Moljebka Pvlse – An Expression Of A Poetry That Was Lost (Zoharum)

Posted by John Lithium on

Label Description: Once again, the Swedish-German project invites their listeners into its musical world, intricately woven from subtle melodies, warm, delicate drone structures, and the sounds of exotic instruments, over which hangs an aura of the extraordinary, shimmering with particles of light, bathed in summer sunlight, evoking fragrances from the farthest corners of the globe. Once again, MOLJEBKA PVLSE recorded the material with a four-member lineup. “An Expression of a Poetry That Was Lost” comprises two longer compositions, where, alongside electronics, we hear live instruments, and darker moments give way to exotic sounds, reflective melodies, and a fleeting aura of mystery. This is the next release showing that this band still has much to say…
The album is available in two formats: CD and LP.

Rapoon & Pas Musique – Knowledge Has No Enemies But The Ignorant (Zoharum)

Posted by John Lithium on

Label Description: “Knowledge Has No Enemies But The Ignorant” is another joint release from the British band RAPOON and the American band PAS MUSIQUE. It’s arguably their best joint effort. It features thirteen longer compositions, totaling over two hours, filled with ambient structures, a psychedelic aura, and numerous improvised fragments. It seems the two gentlemen have found a common language, one based on years of experience in experimental music and revealing their shared roots and inspirations, which can undoubtedly be found on this double-disc album.

Wormwood’s Heart – Synchronous Cycles Of Light (Zoharum)

Posted by John Lithium on

Label Description:

The musicians of the WORMWOOD’S HEART project believe that time is the cyclical immensity of the self, and we are all the light that permeates this process.
“Synchronous Cycles of Light” is a material born from the need to explore sounds and the information they convey, as well as from observing the subtle interrelationships between culture (the human) and nature (the non-human). WORMWOOD’S HEART is inspired by synchronicity – the interaction of many people and events that became part of the creation of this album.
The musicians primarily aimed to highlight the full spectrum of experiences that make up their lives – from harmony and silence to moments of tension and uncertainty.
Driven by respect for the space in which their music is to resonate, they minimize it to its essential elements.
The album is an invitation to a shared experience of the multifaceted nature of life – its beauty, mystery, and contrasts.
The entire album was recorded at the Cierpienie Studio and its surroundings in Smarzyków in the summer of 2025.

WORMWOOD’S HEART – SYNCHRONOUS CYCLES OF LIGHT
Wormwood’s Heart are Piotr Ramlau and Marcel Gawinecki.
Synchronous Cycles of Light are Karolina Karpowicz, Daniel Górny, Marceli Dziurleja, Natalia Kozłowska, Etna, Smarzykowo,
and all the tiny synchronicities that made this album possible to emerge.

For a time, we looked at life — and life looked back at us.
Captured and recorded at Studio Cierpienie and its surroundings in Smarzykowo, in the middle of summer ’24.

Mix & Mastering: Marcel Gawinecki

Label Description:

We are proud to present the unique RAPOON publication “Dream Circle” (In three Phases)”, a special edition of the British artist’s debut album, containing a total of 3 CDs: a remastered version of the debut “Dream Circle”, the sequel “Recurring (Dream Circle)” and a specially prepared version of thinking about this release, the album “Mandala”, which is an extension of the formula contained in previous releases. As in the case of the extended reissues of RAPOON (“Vernal Crossing Revisited” or “The Kirghiz Light”), the musician had a similar idea there, also here, to record new compositions, Robin Storey reached into his archive to extract the tracks and sound banks that he used during those sessions almost 30 years ago, to use them in a completely different way with their help, compose completely new, interesting and coherent musical material. “Mandala” draws listeners into a mystical journey to the Middle East with the same intensity as “Dream Circle” and “Recurring…”. The discs put together in this way close the triptych started at the very beginning of Rapoon’s activity. This unique trilogy was released in a black and gold 8-panel digipack.
In addition, an extended collector’s edition in a wooden box will also be available, containing several bonuses.
