found in historic music formats due to the flaws in the technology of their time. Tapping into a new domain where the spirits of noise and distortion live on forever, Their Teeth to Points describes the project as follows: For some time I have been obsessed with vintage music recordings from the late 1800s and early 1900s. I love the hiss and crackle of old vinyl, but also the idea of what these recordings represent: a moment captured in time, something very nearly forgotten. I am always struck by the contrast between the scarcity of these vintage recordings and the ubiquity with which we now document the minutia of our lives in a digital age. For this album I wanted to explore these vintage audio recordings through a modern lens, using computer-based algorithmic composition methods and an ambient music sensibility. All the sounds on this album are built from samples of public domain recordings from the late 1800s and early 1900s. All compositional choices -- which samples to play and at what time -- were made by the computer, using a program I developed based on Markov chains. The result is a 30 min ambient soundscape that is composed entirely based on a statistical computer algorithm, blending the sensibility of a modern digital age with the sounds of vintage audio. The title of this piece -- Memoryless -- is both the mathematical term used to characterize the Markov chains algorithm that defines the composition, and also a reference to the nearly forgotten audio clips that comprise the recording." released 29 June 2015 Their Teeth to Points - Recording, production, mastering. Their Teeth to Points is a solo project, based out of Hamilton, Ontario. After a misspent musical youth playing various instruments in various noisy punk bands my interests have turned to experimental music / sound art and Their Teeth to Points has been my primary musical outlet for the past year. My work incorporates field recordings, both digital and analogue synths, and a variety of sound manipulation software that I’ve developed over the last few years. ----------------------- foobar2000 1.3.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Sometimes less is more, making his music ideal for listening while working, sleeping or doing other things. The music of Mystified especially explores texture, consistency, and a type of variety that could be called subtle. This is not the utopian ambient of the typical soundscape artist. It is serious music for serious people. More on his work is available at MystifiedMusic.com About Jack Hertz Jack Hertz has been composing and recording for more than 30 years.

Tim Kays - Adrift Amongst the Stars (14:40) 24Bit Aural Films is happy to announce the new release "Ancient Observatories" from Tim Kays. The artist who is always looking up, be it god, weather or the Universe. Tim creates music that takes us to the furthest reaches of the human spirit where awe and wonderment are in full bloom. His newest release features a suite of four compositions dedicated to the Stargazer in all of us. released October 5, 2015 Written, Produced, Engineered and Performed by Tim Kays Recorded at The Studio in the Clouds Bryan, Ohio in 2013 Remixed July - September 2015 Tim Kays uses Roland, Moog, Korg and Arturia Synthesizers; Gibson, Fender and Steinberger Guitars, with Fender and Line 6 Amplification Thank you D. J. Stevenson for resurrecting The Studio in the Clouds Playing in a high school garage band and working part-time at the local radio station as a Midwestern teenager in the 1970s, Tim cut his teeth on the riffs of Tony Iommi, Robin Trower and Jimmy Page. One evening at the radio station, he fumbled through a box of newly arrived promotional albums that were deemed unworthy of airplay by the program manager. One of those albums caught his eye, so he pulled it out and played it in the studio. Five minutes into that album, 'Stratosfear' by Tangerine Dream, Tim discovered that his views of music to that point were, at best, myopic. Through the garage band days, up through the ranks of semi-pro and professional musician, he tinkered with Moog and Arp synthesizers, but always just as a fill or lead instrument behind the guitars. In 1998, he began using Roland guitar synthesizers to expand his sound, and a decade later, he began recording using the Rolands, along with a Moog and Yamaha to take his first awkward foray into the genre that had stunned him over two decades earlier…electronic music. A musician writes from the emotion of experience, and after a decade-long relationship crashed and burned in 2009, Tim had plenty of inspiration from which to draw. Putting the guitar down and relying almost entirely on synthesizers and sampled sounds, he found a new voice. In his newfound 'self-medication' for an aching heart, Tim began to draw upon the old influences of Tangerine Dream, Jean Michel Jarre, Michael Hoenig, Vangelis, Michel Huygen, Hans Joachim Rodelius and Brian Eno…and the compositions began to flow. Discovering a Facebook community of like-minded musicians, Tim discovered new, but equally profound influences. Musicians like Gert Emmens, Jack Hertz, Mike Carss (Altus), Daniel Robert Lahey, Cousin Silas, Wendy Waters (Magnetic Wind), Phillip Wilkerson, Bing Satellites and many others occupied huge chunks of his computer hard drive. With the addition of their influences, the compositions became albums…and more and more albums. Being solely the product of self-medication, Tim determined that the albums were to remain private. After giving a listen to a special friend, she convinced him that more needed to hear his music. Easier said than done, though. Who? How? The answer came after the Sandy Hook tragedy, when Magnetic Wind decided to release a compilation benefit album on Jack Hertz' Sounds 4 Good label. Tim submitted an old track, entitled "Footdancin'". When it was included on the 2013 benefit release entitled, "For Our Children," Tim was now a published solo electronic music artist. Since that time, he has had releases on the BFW, HAZE and Petroglyph labels, as well as Jack Hertz' Aural Films label. His music has been played on several stations, such as StillStream and Radio Sunrise. Still though, although he has over 30 albums of material recorded, most have never been heard outside of a few close friends. As Orson Welles once said of Paul Masson, "We will sell no wine, before it's time." The same can be said of the music of Tim Kays.

Beatrice guides Dante successively through the nine spheres, each of which carries a heavenly body which orbits the earth: in succession they include the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Fixed Stars. The voyage culminates in a vision of God in the Empyrean, the realm of pure light. released January 4, 2016 Scott Lawlor - Conceptualization, composition, synthesizers, and sound effects.

A total of 1,021 nuclear detonations were conducted from 1951 - 1992. This album is inspired by the wonder of the science behind the splitting of the atom, the tragic ways this knowledge has been tested and put to use and the strangely creative techniques the U.S. government and private corporations employed to sell it to the public.

