Aural Hypnox came into being in the end of 2003 and at the moment concentrates only on the output of the members of the Helixes collective. Expanding out to support other interesting acts has been on the cards several times, but so far these groups (Aeoga, Aural Holograms, Arktau Eos, Halo Manash and Zoät-Aon) have been more than creative enough, demanding all the time and resources available.
We aim to provide all the Helixes collective members the exact milieu and framework which us, the label and the artists, deem fit at a given time.
Moreover, with all productions we strive for an all-encompassing view, which for its part attempts to bring forth the inmost vision and Will of the related artists or groups and thereby f.ex. preserve waning cultural characteristics and dimensions. It is our firm belief that Aural Hypnox releases are important and special because they offer stimulating and challenging views – an endless pilgrimage to the soulside – making real and total experiences possible.
The mark of handicraft will be a constant feature of all Aural Hypnox releases as far into the future as can be foreseen, upholding as it does certain aesthetic values everybody involved share. Combining arts and crafts in the publication process is extremely motivating, requiring constant learning and a great deal of good old fashioned hard work.
It should be noted that in greater perspective, only a few steps have been taken into this direction so far; it requires attention as much as any other matter of creativity. Everything starting with the choice of packaging materials should ideally reflect the purity of the original intent. We improve release by release, taking care they do not compromise the identity of the label and the Helixes collective.
I feel many beings within me,
Anti Ittna H. / founder of Aural Hypnox

Vetvei, V06, 2009, Ltd.181, CD-R, December.09
The sixth Vetvei release presents trip "Through Darkness" of the Arkhangelsk project Ogni Videniy. The album was recorded in 2007 and was published by the author in some copies of hand-made limited edition. Ogni Videniy (Fires of Images, from Russian) is evolutionary continuation of Industrial Noise project Control Fires (2002) which in turn originates in close dialogue with the project Six Dead Bulgarians, at that time under the direction of Alexey Chulkov (R.I.P).
The structure changes, to Industrial Noise basis of Control Fires in 2007 the pure Spirit concept is added, the project gets rituality in the activity, therefore it is transformed to Ogni Videniy, constantly taking part in record and performances Six Dead Bulgarians and to this day. During existence of Ogni Videniy were some collaborations and concetrs with Hladna, Lunar Abyss Deus Organum, etc.
Visions Of the Source, Keepers of Fires, Clearing the Wind... This album represents six cloths-trips in Internal Space through coast of northern seas and conversations with birds and stones, through footpaths of playful streams and the fallen asleep Spirits of wood. The purpose of participants is studying of construction of light, a sound, an image, the qualities of psychedelic experiences directed on strengthening. Ogni Videniy represent natural shamanic, ecstatic Ritual Ambient using many authentic acoustic instruments, electronic tools and field recordings.
Release is presented in six-panel fullcolour envelope designed by Vresnit.
Second excursion of this project into the territory of Soviet past, the release of the materials recorded in summer 2008. The project line-up consists of SGI (Vresnit / Vetvei) and one of the members of Moscow-Yaroslavl trio Night Shift. 6 noise canvases dedicated to the visions of outer darkness seen through the old radio receivers and black and white photographs. To the inseparability of the dark Cosmos and bright future in the unsaid doctrines of Soviet mysticism. Flying and diving into the lost time, search for foothold, responsibility before the communist party and the people, coldness of supervisor's look and his lofty voices. In comparison to the previous release "Voz.Dukh" put out by Kerpg, this album is less dusty, it's sometimes condenses to industrial noise traditional for St. Petersburg noise wave, and sometimes disperses to manifold nuances of technogenic ambient. Fat raw sound, lots of samples and archive recordings, voices, radionoises, guitar, synths and Soviet vinyl. The last steel from cooled Vagranok. Author's artwork: full-colour photographs in typical SGI style and a signal sleeve.
The new Testphasen negativ album "Hostia" is finally available worldwide. You like dark ambient with deep and rich atmosfear? You will love this album..trust us!

Vetvei label presented its first CD release, a collaboration of two congenial projects dedicated to the Symbols of Creative Roration. A retrospective journey by the bird through smells of melting herb songs and contemplations of the mysteries of Life. They are flowed away by Water, from the Ice to the boundless lakes dancing in mosses. Following to the Forge of Earth, walking the dense forests, winds and marshes, meeting the Heart Guardians. All the cycles of nature follow each other, Fire goes to Water and Earth goes to Heaven. Cosmos swaddle the birds flying toward dawn. All invocations in the name of Life. Many praising voices of people and animals merged into a rhythm that glorify the Natural Order, eternal and endless. Field recorgings, woodwinds, strings, percussions and drums, voices, tape noises and electronics was used in this work.They're all merged into a single timeless canvas. Spirit of every living thing awakening runs through it. An atmosphere of Ritual crossed with cosmic primordial Drone Ambient. One of the important parts of this release is design - 7"EP 6-panel cardboard envelope covered with the signs of Vetvei. Standing in awe of Majesty and experience of true Beauty. Tradition, vibrations for a New Cycle.
