Linear Bells - Over & Over

 

"Winter

brushed by a burnt sky we will burn together
in the plaster of a cold gail pounding upon our breasts
with the charms of the afternoon chill and enchanted voices
we rest with the souls of winter".

      Released 14 December 2013

Jii Music - Spirit Walk

Jii-Music - Spirit Walk

Jiibay Shadow Dancer; Native American Indian (Ojibwe)
Sound designer & music producer.

In Jii's words describing her music: "Analogue, Ambient/Dark, Drone, Experimental Noise & Idm are where my musical passion thrives with a cinematic touch. Self taught in the area of music theory and incorporating real instruments: piano, violin, cello, Native flute & Native drumming can be found in many of my releases. Positive energies evolve creating soundscapes of emotion; many of the elements stem from my Native American (Ojibwe) heritage, these elements easily create their own fusion with originality, putting in motion, and a reflection of me; resulting in the ongoing project of Jii-Music.

After many years of composing music and performing live in classical violin/piano concerto competitions in my adolescent years, given honorable mention by the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra in my adult life and performing traditional Native American dance in intertribal powwows within the United States; my students and friends felt it was time to start releasing and sharing my unreleased music publicly or possibly look into some music netlabels. In 2012, my first EP and my first full album were released on a French netlabel, Sirona-Records. I've continued to release music in 2013 on CRL Studios, Treetrunk Records and Solanic Netlabel. The day I stop composing music will be the day I stop breathing."

Jii Music - Mourning The Wendigo

Jii-Music ‎-- Mourning The Wendigo
Label: Not On Label ‎-- none
Format: 5 × File, MP3, EP
Country: US
Released: 06 Jun 2013
Genre: Electronic
Style: Ambient, Dark Ambient, Drone
Album artwork by Blutspan

"Mourning The Wendigo is based on a Native American mythological spiritual creature. The last known Wendigo Ceremony conducted in the United States was at Lake Windigo of Star Island of Cass Lake, located within the Leech Lake Indian Reservation in Northern Minnesota.

Among the Assiniboine, the Cree & Ojibwe tribes, we share the belief that human beings could turn into Wendigos if they resorted to cannibalism and would become possessed by the demonic spirit of the Wendigo, often in a vision, in times of hardship or famine.

This album has a deep personal meaning; although not resorting to cannibalism, but having also experienced such visits of spiritual demonic mythological creatures within my visions during struggles of my own, I have been instructed by the medicine men/women and Elders of the Ojibwe Nation how to allow these demons to pass through me rather than to consume my mind, body and spirit ; keeping me from choosing a path of self destruction.

~With great respect to my bloodline~" - Jii-Music

Transient - Chiquesalunga

Music made deep in the woods. 
The big rabbit invites you, 
to listen to the sounds of the creek, 
the trees and the birds. ...

Released: 30 Oct 2013

Carl Martin aka Transient (Upstate New York, United States) has been producing electronic music since the early 1990's. At that time he was introduced to tracking software through the local BBS scene and began creating music on his trusty 286. Through the years he continued to use trackers (modedit, screamtracker 3, impulse tracker, modplug tracker) as his basic composition tool, eventually settling on Renoise. He has released music for many labels throughout the world, and is best known for a wide range of eclectic releases put out by various entities within the netlabel community. These days he's using his Transient moniker appropriately for one of his loves, the art of mobile music making via cell phones, pda's, and portable gaming systems.

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, 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.

Gimu - Alien Ancestry

And within a few moments of a tormented solitude
a following occurs of the most tranquil stability
resting sweetly again in the arms of an endurance
of an adored vulnerability lined with silk

Musicians are constantly evolving and they are continually giving us the gift of music. This netlabel serves as a platform to bring together different sound artists and to briefly experience the poetry of sound within ourselves." - Subterranean Tide

Through our circular ascension
We've come to this point

Everything else so distant
Only this beautiful blue breath

Ozone and emptiness falling
Into this one moment

This now

Mathieu Lamontagne ‎-- Persistance

"What caught my attention first when listening to "Persistance" was its subtlety. Through this balmy ambience I found myself in a complete relaxed state. Three thoroughly constructed pieces of refined, gentle and serene moments. With both light and dark rhythmic features, "Persistance" reflects our own fragile beings." - Emily F.