Empty Zen - Climbing the Ocean (6:12) 14. Empty Zen - Daybreak (2:48) Aural Films presents "Nocturnes" the new album release by the duo of Sam Knox and Justin Guyer, that goes by the name, Empty Zen. "Nocturnes" is about the passage of time, through a single night. Collecting emotive soundscapes that transport the listener through the many phases of a day and night, dry and wet, light and dark, and so on, that fill the gap between today and tomorrow. Read the full details from the artists' on this fantastic album below: The music contained within Nocturnes is meant to be enjoyed in a certain fashion. You will wish to find a quiet space, preferably at night, and with a minimum of distractions. Laying prone will help keep you still and in fact listening to this while falling asleep is reported to be enjoyable. At any rate, we highly recommend finding or creating scenarios along these lines for maximum enjoyment. Close listening is crucial as the music develops slowly and will reward the invested listener. The theme of Nocturnes is the passage of time through a single night. Part 1 begins in the late afternoon on a midsummers day. It is warm but there is a breeze and the clouds are gathering. The birds sing as the day draws down and twilight begins. Soon it is overcast and with the gentle roll of thunder, rain begins to fall. Now the light is fading and the once colorful landscape gives way to a backdrop of shadows and shapes rendered in soft gray tones. There are houses about, and from them sounds can be heard rising and falling over the sibilant whispers of rainfall. Time passes and the world falls quiet. A lull in the weather broadens over the land as its inhabitants find their various nesting places and the early stages of sleep begin. Thoughts of the day mingle with the aspirations of tomorrow as a sense of contentment and quiet victory bestows a restful calm. The night deepens and time passes out of mind. The drizzle of rain begins again. Part 2 follows the subconscious through various stages of dreaming and ends with the awakening of dawn. It is now late at night. There is fitful dreaming, followed by periods of dreamless deep sleep. Experience mingles with imagination as body and mind drift apart. The pulsations of the cosmos bring an elemental influence to bear as well. At last shades of purple fill the predawn sky and slowly the field of stars of above fades into color. Birds begin their morning chorus and the day breaks again. released February 15, 2016 The music of Empty Zen is produced by Sam Knox & Justin Guyer. Equipment used on Nocturnes include: Abelton Live, Native Instrument's Komplete package, Roland SH-32 synthesizer, plus a variety of field recordings, sound manipulations, and found sounds. Empty Zen represents over 10 years of collaboration and exploration of what is it to compose in the 21st century. Our music can be described as soundtrack music looking for the right film. We work with mostly instrumental music inspired by genres such as ambient, electronic, industrial, and modern classical. We are based in Seattle, WA.

Where too much good art is lost in the wake of the next new thing. The Biography series re-presents artists by featuring retrospective collections that re-introduce people to those who have been working for decades. The series kicks off with none other than the ever prolific, Thomas Park. released February 29, 2016 Thomas Park has been involved with music for his entire life. He was trained in classical and jazz music as a teenager, and played the trombone and piano. His listening habits changed in the late 1980's, and Thomas became interested in electronic music. After several years of writing techno as the band AutoCad, Thomas was fortunate enough to collaborate with Robin Storey of Rapoon. This project helped Thomas to evolve into the ambient / drone band Mystified. Mystified has found considerable success, both through online and physical releases, and is known for being proficient, creative and prolific. The music of Mystified is mainly of an atmospheric nature. Sometimes for Thomas less is more, making his music ideal for listening while working, sleeping or doing other things. The music of Mystified especially explores texture, consistency, and a type of variety that could be called subtle. This is not the utopian ambient of the typical soundscape artist. It is serious music for serious people. Mystified music has found many purposes, including scores for films, online and terrestrial radio shows, festivals of aesthetic, political, and other varieties, informational cd-roms, spots on many scores of compilations, and quite a few independent releases. Mister Vapor, a newer incarnation of Thomas Park, focuses especially on the hazier, foggier sides of ambient music.

His new album, "Strange Creatures", describes ten imaginary encounters with some of the unknown beasts we hold inside ourselves. Musically speaking, the album offers a very diverse palette of musical references ranging from soundtrack-style composition to dark ambient to modern classical to electronic industrial to minimal techno to world to... released March 14, 2016 Marcel Rocha - Composition, production, mixing, keyboards. In terms of compositional process, with the exception of “They are everywhere” which was really written down on sheet music, the tracks took shape during jam sessions with various electronic toys and tools: laptop, keyboard, 'electric guitar (Birds of metal)', digital guitar, ethnic music samples, Reason, Reaper and Ableton Live. The album was made using the following DAWs (in order of importance): Reason, Ableton Live, Reaper. DIVERSE MUSIC FROM THE BEGINNING Marcel Rocha is a Brazilian composer and Doctor in Music. He works with music since the end of the 1980's, always mixing musical genres and styles. When Marcel first started to listen to music, he couldn’t care less about genres...Siouxsie and the Banshees, Cocteau Twins, Brazilian group A Cor do Som, King Crimson, Billie Holiday, David Torn, Kraftwerk, NIN, Bartok, Villa Lobos, Webern, Laurie Anderson, Kate Bush, blues... Some of his influences are: Dead Can Dance, Robert Rich, Robert Fripp, Matmos, Terje Rypdal, Brazilian folk music, Terje Rypdal, Robert Fripp, Eastern music, classical music. Through his career he has produced artistic albums under his own name, has collaborated with a lot of artists, has made soundtracks for plays, games and videos, and has joined bands of original work. Rocha is known in the field of the kind of music improvisation known as Live Looping having participated of the Y2K International Live Looping Festival in California, as well as other music festivals in the US and Brazil. He was half of ERIBÊRA - a duo with singer Uliana Dias, in which we blended Brazilian popular music with electronic and progressive rock (see ‘Music’ session). Marcel was also a member of the prolific improvisational collective Olho Caligari. Their music was spread to the world, being performed in various international festivals around the world. Whether improvising or composing, Marcel always gives much attention to the elements of spontaneity and improvisation, even when he is scoring a video or a film, or producing tracks in the studio, he trusts and rely heavily on his musical impulses. This happens when choosing instruments, timbres, scales, motifs, rhythms, etc. The spirit of the first impulses towards the creation of a piece of music are the main conductor for the unfolding of a musical work. That is why Marcel Rocha's music seems to always flows forward, almost never looking back. A continuous flow of music!

For this one, the artists have left the synthesizers behind to compose an album entirely from voicemail recordings. The result is deep, dark, and disturbing. Proceed at your own risk. "to suffering there is a limit, to being in fear there is none" (Pliny the Younger) We felt that this quotation was an accurate description of the subject matter used to creat this very dark ambient concept album about a friend of mine who has been in all manner of institutions and clinical settings from medical hospitals to insane asylums and the tales of horror therein. No hardware or software synths of any kind were utilized in creating this album. All of the tracks were created from various voicemails sent to us, granting both of us permission to manipulate them into the horror that will unfold before your ears. Headphones are highly recommended. released March 21, 2016 Original concept by Scott Lawlor. Sound design and mixing by MetaDronos and Scott Lawlor. MetaDronos - born 1981 in Poland. MD performed his first music experiments in early childhood, using reel-to-reel tape recorder and an old radio. During the next years his experiments advanced, involving more sophisticated homemade hardware, until the first use of PC to process the sound. Abandoning hardware, MD focused exclusively on a computer-based music creation and a hobby became more serious, when he began to build a collection of dedicated software, continuously experimenting with sound and music. His current sound focuses on the deep, dark and long, slowly evolving drones, seasoned with glitch and noise elements. He experiments a lot, so his music evolves all the time. Scott Lawlor is an ambient artist from Texas and is also the host of the Blind Flight on the stillstream radio network. He writes ambient in a number of subgenres including dark ambient, space, Drone and conceptual works and has releases on a number of internet labels including weareallghosts, 45echoes-sounds and Treetrunk. He enjoys collaborating with others and is always open to working with new people, trying out new ideas and experiments.

