Dark Stars in the Dazzling Sky pt.5

Compared to the previous instalment this list is even darker and slower. Like being absorbed into a black hole causing time to slow down almost infinitely. But still, with the right amount of attention the music truly becomes alive and numerous details will become visible. To add some spark to the playlist I’ve included Lichens’ stunning slow and distorted psychedelic guitar solo. With Marhaug and Asheim we end the list with one of my favourite releases from the current year. A remarkable collaboration recorded in the Oslo Cathedral with Nils Henrik Asheim on organ and Lasse Marhaug on sine wave oscillators, noise generators and feedback. Noise meets pipe organ drones like never before.

    That’s really cool to hear RoSm. That’s the best that I could wish for, thanks.

    @ 1friend: That’s going to be a tough one but I’m sure one of us will have a try, hopefully sooner than later, haha. Thanks for your suggestion! :-)

The song makes its imprint
in the air, making itself felt,
a felt world. Here, there,
the stunned silence

of knowing I will not remember
what I heard;

futures that will never happen,
a fluidity we cannot achieve
except as a child
creating possibility.

This is the untranslatable song
hidden in the earth.
