about

"Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate"

Pulled ever downward, carried upon the shoulders of infernal stone, wracked with guilt, stained with the acrid tears of a sagging grey nimbus, we sink. A post inscribed with the name of a king, or a metal edict left spare in the sand - it doesn't matter, and still we sink. Spitting and coughing, cursing the men who sent us here, their animosities still writ large upon the fractured landscape, smoke collapsing lungs, forced to imbibe from this doomed goblet, as we drift further down into the black. There is simply nothing left, only a lurching stream of limbs and jaws, sloth and helpless, sucked below the crust of the burnt Urth, grasping at sodded walls smoothed over by the endless tide of the damned.

Unuopaĵojn

My DEEP EARTH series, comprised of darkroom improvisations recorded without computers, live on analog and digital equipment. Time pulses out of focus. Brian Grainger

Thriambus
by Milieu

Slowly unfurling ambient music, wafting from foggy guitars, orchestral tape loops and a humming vintage organ. Pollock shooting off fireworks for phosphene weather. Brian Grainger

Night's Moisture
by Coppice Halifax

A six-hour ambient tapestry, with subtle dub techno undercurrents. Created for the exact length of time my newborn daughter was finally sleeping through the night at the time. Brian Grainger