Intersonic Subformation - Diminishing Power (6:55) Aural films presents a new release "Guardians of the Transmitter" by Intersonic Subformation. This album visits dream-like World, full of ambient cinematic soundscapes, static noises and mechanical glitches. It's a World where the Nature holds on to what remains, while technology and communication deteriorates slowly as the "guardians of the transmitter" struggle to stay connected with others, attempting to broadcast their signal. Opening track sets the mood that will prevail throughout the album, while the tension and frictions between the organic and digital elements reach the pinnacle halfway through this journey. Progressively, the music sets into calmness and melon coli, leaving a listener with a dream that continues to evolve, a dream that exposes new elements with each returned listening of this album. released April 18, 2016 Intersonic Subformation - Recording and production. Intersonic Subformation music is a colorful atmospheric blend that is as equally well suited for cinematic use as for headphone indulgence. It is exploration of dreamy soundscapes that offer expensive views of cosmic vistas rewarding the listener with raw, awe-inspiring , emotions. Attention to details, lush sound design and pristine production place these compositions somewhere in the netherworld between dark and melodic ambience, with a healthy dose of pure electronic space music. If a common thread running through the work of Global Communication, Steve Roach, Aphex Twin and Tripswitch can be imagined, then this is the sonic palette which Intersonic Subformation makes its own.

But there is only one metlay!. metlay! is Dr. Mike Metlay: electronic and experimental musician, nuclear physicist, Editor of RECORDING Magazine (recordingmag.com), owner of the now-retired Atomic City label, organizer of other musicians into festivals and events of all kinds, virtual performer in Second Life (secondlife.com) under the avatar name Spiral Sands, husband, father, and good-natured lunatic. You can delve deeper into his odd philosophies, humorous asides, music (free and otherwise), demented history, and uncertain future, at mrspiral.com. Mike's preference for playing music with others over doing solo work is well-known; as a result, in contrast to dozens of group releases -- with mindSpiral, Team Metlay, Different Skies, Labrathisattva / Zen Rat, Infinity Sideways, wonderVu, and many others -- Fade is only his seventh solo release in 30-plus years of musicmaking. As is the case with some of his other solo records (e.g. After Silence and Metric), Fade represents the demonstration of a particular working method that Mike has found creatively rewarding. Rather than describe the method here and invite debate over its merits or drawbacks, we merely present Fade as it is: six tracks of somber beauty, driving energy, meditative repose, and soaring triumph. "...but is there a place for the one who holds his dream in the palm of his hand?"

From his near ubiquitous cartoon music, to his electronic instruments before their time. It took 50 years for the world to catch up with his ideas that are so prevalent in popular music today. Unfortunately, Raymond Scott left us in 1994 before he had a chance to hear the future he envisioned. Aural Films reached out to audio and video artists from around the world to create their very own tribute to Raymond Scott's legacy and the many great things that were brought to life by Manhattan Research Inc. The response was hugely positive resulting in over 57 artists creating original tracks, and a video by Saul Wes, that pay tribute to Scott. The Raymond Scott Biography project has the support of Reckless Night LLC, the trust that oversees Scott's library and ongoing legacy. With this, the project's music will be added to the Raymond Scott Library. Stan Warnow, director of the "Deconstructing Dad" (2010) documentary film about his father's life, had this to say about the music produced for this project: “Listening to these tracks was a succession of aural delights. It's a remarkable collection that is a fitting tribute to my Dad--many tracks clearly directly descended (and sometimes sampled) from his electronic work. The word channeling is often used very loosely but in this case it's totally appropriate for those tracks--as if my father were still alive and revisiting his work from 50 years ago. But others are just as delightful as original stand alone works inspired by Raymond Scott. And knowing so many talented musicians from all over the world were inspired to create these works is a new inspiration for those of us who have been working for many years to ensure and enlarge Raymond Scott's musical legacy. I know my father would have been thrilled to be honored in this way.” - Stan Warnow released September 10, 2016 See the individual tracks for more info on each of the artists. Cover designs by Colin Powell, Jack Hertz, Peter Davidson, & Thomas Park. Special thanks to Irwin Chusid, Stan Warnow, Jeff Winner, Reckless Night LLC, all the artists who contributed, and Raymond Scott for leading the way. About Raymond Scott Raymond Scott was a composer, bandleader, arranger, engineer, orchestra conductor, electronphic music pioneer, inventor, and philosopher-visionary. Fans of Warner Bros. Cartoons will recognize pieces such as "Powerhouse", "Dinner Music for a Pack of Hungry Cannibals" and "War Dance for Wooden Indians" to name a few of his early compositions. Later, Scott's Manhattan Research became an innovator in electronic music instrument design, production, and composition for commercial and corporate branding promotion and popular music such as Motown Records. His unique inventions allowed him to create futuristic sounds that were highly in-demand in advertising new digital computers, consumer electronics, and other space-age products.

(1:05:28) Aural Films is excited to present the final installment, "Just Fourier You!" That is being offered with the first four Computer Music releases as special collection of works. The Computer Music series features recordings inspired by the early computer composition systems such as the MUSIC-N, RCA and Buchla systems. These long-form recordings are part of an on-going pursuit to bring adventurous ideas from the past, into the future. What makes the music in this series different from other modern compositions using a computer with digital audio workstations. Is this music was mostly auto-composed by the computer. The artist assumes more of a conditional role by setting up an environment with boundaries and functions for the computer algorithms to extrapolate notes, patterns, changes and even the timbre. Of particular focus is the use of the computer as an aid in developing long form compositions that evolve very slowly over an extended period of time. The results are not always desirable, but can offer new and exciting outcomes. The the best of these efforts have been captured in these recordings. released March 27, 2017 Jack Hertz - Programming, Composition, & Production. Anonymous Berkeley University Students - 1972 cover photo of Hewlett-Packard (HP) Fourier Analyzer 5451A.

