Superb collaborative effort between Irish ambient master and WRWTFWWs favorite Gareth Quinn Redmond (Laistigh den Ghleo, Umcheol, Ar Ais Arís) and Polish producer, multi-instrumentalist and sound engineer Albert Karch. Experimental sessions inspired by Mark Hollis and Satoshi Ashikawa featuring piano, drums, synthesizers, and strings. For fans of ambient, minimalism, environmental music, Talk Talk, and Still Way (Wave Notation 2).
WRWTFWW Records is wonderfully proud to announce the long anticipated official reissue of Chrysalide (1978), the sole album from French multi-instrumentalist and enigmatic genius Michel Moulinié. The krautrock/ambient/minimalism paragon is available digitally for the first time ever. Originally released in 1978 on Ange and Jean-Claude Pognants mythical prog rock label Crypto, Chrysalide is a fusion of minimalist meditations, cosmic soundscapes, and ambient with a human warmth, carried by a profoundly beautiful and unique use of twelve-string guitar, bass, and violin. Ideal for an introspective listening experience, the hypnotic Kosmische Musik of Michel Moulinié belongs to the same psychedelic family as Manuel Göttschings Inventions For Electric Guitar, Mike Oldfields Tubular Bells, early Tangerine Dream, and Steve Hillages innovative guitar mastery. WRWTFWW listeners might also be reminded of the labels seminal French release, Dominique Guiots LUnivers de la Mer, which makes a great spiritual pairing with Chrysalide. Escape into the vast universe inside yourself : On entre à pas feutrés Dans une musique rayonnante Aux variétés chatoyantes Embrasement consécutif Dun univers cristallin Perlé de notes transparentes Un écho céleste emplit la vastitude De fines gouttelettes de sons fluides Se transforment en cascades multiples Baignant le microcosme Révélant la grande paix divine
WRWTFWW Records is happy to further its collaboration with Japanese electronic/ambient group Interior by releasing their never-heard-before soundtrack for environmental artist NILS-UDOs 1987 Laserdisc Sculpture of Time (Apocalypse). The intriguing sound design/kanky? ongaku/new age album is available for the first time ever. In 1987, Intermission published a Japan-only Laserdisc showcasing one hour of works created by renowned German environmental artist NILS-UDO. To accompany the visuals, they commissioned electronic music group Interior, fresh off their Haroumi Hosono-produced self-titled debut (also available on WRWTFWW Records) and their Windham Hill Records-released sophomore album Design. For the first time ever, the soundtrack is now available in full HD glory, demonstrating Daisuke Hinata, Eiki Nonaka, Mitsuru Sawamura, and Tsukasa Bettos precise, subtle, and spellbinding approach to ambient sound design. Calming nature sounds, ritualistic synths, meditative atmospheres, and eruptive forays into darker territories mesh superbly in a 4-part soundscape that flirts with oeuvres such Midori Takadas Through The Looking Glass and Hiroshi Yoshimuras Green, making Sculpture of Time one of one of the best kept secrets of kanky? ongaku - a must have for mystery hunters and levitating music lovers. Sculpture of Time (Apocalypse) follows WRWTWWs reissue of Interiors debut album and precedes the upcoming release of Tarzanland, band member Daisuke Hinatas pitch perfect solo from 1989.
