Unearthed – Week 48
With the exam period approaching, I unfortunately have less time to cover new releases. Still, you can expect a few short reviews, and I’m also working on some bigger things — the first interviews are coming to Hypogeum! The debut one will be with Entrópia Architektúra, a Hungarian band whose genre-defying rock I can’t help but think of as ritual. If for no other reason, just so I can include them here…
But now, let’s get back to our usual dark ambient releases.
New releases
Nihil Impvlse crafts bleak, isolationist soundscapes from industrial noise and deep drones on his new album The Great Filter. The resulting post-apocalyptic atmosphere offers a powerful reinterpretation of both industrial and dark ambient music.
Substak’s EP Natura Non Constristatur is filled with low, distorted drones and eerie crackles — a slow-burning soundtrack for long winter nights.
Another Parts of the Comet is a new EP from Hungarian artist Star Shaped Chimney. It’s a strange and original mixture of dark ambient atmospheres, space ambient soundscapes, spoken world samples and pulsating drones.
Mixtapes & Playlists