Michael Meara - Dark Matter (59:32) Dark matter is an unidentified type of matter that makes up approximately 27% of the mass and energy in the observable universe. It is not accounted for by dark energy, ordinary matter or neutrinos. Dark Matter does not emit or interact with electromagnetic radiation, such as light, and is invisible to the entire electromagnetic spectrum. The existence of Dark Matter is inferred from its gravitational effects, such as the motion of visible matter, gravitational lensing, its influence on the universe's large-scale structure, and its effects on the cosmic microwave background. This long-form minimal ambient piece takes inspiration from this hidden and subliminal phenomenon and is thus mastered to be played at low volume. released November 14, 2016 Michael Meara - Sounds and production. Michael Meara works either in the vein of cold void space ambience or the warmer currents of classical ambient drift. The artists' ultimate aim is to aid in the navigation of various sleep-states by providing the appropriate soundtrack to deep inner journeying.

Everybody has implants which allows them to stay permanently connected to the net directly through their consciousness. In the world of humans, everything seems to be happening simultaneously online and offline with no clear boundaries between the two realities. Separating what is real from what is virtual has lost much of its meaning. Many types of neural interconnection engines exist, but one of them is completely unlike the others; first intended as a learning algorithm to interpret dreams, it has evolved into something entirely different. The Abstract is an autonomous AI program which interfaces with the dreaming brain, getting its information directly from the subconscious while at the same time uniting other dreamers and feeding its data back to them. From this network of dreaming people a new reality is emerging. Ruled by the subconscious, it is an irrational world in constant flux, fuelled by primal instincts and ancient archetypes. released January 2, 2017 Muied Lumens - Sounds and Production.

This very special release is dedicated to restoring our planet to the Tree's care by planting more of them. Now, you can personally make a difference by planting more trees when you buy this music created exclusively for this project by Jack Hertz & Wolfgang Gsell. Our forests are disappearing. We need your help to plant trees and restore forests around the globe. Forests not only provide clean air and water, but they also hold vast amounts of carbon dioxide and act as a cooling system for the Earth; they stabilize the global climate and fight climate change. When nearly half of the trees have been removed from the planet by humans. The home to 80% of the Earth’s land-based plants and animals. We must recognize that forests are essential to the livelihood of all people around the world. You can personally make a difference by buying this music. All the proceeds from this album will be given to the Plant a Billion Trees project, AND you get hours of engaging new music for planting more trees. Simply enter the suggested amount, or more, and you are helping restore Earth's forests. released January 9, 2017 This album is dedicated to Wolfgang Gsell. Jack Hertz & Wolfgang Gsell - Sounds and Production. Wolfgang Gsell,1956 born in Stuttgart, Germany. He works as web designer, photographer and music composer. At 15, he began to play guitar.

More at JackHertz.com The Plant a Billion Trees campaign is an unprecedented restoration initiative launched by The Nature Conservancy in 2008. Our first project was to restore Brazil's Atlantic Forest, and now we have expanded to include forest projects in the United States and China. By planting trees and helping forests regrow where they have been severely degraded, we're helping to ensure clean water, air, diverse species and full, healthy forests for future generations.

Mystified - Concrete Expanse (45:03) 24Bit "Concrete Expanse" was created using sounds I recorded in my Saint Louis neighborhood a decade ago. It follows a thread in my thoughts to try and create music that captures the atmosphere of the city. No "actual" instruments were used in this recording. You can find more about this and similar recordings in the "New Industrial" section at www.mystifiedmusic.com released January 23, 2017 Mystified - Sounds, recording and production. The music of Mystified is mainly of an atmospheric nature. Sometimes less is more, making his music ideal for listening while working, sleeping or doing other things. The music of Mystified especially explores texture, consistency, and a type of variety that could be called subtle. This is not the utopian ambient of the typical soundscape artist. It is serious music for serious people. More on his work is available at MystifiedMusic.com Aural Films Catalog No. AF0183 foobar2000 1.2.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Charles Rice Goff III - Vast (3:57) Since the 1970's, Charles Rice Goff III has been producing unique audio, visual, and literary art. While nearly all of this art has been made public through Goff’s own Taped Rugs Productions label over the years, much of it also has been released by other producers located throughout five continents. Goff has collaborated with 100's of artists around the world as well, taking an active roll as a member of the world-wide avant garde community. The collection of recordings in this biographical set focuses primarily on Goff's audio collaborations. Listeners interested in Goff's large quantity of purely solo works, or in his visual or literary productions, can find many of them available on the internet at archive.org. The Taped Rugs website at www.tapedrugs.com offers several menus to help locate specific works as well. BIOGRAPHY DISC 1: MAGNETIC ROOTS Tracks 1 - 10 MAGNETIC ROOTS provides listeners with samples of Goff’s collaborative work created on magnetic tape in the 1980’s and 1990’s. Goff was a member of four recording/performing projects during that time. -Ing, Disism, and Herd Of The Ether Space were all based in the East San Francisco Bay Area. Turkey Makes Me Sleepy was formed when Goff moved to Lawrence, Kansas, in the mid 1990’s. Each of these four projects incorporated a wide variety of instruments, non instruments, genres, and non-genres into their recordings and performances. Improvisation, sound collage, social commentary, and humor are elements common to the productions of all of these groups. One thing in particular that also makes each of these groups a genuine contributor to the unique Taped Rugs family of artists is that they all incorporated tape recorders as instruments - looping, editing, and manipulating recording tape to create one-of-a-kind sounds. Membership in each of these groups centered around a small core of individuals, but often other artists took part of their activities. Each of these groups also produced several very lengthy recordings, which could not be presented here because of limited space. Listeners interested in further exploring the recordings of these groups can find many of them available online at archive.org. BIOGRAPHY DISC 2: DIGITAL SCULPTURE Tracks 11 - 32 DIGITAL SCULPTURE provides listeners with samples of Goff's collaborative experimental work created with computer software. Goff made contacts with artists all over the world during the 1980's and 1990's by exchanging cassette tapes through the post. As the 20th Century was ending, digital technologies began providing artists with new methods for recording and editing sounds. The ever-evolving internet also provided artists with a new and speedy pathway for communications and exchanges of recordings. Goff took advantage of these new technologies to increase his collaboratating activities with associates around the globe, producing sonic sculptures by digitally collaging and embellishing the recordings of others with his own. His history with tape manipulation and improvisation influenced his approaches to stretching the normal parameters of digital recording as well, resulting in a wide variety of one-of-a-kind productions. DIGITAL SCULPTURE showcases only a sampling of the artists with whom Goff has produced unique digitally-engineered recordings over the years. He has co-created several very lengthy recordings as well, which could not be presented in this collection because of limited space. Listeners who are interested in hearing Goff's longer collaborative works and/or his collaborations with other sound artists can find many of them online at archive.org. BIOGRAPHY DISC 3: PAINTING WITH VOICES Tracks 33 - 54 Since the 1970's, Charles Rice Goff III has been producing unique audio, visual, and literary art. While nearly all of this art has been made public through Goff’s own Taped Rugs Productions label over the years, much of it also has been released by other producers located throughout five continents. Goff has collaborated with 100's of artists around the world as well, taking an active roll as a member of the world-wide avant garde community. The collection of recordings in this biographical set focuses primarily on Goff's audio collaborations. Listeners interested in Goff's large quantity of purely solo works, or in his visual or literary productions, can find many of them available on the internet at archive.org. The Taped Rugs website at www.tapedrugs.com offers several menus to help locate specific works as well. PAINTING WITH VOICES provides listeners with samples of Goff's "songwriting." These recordings contain familiar song elements such as melodies, refrains, lyrics, etc. However, the arrangements, choices of instruments, embellishments with sounds not normally considered musical, etc., make these pieces uniquely Goff's. Many of the melodies and lyrics in these songs were dreamed in his sleep. Also, as the title suggests, Goff sings on each of these recordings. PAINTING WITH VOICES features several collaborations with other artists; however, this collection also contains some pieces completely composed, performed, and produced by Goff alone. Goff's musical influences stretch to all edges of genre and beyond. Each of his songs has a life of its own, and, thus, projects a style and other qualities that are particularly applicable to it. As with the recordings on the other two discs in this collection, sound collage, improvisation, social commentary, humor, and unique recording techniques are all showcased in this collection. While not well represented here, it should be noted that Goff also has recorded many interpretations of songs written by other artists. His approach to these interpretations generally produces recordings that range very far from their original designs. Also, while Goff recorded quite a few songs on magnetic tape during the 20th Century, this collection only features digitally recorded songs from the 21st Century. Listeners interested in hearing his tape-recorded songs or his "cover songs" can find many of them online at archive.org. released February 6, 2017 Charles Rice Goff III - All tracks, unless otherwise noted.

