Recent favorites from the broad terrain of dark ambient and drone, arranged as a presentation of and response to "fyrtårnet (parts 1, 2 and 3)", a thematic cluster of tracks from elegi's masterful "sistereis". some of the tracks in this mix are years old, some released within the last month; yet each sounds positively groundbreaking thanks to the incredible vitality of the involved genres.
showing off a wide variety of subsets -- from the crystalline digitalis of pjusk to erik k. skodvin's "acoustic doom", the plodding post-rock drone from nest and thisquietarmy, on into the near edges of noise, field recording and the overwrought academics of sound artist eli keszler -- there is a great deal of depth in this short mix.
the Hidden Sound Annex's contribution is in the intensive overlaying -- there are often three and four tracks playing simultaneously in this mix, with everything having been smudged carefully together to arrive at something more akin to sound design than a mixset.
