Sounds Like
"Kind of a sound track to lose your mind to"
The Lung Conollon Crash Culture
"Very atmospheric sound, like a thick fog in the cold unforgiving open fields. Someplace, in the midst of it, her and i meet again. She clears the dense saturation from the air with her warmth, then...she kills me...again, but i digress..."
The Long Strange Dream
"Truly unique sound. Some of it's abstract qualities make me think of Badalamenti's soundscapes for the films of David Lynch. I am fascinated by the style and layered texture."
Norte Grotesque
"Makes me think of Lovecraftian imagery."
Alexander Korycki
"This is witch music, and you are going to Hell for it." - personal favourite

I lingered around them, under that benign sky; watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells; listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass; and wondered how anyone could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth.
There is something deeply satisfying to me about the act of unsettling another lifeform from complacency and complete disregard for better realities. There is no point where one category ends and another begins. This is our way of carving our own niche into a 'scene' that has died and begun to smell something fierce. The word "genre", for all it is worth, should have never existed. Music and art should be heartfelt, no matter where that heart may be, true, dark, sardonic, sensual, and sexual. There is still something left of what the seventies, eighties, and nineties brought us served on a well-worn, crusted dinner plate. And there are still those left that believe that. Join us.
In truth, when it comes to sound, I live more for scoring and doing soundwork on films more than anything else. Are you a director / film maker? I want to work on your next film with you. My 'genre' of preference pertains to Horror, Suspense, and so on, but if I enjoy the writing and aesthetic aspect enough, I will work with just about anything.

ahhhhh he leaks such great relief into my being, i love spending entire days in silence only listening to his works...hours and hours of his voice. in his newest album he had buck 65 do some beats and i know he did other magic things with others, i think Sleep was featured in a song...Sole is wonderful, he has such a heavy voice that is very easy to spot.
magicmagicmagiiccccccc! cats eat your soul while you sleep. they sit on your chest with their warm soft bodies and hover their open mouths over your own open mouth...sipping sipping sipping your warmth. cutey cats.

Well, most of it is a haze now, but gtom what I remember, we were living/squatting in an old house in some dark woods with a number of artists. There was a room filled with cellos and various string instruments. We were walking along a moonlight dirt road to a port that would take up to America (we must have been in Europe). I was in a hurry to leave, but you seemed hesitant and somehow discovered I had Cherokee blood due to my personality traits. You spoke with a thick Western European accent
Silas, i've never met you in real life but i've had two nights in a row that you were in my dreams..
i woke this morning from a dream that i was hitchhiking through new england with a friend and you had just moved there and we met up with you and you were running a mansonesque family ranch and we joined your family and played so much music and it ruled.
the night before i had this dream that you and i happened to attend this house party in a strange and haunted swamp, and something terrible happened and all sorts of monsters were lurking and eating people and multiplying wildly. you and i and a few strangers boarded up in a house, gathered knives, rope, and various makeshift armors from the kitchen and garage of this house and began slaying the demons rushing the doorways to protect the ladies.. we slayed for hours into the night but the flood of creatures wouldn't let up - in my final hour of fight i was in endless battle with a vagina dentata that had regenerative tenticles, my kitchen knives could not cut through them fast enough and i was slowly overtaken and i woke up terrified
i think you survived, but i was so deeply in combat that i lost track of your whereabouts and was worried. it was epic. in my last moments i remember thinking that if you did survive the night, you would have an incredible campfire story to tell
hope all is well with you, i just got your tape from feltcat - it looks awesome i cant wait to listen to it.
My new 3 album box set ODESSA delves into the disgusting involvement the United States government had in hiding Nazi war criminals that were deemed, "intelligence assets", to be used against the Russians. ODESSA also examines the enthusiastic role the Franciscan Order, Argentinian and Chilean Governments, and Arab leaders who hated the Jews played in hiding and finding new homes for former fascists. It seems many nations had a reason to keep these monsters from being captured, and this is my attempt to expose the establishment of a Fourth Reich in South America that still exists to this day.

this sounds excellent. there is nothing else i really need to add, but you should know that i am recording a second album. it will be called Cadence II: Entmoot, if that gives you any idea of what it will sound like.
