This album was produced prior to “…entry to a defiled reverie…” [wh166], in 2010.

“No-xygen is dark/ambient project from Greece which started in 2007 by Manos F. and Thanos M. The first release “towards the sun” was recorded in 2008 and it was a sample of space/ambient music. After more experimentations the music changed to something new, dark and eerie. In 2010 No-xygen released the second release entitled “u-235″ a more dark ambient/industrial album. This one led the project to release in 2011 the third album so far “…entry to a defiled reverie…” which is also the landmark of no-xygen’s sound and of the direction we follow so far.”

As explained by the artist:
“Now it is a little about itself and about the given two-hour material. Was born and live in the city of Minsk which is capital of last dictatorial state of Europe (at present) @ Belarus. To me 34 years. It is dissolved. There is a daughter who is called by Nastya, and its voice is on ATTALLA2. There is a girlfriend with whom I want to connect all remained life. Her name is Nadya – and is present its image on a cover to music. ATTALLA2 – very personal intimate (for me) work. In it I tell about myself, by means of the primitive computer and analog old Soviet synthesizers. I haven’t dared to divide all sounding into separate parts as it is often accepted because then integrity of my history and the concept put in music would be broken. I can only advise – to perceive the given work as film viewing … a film about me, my life and my love.. Thanks for attention)))” — Pavel [mikra]

wh152 The Musk-rat Cult – The Last Mark of the Upcoming End

C.P. McDill — Tue, 11 Jan 2011 04:38:14 +0000

These abstract dark ambient works by the Musk-rat Cult approach sound from a painterly perspective.

When asked to describe this album, here’s what the artist said:
“It’s hard to write something about this album, the idea was to create music that’s like an abstract painting – everyone can hear something different in it. I’m a painter, so I’m always surprised with what other people can see while looking at my paintings. Sometimes they see it as something completely different from what I thought while creating them. I wanted this album to be as abstract as possible and I think it works. There were a lot of different oppinions about it, someone told me, that it sounds like a soundtrack to David Lynch’s movies (which may be true, I’m a big fan of those), someone else said it’s more like a musical way of describing mental disorder or a psychedelic trip.
While recording this album I used a lot of strange noises, some of them are animal sounds with some effects used on them, others are radio noises. I even used a noise that my radio started making during an aurora in Iceland. I don’t think anyone else have ever used this sounds to create music.

…TLMOTUE is the 4th album by this project. First years of creating music as TMC (2005-2007) was just experimenting with different sounds and noises. There were a lot of demos, I put the best tracks together and that’s how the first official (at least for me, it was never released) record of TMC was created. It’s a 10-track EP called “Mechanical Bananas, Rubber Spoons and Jelly Mutants from Outer Space”. I think the title tells a lot about how it sounds, it’s like a strange, psycho child of Monty Python and Merzbow.

Between 2008 and 2009 I used to play in many different bands, I needed something different, something made only by myself. That’s when I thought about creating something as The Musk-rat Cult again. Before I used to think about it as something not really serious, but at that moment I thought that I can make it something more than just a way to kill some time. I started creating new music, that was still very noisy, but it became darker. That’s how the second EP called “Enema” was created.

After “Enema” I felt that the idea for this project in that shape is over. That’s why just after recording “Enema” I started working on the first “real” album as TMC. The name of it was supposed to be “Hidden Faces and Surreal Voices”, but finally I changed it to “Mutatis Mutandis (Hidden Faces and Surreal Voices)” Again the title tells it all – mutatis mutandis which means “the necessary changes having been made” is a perfect way to describe the way I felt while creating this music. It is probably the first record by TMC where I haven’t used only noises and different sounds, but I combined them with more traditional sounds and real instruments.”

Track List:
01 Lead Your Plough Through the Bones of the Dead [10:00]
02 The Monster [03:13]
03 The cry of all things that are going to die [12:32]
