We are very excited to announce we will bring you three new releases in the course of March. There are two great ambient albums by Secoya and Heinali; deep, profound, searced and found! They will be followed by an amazing post-rock album by Maïak, probably it will be one of the best post-rock albums you are going to hear in 2015.
Let’s start with the ambient albums.
Secoya
“Ghosts”
Release Date: 6 March 2015
Listen the preview track & pre-order
Secoya is an ambient / experimental project of George Robinson, a producer from Bristol, UK. He started his musical journey by playing piano at early age. George’s music is characterised by commonly extensive dynamic changes. These contrasting atmospheres develop in nostalgic and melodic brand of ambient music. Ghosts is the debut album from Secoya. The album combines reverb laden melodies and nostalgic chord progressions with a lo-fi feel to create an aural reflection of Robinson’s thoughts, feelings and surroundings at that time. Listening to Secoya is like a gate opens to past for all of us. Get ready go through old movies, amusement parks and dusty things in the attic. Another surprising information is that all the artworks are done by our label founder Taner Torun.
Heinali
“A Wave Crashes”
Release Date: 15 March 2015
Listen the preview track & pre-order
Heinali is a project by a music composer and a sound artist from Ukraine, Oleg Shpudeiko. Oleg is a self-taught artist, who started to compose in 2003 and even though his music style can be defined as stylistically eclectic, many of his compositions are electroacoustic and often incorporate sound processing methods and techniques. The upcoming album by Heinali, “A Wave Crashes” consists of material recorded during electroacoustic studio improvisations incorporating analogue synthesizers and analogue and digital sound processing. It’s a kind of a sound sculpture of a certain moment almost frozen in time, letting you experience it from the different angles of space.
Maϊak
“A Very Pleasant Way To Die”
Release Date: 20 March 2015
Listen the preview track & pre-order
Created in 2010 in Lausanne, Switzerland, Maïak is composed of four musicians influenced by wide dynamics of post-rock soundscapes and fearless to experiment sudden shifts of atmospheres. The group was named after Maïak, a nuclear plant in the Soviet Union, where one of the worst nuclear disasters of all times took place and despite its dramatic consequences, stayed hidden for decades. Their album is filled with the symbolic weight of a catastrophe that arose as the punishment of man’s guilty arrogance in an outburst remained silent and delivers a dark and powerful instrumental rock that evolves between tenuous melancholy and chaotic blast. Listening to it, you would at times crave to lie down and gaze at the stars, but you would soon feel the urge to bounce back on your feet.
Also, April will be an amazing month; expect new releases by Max Lilja, Monochromie and Geary.
