Description

Contemporary and historical Porest recordings channelled from behind the somnambulistic event horizon. The now sound… The bleak oblique. The minimal and the maximal. Filmic chamber drones, meditative radio massage and forged spiritual violence bury pop ephemera into the swirling murk of de facto instrumental nihilism and orchestral context-free drama.

Side A: A harmful journey into sickness and despair. You get sick and die.

Side B: You are healed. You stand erect and live forever.

Layered field and radio recordings back electro-acoustic experiments via electric saz, strings, balypso, reeds & synths. Big drones, small ensembles and mood-anthems recorded by Porest and friends between 1995 and 2020 in West Oakland, Germany, Sumatra, Syria, Hanoi and London.
