Lights Dim - Under The Sun

Lights Dim ‎-- Deep Summer
Label: Audio Gourmet Netlabel -- AGN060
Format: 3 × File, MP3, EP, 320 kbps
Country: UK
Released: 23 May 2012
Genre: Electronic
Style: Field Recording, Drone, Ambient

"...Lights Dim. The man behind the project is Marek Kaminski, who has previously graced the Audio Gourmet label with his contribution to the Just A Moment compilation, released in 2011.
Marek has also self-released an album, which has since been made available again through AZH Promo and Preserved Sound.
The idea behind this EP was to create a piece of work, that would take the listener on a one day journey to a dry and dusty city, where they would experience the heat and the dirt of an urban summer. This is represented within the first two tracks. After these are allowed to settle in for a few minutes, eventually some comfort and rest is brought in to close the set in the form of 'Parades', which is intended to represent night fall, when the heat would subside a relieving calm sets in." - Audio Gourmet

Audio Gourmet Netlabel; A netlabel to showcase a collection of short albums and EPs that can be listened to in full during a standard working tea-break.

"On your average work tea break, this mere fifteen minutes is obviously not enough to listen to an album in full and thus this netlabel concept was born: "A netlabel to showcase a collection of short albums and E.Ps that can be listened to in full during a standard working tea-break." Over the forthcoming months, years, decades or however long I decide to run with the project, I hope to bring you some fine audio from a selection of top artists new and familiar." - Harry Towell (Audio Gourmet Netlabel)

Orbique - Love In Her Eyes



Various -- Of Men And Machines
Label: Rec72 -- co-compilation, Released: 17 Sep 2009 (also: Audiovisual Theorem -- AVTheorem017,Spain. Released:18 Aug 2009)
Format: File, MP3, Compilation, 192 kbps
Genre: Electronic, Hip Hop
Style: Breakbeat, Glitch, Abstract, Downtempo, Experimental
Cover arts have been designed by psycoded.

"Of Men And Machines" is an hommage to the relationship between machines and mankind. This compilation is considered to be a tribute to the perfect symbiosis men and machines can reach. Since the appearance of machines, they've been closely linked to the concept of progress. Every generation of machines is more perfect and mankind benefits from this evolution. "Of Men And Machines" demonstrates that creativity of human beings is multiplied exponentially with machines -- no question.

18 artists from around the world expound their personal relationship between machines and themselves to produce emotions and sounds. Thus the netlabels Audiovisual Theorem and rec72 employ the same relationship to approach the infinite possibilities and collaborate in a compilation that travels through a variety of music styles. Expect IDM all over the place, dance to Dubstep, chill with Triphop, make yourself comfortable with minimal house and let experimental Electronica run through your headphone

Audiovisual Theorem and rec72 Netlabel are really psyched about this release! To host those gifted and enthusiastic artists from all over the world. It is an overwhelming collection of innovative music including diverse genres. We are sure that this co-compilation will become a corner stone in Creative Commons music and collaboration, too as it is and was a great challenge to combine the output of so many artists and to melt it into one electronic and organic rock.

rec72′s artists share their music and video clips under Creative Commons. Which means you can download all music and visuals for free, copy them, share them with your friends. You can employ it to underscore your slide shows and clips on youtube, vimeo etc. Fill your next podcast show with our music. You can built upon the 2010 released works with non-commercial purpose; and you are allowed to use their stuff being released since 2011 in a commercial manner, as long as you share a-like!

About Phonocake:
Aiming to present the local electronic music scene on a wider scale, the Dresden based netlabel Phonocake releases electronic music by artists from Dresden since June 1, 2003. Since 2006 we also release music from friends and artists worldwide, from Russia, South America and Europe. We made the online music debuts of artists like Disrupt, Alec Tronic, Modul, Kryptic Universe, Madstyle and Mr. Incognito possible. Our musicians do their music mainly in the free time, but mostly for more than ten years. You can find music in the styles IDM, melodic Electronica, Experimental and all possible combinations of it here. We have a strong free access and free culture attitude. In 2010 we reactivated the label sleepycity.org as our sister label. Besides this Phonocake sees itself as a platform for artists to interact and act locally.

The music, we offer here and in the net is released with the so called Creative Commons Licence. This licence is especially good to protect the listeners, so they can download, listen and use the files safely under the conditions, not to sell or make money with the music. On the other hand all artists keep their (copy)rights. Offering music under a creative commons licence does not mean, that the artist looses anything.

Released: 23 Nov 2003
Genre: Electronic
Style: Minimal, Ambient

"A silent selection of ambient pieces brought to us by artists living all around Europe and still having close virtual relations to Bern city.
giving a slight idea where this section will go in the future, every tracks slowly evolves into an imaginary wideness that can probably only be experienced traveling through the sea." - Realaudio

Label: Realaudio -- raam002
Format: 8 × File, MP3, 192 kbps
Country: Switzerland
Released: 01 Jan 2004
Genre: Electronic
Style: Experimental, Minimal, Ambient

"Lomov from hamburg (.de) made a breathtaking and precise definition of where the ambient section of realaudio.ch leads to. the moment of rest and emptiness as a source for all movement, evolving into scapish soundstructures: jazz with the digital media seen in context to arts.

born in hannover, he studied history of arts, philosophy, archeology and sinology. after various exhibitions in fine arts from 1990-1999, he focussed his work on producing electronic music in the year 2000.

with this album lomov explores the border between sounds that can be recognized as music, and those which are beyond - breaking the limits of our habits and making them hearable.
beautiful ambient of an artist with a wide knowledge and horizon, in best tradition of tetsu inoue's silent works." - Realaudio

Format: 5 × File, MP3, 256 kbps
Country: Germany
Released: 28 May 2006
Genre: Electronic
Style: Techno, Electro, Minimal, Ambient

"Oscillating between icy sounds, sharp-cutted beats and mellow chords, Kiorda throws in all his production capabilities for this release. Five tracks that sound like excerpts taken from the perfect score for your favorite head movie... And let me guess - does it play in Scandinavia?

Why we run 1bit wonder
'Cause we like music. Not just electronic stuff, but all kinds of music. With 1bit wonder, we want to release what we think the world should have a chance to listen to. Style doesn't matter. It's just about our sense of good taste." - One Bit Wonder

Frank Molder - Softball



Frank Molder -- Come With Me
Label: One Bit Wonder -- 1bit 027
Format: 10 × File, MP3, 256 kbps
Country: Germany
Released: 12 Aug 2007
Genre: Electronic
Style: Broken Beat, IDM, Ambient

"With 1bit 027, Frank steps up for another beautiful ambient release: Melodies and bass lines in perfect harmony, backed up by soft broken beats. Being a big fan of Juno6, Frank took his "Inside the Blue" and gave it the unique Molder handwriting while the title track "Come With Me" shows us another, previously undisplayed side of himself: Forward striving and full of energy. This album impressively shows Frank's producing abilities and his development as an artist. We say: Chapeau!