Over the course of 7 months, 48 states and 20,000 miles, Thollem composed seven unique soundtracks for the monthly series. These three discs contain the majority of those recordings. Thollem forges elements from the wide array of sounds he's been inspired by in this extremely multi-cultural country from Bluegrass to Gamelan, Punk to Free Jazz, Salsa to Noise, Baroque to Hip-Hop to Persian music and much more. released February 23, 2017 This is Thollem's 2nd release on Aural Films following Operation Sunbeam in 2016 Aural Films Catalog No. AF0186 ----------------------- foobar2000 1.2.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Be sure to click through to the track page to read more about each one. A mask is an object normally worn on the face, typically for protection, disguise, performance, or entertainment. Masks have been used since antiquity for both ceremonial and practical purposes. They are usually worn on the face, although they may also be positioned for effect elsewhere on the wearer's body. In parts of Australia, giant totem masks cover the body, whilst Inuit women use finger masks during storytelling and dancing. The use of masks in rituals or ceremonies is a very ancient human practice across the world, although masks can also be worn for protection, in hunting, in sports, in feasts, or in wars – or simply used as ornamentation. Some ceremonial or decorative masks were not designed to be worn. Although the religious use of masks has waned, masks are used sometimes in drama therapy or psychotherapy. released February 27, 2017 Eisenlager - Devices, Sounds, Rituals.

Our forests are disappearing. We need your help to plant trees and restore forests around the globe. Forests not only provide clean air and water, but they also hold vast amounts of carbon dioxide and act as a cooling system for the Earth; they stabilize the global climate and fight climate change. When nearly half of the trees have been removed from the planet by humans. The home to 80% of the Earth’s land-based plants and animals. We must recognize that forests are essential to the livelihood of all people around the world. You can personally make a difference by buying this music. All the proceeds from this album will be given to the Plant a Billion Trees project, AND you get 2.5 hours of engaging new music for planting more trees. Simply enter the suggested amount, or more, and you are helping restore Earth's forests. released April 28, 2017 Aural Films Catalog No. AF0193 ----------------------- foobar2000 1.2.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01. Mystified - Under The City (32:06) 24Bit "Under The City" is a continuation of a study by Mystified of urban atmospheres. In this case, he uses only sounds recorded in South City Saint Louis, processed, layered, and composed, to connote the vast network of pipes and other structures that can be found beneath cities. In The "New Industrial" tradition, only field recordings are used as source material. released May 8, 2017 Mystified - Sounds, recording and production. The music of Mystified is mainly of an atmospheric nature. Sometimes less is more, making his music ideal for listening while working, sleeping or doing other things. The music of Mystified especially explores texture, consistency, and a type of variety that could be called subtle. This is not the utopian ambient of the typical soundscape artist. It is serious music for serious people. More on his work is available at MystifiedMusic.com Aural Films Catalog No. AF0194 foobar2000 1.2.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Wanderers near this spot are said, from time to time, to have been terrified by the "dismal chimes of the bells pealing over the murmuring sea." --T. F.

Sensing kindred spirits, they decided to try working together. Without a master plan, they proceeded to provide each other with sonic territories to discover what mappings could be found. Although separated by 8,675 kilometers of a continent and an ocean, they forged some charts of the territories that sonically unite them. In some places, very detailed; in others, a bird's eye view of the spaces between Madrid and Oregon. Their similar latitudes (41.52N and 45.59N, respectively) may provide a hint of the environments they draw from and are inspired by. released July 17, 2017 Jaime Munárriz Aural Films Catalog No. AF0203 foobar2000 1.2.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

This was the approach for "A Passage Through Time" from the year 2012 created by experimental musician Christian Fiesel. Beyond this album was a loss, during the creation of the album, the mother of the artist declined mentally and died after release. So "A Passage Through Time" is an emotional journey through the tides of life by the means of electronic soundscapes. The music meanders between drone, dark ambient and ambient. released August 14, 2017 Dedicated Uta Kaper. Thanks to Jack (as usual) for all your support. Christian Fiesel - no instruments. This album was created only by usage of the freeware Audacity (www.audacity.de) Every sound has its own story. And each story can be completely different. That said, Christian Fiesel is trying to cross all borders of electronic and experimental music. His interest is not about being into a specific genre but to dare anything at least just once. All sources are allowed. So you won't find any impressive list of gear but the will to create atmospheres with a minimum of starting material. Christian wants the listeners to close their eyes and to open their minds to be brought to an unexpected place.

Michael Meara - Longing (9:38) The inspiration for this record is the aging process. As we age, the following usually occurs: Focusing on close objects becomes harder. The lens becomes denser, making seeing in dim light harder. The lens also yellows, changing the way we perceive colours. The number of cells in the spinal cord begins to decrease. The amount of active bone marrow, where blood cells are produced, decreases. Our skin tends to become thinner, less elastic & drier. Nerve cells may lose some of their receptors for messages. Blood flow to the brain decreases, thus the brain may function slightly less well. We may react and do tasks more slowly. The ability to taste and smell starts to gradually diminish. Hearing high-pitched sounds becomes more difficult (known as presbycusis) making some words become harder to understand. released August 21, 2017 Michael Meara - Processed guitar and Synths.

