Psychedelic Drone Experimental Music!



One long-form (hour long) piece, and a couple of reposts of dark ambient material from the past couple of months. The hour long piece is combination of drone, psychedelic clean jazz guitar, and treated vocals. The title is my interpretation of what the overall resulting effect sounds like.....

Arha Debut Drone Doom!

Sorry about the cut-out at the end. Paste it into Audacity, and you can remix it into a proper eternal drone.... I've also included a couple of older tracks that are dark ambient droners.

Elementals


I recently finished reading August Derleth's Cthulu Mythos. This inspired me to create a suite of tracks based on the four essential elements: Earth, Air, Water, and Fire. The pieces are dark ambient, ritual, Kraut-influenced rhythmic psychedelic noise.

Tobe Hooper, The Man, The Myth, The Legend


The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is really, truly, one of the best films ever made. It captures the true essence of a nightmare. Come on, you've all had this scenario play out in your unconscious mind: trapped in an unfamiliar location, stalked by a relentless, unreasonable force set on ending your terrestrial existence with a powertool. Plus, there is social commentary on a par with George Romero's original Night of the Living Dead: family run slaughterhouses and ranchers are run out by cut-rate meat packers and the factory-food machine! All Amebix fans and vegan hardcore punx should run right out and watch this film! Plus, it's a pretty accurate depiction of the Wisconsin-based serial killer Ed Gein's sartorial and decorative sensibility, if nothing else! In all seriousness, though, the pacing, editing, camerawork, et al is fantanstic, and Tobe Hooper's original score is the kind of authentic Industrial time-lag accumulator type shit that TG would produce two years down the line. What I have done here is to gild the lily, so to speak: I remixed and grabbed pieces of the O.S.T, and created new dark-ambient pieces from them. Please watch the original film! It'll scare the hell out of you, and make you think.

Secession


I was re-reading an old issue of the Wire this morning, and I was struck by the concept , put forward by the Yellow Swans, of psychic secession. It reminded me a bit of the T.A.Z concept, and I thought-why not appropriate it for a piece which references Eno and Corrupted, while doing what Ambient music is supposed to do- alter one's perception of time

Call Me Burroughs Mixes



I remixed/repurposed three more tracks from William S. Burroughs "Call Me Burroughs" album from 1968. The idea was to bring in Burroughs/Gysin's idea of the cut-up, or third mind to the composition process. No Bueno is more of a traditional dub style, while the other two, Fish Poison Con and Croaker's Conference fit into a post-industrial/dark ambient style. I had a fourth mix, based on Inflexible Authority, going, but Audacity crashed on me, and that was my signal that I was done for the day!
