    Reminiscent of the eighties era of cassettes, the Mail Art, the industry’s most insane music, noise and field recordings abrupt more rugged. His first work was published in RIR. And their aesthetic obsessions are confusion, anger, marginal world, and all the contradictions of this society bastard. His greatest influences are Whitehouse, Karkowski, Crass, Merzbow, Geometric Splendor and the personal universe of David Lynch..

    Mary X es la vertiente más visceral, minimalista y oscurantista de Sergio Sánchez, ruidista y fonografista que también firma como Jazznoize y Mao Sound System. Sus señas de identidad bajo el pseudónimo de Mary X son, las reminiscencias de la época ochentera de las cassettes, del Mail Art, la música industria más insana, el noise abrupto y las field recordings más escabrosas. Su primer trabajo se publicó en RIR. Y sus obsesiones estéticas son la confusión, la ira, el mundo marginal, y todas las contradicciones de esta sociedad bastarda. Sus máximas influencias son Whitehouse, Karkowski, Crass, Merzbow, Esplendor Geométrico, y el universo personal de David Lynch. Sus grabaciones son complicados collages de bajas frecuencias, ruido, field recording extremo, y mucha dosis de estética-actitud DIY. ¿El nuevo Crass del noise? Mary X es la puerta de entrada a un mundo catatónico y abrasivo

    Of Darkness – Tribute to Krzysztof Penderecki – Passio et mors Domini nostri Jesu Christi secundum Lucam
    Label: The Lament Congregation – The Lament Congregation
    Format: Cassette, Album
    Country: Spain
    Released: 01 Jan 2015
    Style: Funeral Death Music

    SOLD OUT

    The new work Of Darkness continues its constant search process, this time making visible the negation of art through the combination of various forms of musical expression. Using this as a contrast between the magnificent Gospel according to Luke by Krzysztof Penderecki and the canonical forms of musical language, this new work explores the fundamental mystery of the death and resurrection of Jesus and subverts the aesthetic and expressive values of the tradition. Moreover, the alchemical crucible that is Of Darkness is also used this time to distill the essence of the Adventus Scorpiace Gnostics, the work of Tertullian against the siren calls of Gnosticism.

    Deleyaman – Fourth, Part One

    diciembre 18, 2015

    Deleyaman – Fourth, Part One
    Label: Equilibrium Music – EQM026
    Format: CD, Album, Digipak
    Country: Portugal
    Released: 2009
    Genre: Rock, Folk, World, & Country
    Style: Modern Classical, Darkwave, Ethereal, Folk, Ambient

    DELEYAMAN translate a sense of timeless spirituality into a contemporary and universal language. Hardly classifiable into a single genre, “Fourth, Part One” combines Darkwave with ethnic and ethereal elements.

    Following the release of the album “3”, in 2006, over 25 titles were written and composed by DELEYAMAN. 11 of these compositions, entirely recorded, mixed and mastered in the band’s studio in Normandy, France, were presented as “Fourth, Part One”. The remaining material is set to appear later as “Fourth, Part Two”, a complimentary yet contrasting sister-release which followed in early 2011.

    The overall mood of this album is different from their prior releases, yet the sincerity with which they continue to explore their art is a constant in DELEYAMAN’s work. Inspiration for the lyrics comes partially from the works of American poets E.A. Robinson, A. Hecht, R.W. Emerson, E.A. Poe, H. Crane and T. Stickney, but also from the Lebanese mystic poet Khalil Gibran. Most of the titles are sung in English, except for two tracks sung in Armenian and the track “Jardin”, sung in French, the words taken from the poem “Nous n’irons plus au bois”, by T. de Banville. The use of several languages by Beatrice Valantin and Aret Madilian, the two vocalists, has always been a distinct characteristic of the band, whose members all come from different backgrounds.

    DELEYAMAN’s style, which to this day remains difficult to classify into a single genre, is further defined by the inclusion of the duduk, an Armenian wind instrument. More than simply adding an ethnic reference to their compositions, the duduk grants them a unique tone, emphasizing the ethereal and exotic qualities that allow the album to reach beyond the darker specter of alternative music from which the band originally derived. Through their art, DELEYAMAN translate a sense of timeless spirituality into a contemporary and universal language, carrying the listener into a mesmerizing world which still sounds comfortably familiar and close at heart. “Fourth, Part One” is presented in Digipak format, accompanied by a 32-page booklet.