Martin Neuhold - Gerlitzen (12:40) „dahaam“ (Austrian word for „at home“) is sort of a soundtrack to a memory movie. My father was born in Kärnten (southern Austria) and in my childhood days, we used to go there quite often. It always felt like going home, especially as I was a bit of an outsider in the town where we lived. This year, I spent my holidays there and the feeling of „coming home“ was still there. I decided to try to turn my memories and feelings into music and as I had my iPad with me, started right there to do it. Notes on the tracks: The Seebach is a small river running behind the house of my relatives. We used to swim in there and I spent a lot of time there, thinking about this and that and watching the water roll by. St. Andrae is the name of the small village where my relatives live and where we spent many summers. Today it’s a part of Villach. Landskron is an old castle above that town with a great view. This track goes back to the memory of a cloudy and foggy day when I looked down at St. Andrae in the mist. My friend Wolfgang Gsell added some perfect sounds to this track. The Heiligenkreuzkirche (church of the holy cross) is a church in Villach that fascinated me when I was a child (and still does). The Gerlitzen is a mountain near Villach, a wonderful place with a great view, a place where you are above it all and can get your mind clear of everything. released September 4, 2017 Martin Neuhold: iPad synths, guitar, tank drum Wolfgang Gsell: additional synths on track 3 Martin Neuhold is an Ambient and Downtempo artist, iOS Musician from Germany.

Our forests are disappearing. We need your help to plant trees and restore forests around the globe. Forests not only provide clean air and water, but they also hold vast amounts of carbon dioxide and act as a cooling system for the Earth; they stabilize the global climate and fight climate change. When nearly half of the trees have been removed from the planet by humans. The home to 80% of the Earth’s land-based plants and animals. We must recognize that forests are essential to the livelihood of all people around the world. You can personally make a difference by buying this music. All the proceeds from this album will be given to the Plant a Billion Trees project, AND you get hours of engaging new music for planting more trees. Simply enter the suggested amount, or more, and you are helping restore Earth's forests. released October 9, 2017 Click on the track pages for more information on each artist. All track rights revert to their original owners. About Plant a Billion Trees The Plant a Billion Trees campaign is an unprecedented restoration initiative launched by The Nature Conservancy in 2008. Our first project was to restore Brazil's Atlantic Forest, and now we have expanded to include forest projects in the United States and China. By planting trees and helping forests regrow where they have been severely degraded, we're helping to ensure clean water, air, diverse species and full, healthy forests for future generations.

Tim Kays - Submarine Dreams (21:47) 03. Tim Kays - Restoration (14:50) 24Bit The Analog Eyes in a Digital World series has, at its core, the concept of perspectives and viewpoints of the same things...just from different points in time. How many cutting edge technological advances made in the latter part of the 20th Century are currently the denizens of the dustbin of history? Think about it...those that thought that the compact disc was the ultimate in audio technology were in fact the sons and daughters of those who, just twenty years earlier, thought that no one could ever improve upon the Muntz 4-track system. It's all about perspectives drawn from life experiences. Now, with the release of the fourth and final installment of the Analog Eyes in a Digital World series, we go back in time to examine the perspectives, viewpoints, visions and dreams of those whose concepts of modern technology were products of the Age of Steam. Westward (to America) attempts to soundtrack an imaginary slideshow of the black and white cabinet card images of the tens of thousands of 19th century common people that, forsaking family and friends, often parlayed their last cent into steerage class passage upon a steamship, bound for a new life in the beacon of hope, freedom and prosperity to the west called...America. I would suggest looking up these old photos and videos on the internet, then viewing them while Westward (to America) plays in the background. As you look into their faces, you will hear their dreams of a new life ahead, set to the slow rolling motion of a westbound ship upon the Atlantic. Submarine Dreams holds to the same timeframe of Westward, except it is from a vantage point beneath the rolling waves, aboard the Nautilus. Looking through the portholes of the legendary ship, you can see why Captain Nemo prefers this world as opposed to that where mankind rules with a violent disregard for life. The cabin lights are dimmed, and exterior lighting and primitive microphones are engaged so that you not only see the teeming life that swims around you, but you can also hear it. Submarine Dreams gives you the perspective of Captain Nemo, and a passage to what is truly, the final frontier. One of my heroes, the late Edgar Froese, said, "There is no death, there is just a change of our cosmic address." The Vulcans call that place Vorta Vor or Sha Ka Ree. To the ancient Greek culture, this place was called Elysium. Some view it as becoming one with the light, while others see it as transcending the mortal, and passing into a heavenly domain of the immortal. Almost always, it is described as, 'going to a better place'. Restoration is the soundtrack for, and about those who are making that journey to a better place, as composed from the perspective of those who are left behind. Sorrow and hopefulness in equal measure...opening and closing with the voices of the Elysian Fields. May these three portals into other places, times and dimensions provide you with peace and new insights.

George L Smyth - Chiron (22:39) Aural Films welcomes a new release from composer George L Smyth. Join us for his wonderful album that depicts the stories of Chiron and Ophiuchus, two of the constellations in the sky. Ophiuchus The zodiac consists of the twelve constellations through which the sun passes. When the zodiac was first invented the sun did not pass through the constellation Ophiuchus, however, because of the precession of the earth, the eclipti now passes through the southern regions of the constellation in the first half of December. Ophiuchus is in four parts. Largo Ophiuchus was identified by the Greeks as Asclepius, who was the son of Apollo and Coronis. Apollo took his child to Chiron, the wise centaur, who taught him the art of healing. Asclepius found that his healing herbs could raise the dead. Adagio While most might think the ability to be a great thing, this was not the case with Hades, who feared the flow of dead asouls into his domain would cease, so he complained to his brother Zeus, who killed... more released September 17, 2018 Following a forty year hiatus of composing music, George L Smyth now spends an inordinate amount of effort trying to make up for lost time. He uses traditional orchestral instruments to create soundscapes that encompass ideas and stories in the hopes that they will fit the spaces of the time available to us.

