The Implicit Order – Post Ambient Volume One (Wholeness Recordings)

Label Description: There are many doors in the above simple collage I made for the cover. Doors that lead to nowhere and doors that lead you to the unexpected in life. All doors lead here to this examination of my current ambient work. On these recordings I try and mimic my past and distort it at the same time. Not in any negative way, only as examination. I once read there is nothing more frightening than an unopened door so open one and see.

This is a WHOLENESS RECORDINGS release:

The Colour Of Madness – Sundowning (Cruel Nature Recordings)

The Colour of Madness is Jacob Brant, a musician working in the post-ambient field. He has previously released work under his own name, alongside collaborations with other artists. Jacob lives in Margate, where he curates a series of experimental music events under the name Superliminal.

“Sundowning” is an exploration of the electric guitar within the post-ambient and post-noise landscapes. Recorded over a chaotic period in a mixture of studios, living rooms, and late-night liminal spaces across the UK and Europe, “Sundowning” is as much a document of time as it is a musical statement. Some pieces were meticulously crafted, whereas others originated as lo-fi mobile phone recordings of improvised sessions, later transformed through artful processing into post-ambient, electroacoustic compositions. The electric guitar is the primary source material, though it’s often rendered unrecognisable — submerged under textures, stretched into drones or fractured into shadowy melodic fragments. The album also features haunting vocals, field recordings and acoustic instruments, all woven into a layered tapestry of memory and emotion.