Tim Kays - K Khorus (4:56) 02. Tim Kays - A Day By La Su An (19:25) 03. Tim Kays - Deep Woods (28:33) 24Bit As the glaciers of the last Ice Age retreated to the north, they scoured the landscape, leaving behind several clues of their existence. One of those clues is the subterranean Michindoh Glacial Outwash Aquifer. The Michindoh encompasses portions of seven counties in three states...Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. Although small in geographic size, the Michindoh is one of the most productive aquifers in the region, and is the sole source of life sustaining fresh water to nearly two dozen communities. In areas where the Michindoh bubbles to the surface, it does so in freely flowing artesian springs, which in turn feeds local waterways and marsh areas. Life can be found in abundance in these areas. On warm summer nights across the Michindoh, that animal and insect life tunes up and sings an overnight serenade. Those serenades, recorded over several different locations across the surface of the Michindoh in 2017, form the basis of the music contained in this album. K Khorus - The rural roads in my county are laid out in grids, with the numbered roads going north and south, and the lettered roads going east and west. For about one week every spring, there is a loud nighttime chorus of thousands of very vocal amphibians in the swampy land at the corner of County Roads 15 and K. On this evening, I caught them as the midnight hour approached on the clock, and a thunderstorm approached from the west. A Day By La Su An - Situated about 1,000 feet to the west of the intersection of County Roads R and 7 in the northwest part of the county, the Lake La Su An Wildlife Area is not just Amphibian Alley. The roads are cut through heavily forested wetlands that in spots are practically unchanged from the days when members of the Potawatomi Nation roamed freely through the area. The traveling through the area is best kept at a slow pace because the white tail deer and other animals outnumber humans exponentially. This recording catches the southern tip of Lake La Su An in the morning, the afternoon, the evening and the nighttime. As you can hear, the denizens of La Su An are well versed in the ancient tongues of their respective species. Deep Woods - With Beaver Creek just to the south, and a heavily wooded ravine cutting through the wetlands just to the north, this is the sound from just outside my bedroom window that sings me to sleep on a warm summer night. We've got it pretty good here on the Michindoh...but I might be a tad on the biased side. released November 19, 2018 All tracks composed, produced and engineered by Tim Kays in the Studio in the Clouds in Bryan, Ohio, in 2017 Naturescapes recorded during the Summer of 2017 in locations across Williams and Fulton Counties of Ohio Tim Kays uses Gibson, Fender, Steinberger and Washburn guitars, Line-6 and Fender amplification, and Moog, Roland, Korg, Arturia, Plasma and Planet-H synthesizers, pedals and modules Cover art by Tim Kays Photos shot at the Retention Pond near Bryan, Ohio Aural Films Catalog No. AF0228 foobar2000 1.2.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Incantations How to emerge from the cleavage duality by accepting opposites as true each one seen in the totality they constitute. No feminine without masculine, no evil without good, no noise without silence, no day without night. A dynamic wholeness, witness of itself and which cannot be reduced to synthesis or unity. 2. Incandescence Rubbing against the dark matter to find a transfigured light 3. Initiations The last piece is a live recording of music composed for choreography. It is made up of several motifs that offered a guideline for dancers who had no other instructions than to let themselves be carried away by the musical proposal, hence the notion of an initiatory journey that spawned coherence in the unknown. released October 28, 2019 All tracks written, played and produced by Philippe Wauman aka Anantakara between September and October 2019 at Prismage Studio – Louvain-la-neuve (Belgium).

Jack Hertz - Smoke & Mirrors (5:25) Blackouts is a collection of new works inspired by and composed during the recent events in Northern California. This album is dedicated to all who face the strange calamity of depending on companies that put us in harms way without recourse. There is s certain irony in an electronic music album about the rolling blackouts in California. When electricity was shut off with little warning, people in cities, towns, and all walks of life were left in the dark with only the excuse that Pacific Gas & Electric didn't want to be liable for another wild fire. In the time since, we have learned a lot about our reliance on them and how powerless we are, in both senses of the word. released November 25, 2019 Jack Hertz: Eurorack Programming, Composition and Production.

Jack Hertz - Happy Beats (1:42) With everyone wanting a Synclavier for $200,000. Yamaha created an affordable music system that retailed for only $500. Introduced in 1984, the Yamaha CX5M Music Computer was an actual home computer combined with a built-in 4-OP FM synthesizer module, sound editors and sequencer. As Yamaha's own promotion put it: "The CX5M is a computer. But certainly not an ordinary computer. It has been designed specifically to be used by musicians, composers and arrangers. both amateur and professional, to produce music in ways that were never before possible." Unfortunately, a QWERTY keyboard and TV monitor had no place in the studios in 1984, but it got my attention with all it had to offer for how little I had to spend. This album is a document of my first works with the Yamaha CX5M Music Computer. The unreleased tracks were composed exclusively on the CX5M between 1984 and 1985. Originally recorded on 4-track cassettes, these primitive recordings reflect the sound of an exciting time in music history when people began to compose with computers at home. released February 11, 2020 NOTE - These recordings were transferred from the original analog masters, distortion, crackling, hiss and other sonic issues inherent to the medium may be heard.

For some time now, my music has been increasingly influenced by the external circumstances of the world we live. In this regard, I would like my work to be understood as an acoustic, musical commentary. Corroded Immunity meets a world in a state of emergency in the context of a biological as well as medical crisis caused by a pandemic. But it is also a observation of how we as a society deal with this threat. Therefore, this album has three parts (or three tracks) that represent different perceived levels of threat. The first piece is a distant, rather global mood caused by the increasing threat of the crisis, the second piece expresses the own restriction or isolation in succession. The last and shortest piece is the immediate outbreak on the spot. released April 6, 2020 This album was created and produced in March 2020 by Christian Fiesel All tracks ©℗2019 Christian Fiesel Aural Films Catalog No. AF0254 foobar2000 1.2.5 / Dynamic Range Meter 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Inspired by small and big things, this album is a journey from the quiet of a small summer meadow to the awfulness of the immense cosmic space. It is one soul's attempt to sincerely speak to other souls, an invitation to curiously observe how microcosm and macrocosm mirror each other. All the pieces were created using an old 4 track cassette recorder, mixing field recordings, samples, and synthesizer sounds. They were recorded live to capture unique, imperfect moments in time and space. released September 21, 2020 Cover photo: NASA-ESA (public domain) ----------------------- foobar2000 1.2.5 / Dynamic Range Meter 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Mystified - Free And Loose (8:39) 24Bit Hip Hop has changed a lot over the years, and so have movies about living in the city. A theme of being arrested, whether legitimately or not, is common in many of these films. "Sirens Never Far", an allusion to the omnipresence of siren sounds in urban environments, uses a special new form of hip hop, "Generative Hip Hop", to trace a mysterious person's passage through the American legal system. Getting arrested can sometimes be found to be unfair, and can ruin a life. It can also be transformative and lead to better things, depending on how the person is treated, and how they react. Thomas Park is in favor of a fair and compassionate legal system, in which crimes are met with proportionate sentencing and ethical treatment. "Sirens Never Far" is his homage to the urban reality of coming face to face with law enforcement. released November 9, 2020 All compositions, mixing and mastering by Thomas Park.

Jack Hertz - Yesterday (13:47) 24Bit In September of 2011, I was booked to do a tour of shows and festivals on the East Coast. Sadly, two days before I was to leave I discovered our cat, Boo, had terminal cancer. Unsure how long she would survive, I canceled the tour. Knowing another day was not guaranteed, we cherished every moment we had left. The tracks for this album were recorded during this period. Each piece reflects on the intense despair, and love that I had for one of my closest friends. Boo was such a brave, darling, sweet cat, with a heavy proclivity for mischief. I once discovered her up in a tree hanging out with two raccoons, if that tells you anything about her. released December 7, 2020 This album was originally released on the Free Floating Music label.

What makes this a little different is that all of the music has been generated. How noir is that? The processor itself is defining the gritty city of our celluloid dreams. Thomas set up a generative scenario with his Python routines, and knew he had hit paydirt when he heard the music pouring forth. It was like a cop on night beat, like a bad guy dreaming of escape. It was so realistic you almost believed the dream. I know my Hewlett Packard did. released December 14, 2020 Credits: Music and Cover Art by Thomas Park foobar2000 1.2.5 / Dynamic Range Meter 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Each track has for title one of the epithets that the ancient Egyptians granted her. This goddess swallowed the sun every evening to give birth to it every morning. It is the only civilization for which the sky was feminine and the earth masculine. I also wanted to pay homage to a cat who accompanied me for many years. I received her on the occasion of my 13th birthday when I was going through a very difficult emotional period. Spontaneously I gave her the name of the Egyptian goddess. She was black as the night, feline as the moon. released December 28, 2020 ----------------------- foobar2000 1.2.5 / Dynamic Range Meter 1.1.1  Tracklist:01. Jack Hertz - A Dream... (3:32) 02.

Or about the theme for an '80s sci-fi tv show... Or, again, imagine the electronic remake of a David Bowie or Pink Floyd song. Or, maybe, think about all these things at once. This is "12 Stories". Every song, a possible story... but without a narrator nor a script. The story takes place in the head of the listener, entrusted to her/his own imagination. Track by track, rough analog synthesizers weave with polished samples and flow through patterns which, with simplicity, hold up the listener with solid electronic drums, like a conveyor belt. Composed during 2018/19, this instrumental electronic album is rooted into Electro / Magnetic's experience as Hip-Hop beat maker, but it's widely open to experimentations. Here he collected some of his favorite older works into an album bond together by a strong concept. Anyway, don't take it too serious: in the end he composed this music with the similar spirit of a kid who, in the late '80s, was playing with Lego blocks on the carpet in his living room, while on TV there's an episode of "He-man and the Masters of the Universe". released January 11, 2021 foobar2000 1.2.5 / Dynamic Range Meter 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

The individual sound pieces are acoustic interpretations of different types of clouds. The titles of the individual soundscapes have their origin in Luke Howard's classification of clouds.

Jack Hertz - 7.832 Hz (extended mix) (44:44) (24Bit) The music on this album was inspired by the documentary ‘Resonance - Beings of Frequency.’ Where I learned that the planet Earth has a resonant frequency of 7.83 Hz. Originally detected in 1899 by Nikola Tesla, it was Winfried Otto Schumann who formulated the theoretical aspects in the mid-1950s of the global resonances that are now referred to as the ‘Schumann resonances.’ The notion that the Earth is an oscillator onto itself was so inspiring. A flood of ideas for new ambient compositions came to me. Since frequencies under 20 hertz cannot be perceived by the human ear. I incorporated the Earth's tone in other ways. Using them as a basis for sound modulation, binaural beats, pulses and the frequency intervals of LFOs, filters and oscillators based on the fundamental 7.83 and multiples such as 14.3, 20.8, 27.3 and 33.8 Hz. As it turns out, the use of these frequency intervals worked out such that the finished tracks unintentionally complement each other when played simultaneously in various combinations. Listen to this on the bonus track 6, "7.832 Hz (extended mix)", included in this release. released February 8, 2021 ----------------------- foobar2000 1.2.5 / Dynamic Range Meter 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.

Simon Slator - Subterranea Europa I (20:50) 02. Simon Slator - Subterranea Europa II (20:09) 24Bit On the rare occasions I get the TV all to myself, I occasionally like to indulge in the odd episode of "The Universe". I particularly enjoy episodes about the planets in the Solar System, and if I recall, Jupiter and its moons spanned a whole episode. In that episode, there was a section about Europa, a moon that's theorised to contain an ocean of liquid water under its icy surface. Now let's imagine what the future holds for this little moon. At some point, many years into the future, mankind has sent a probe to Europa, which has successfully drilled through the surface and into the subterranean ocean below. After the initial scientific exploration, JOVIsion - a video streaming service focused on the Jovian system - sends cameras under the Europan surface for the first time, creating a documentary series on the wonders of its subterranean oceans, from the still blackness of its shallows to the the thermal vents at its depths; teeming with single-cellular life that can survive even on a moon within Jupiter's magnetic and radioactive spheres. I envisioned such a documentary, which would sit part-way between Jacques Cousteau and David Attenborough, would have a rather minimal-yet-immersive soundtrack to accompany its visuals. released March 15, 2021 Composed and Produced by Simon Slator throughout February 2021.

Version) (3:00) Beams is San Francisco musician Eric Pietras' full-length debut record on the Aural Films netlabel. Originally developed as a soundtrack for a time-lapse photography project, Beams took on a life of its own as a soundtrack for places and moments experienced in the San Francisco Bay Area. A collection of nine musical vignettes that invite the listener to meander through the islands, hills and little-explored nooks of Northern California, Beams features colorful arrangements of layered synthesizers, mellotrons, electric pianos, hacked drum machines and field recordings from the Bay Area and beyond. Both documentarian and dreamlike, this record is the culmination of several years' musical and personal exploration, and is the realization of a longtime vision. Connecting a diverse array of musical genres, influences, and mis-hearings into a work that calls to mind Popul Vuh, Brian Eno, Boards of Canada and Andrew Coleman, Beams was recorded both at home and at Tiny Telephone in San Francisco, where it was lovingly mixed and strategically dirtied by Jay Pellici, and mastered by Los Angeles ambient/experimental artist Sean McCann. Digital download features three bonus tracks, including an alternate version of the track 'Sky Blue Morning,' which appeared on the Sound For Good release 'This Music Plants Trees.' released July 28, 2015 All pieces by Eric Pietras Recorded at home and at Tiny Telephone, ----------------------- foobar2000 1.3.5 / Замер динамического диапазона (DR) 1.1.1  Tracklist:01.
