Nommo Ogo :: Endless Dream (Record Label Records)

A surge of undercurrents in the form of pseudo-industrial transformations keeps Nommo Ogo ahead of the pack as these subliminal displays of percussive prowess and tumultuous electronic patterns further embed their definitive sound sculptures.

Nommo Ogo ‘Endless Dream’

[Release page] Nommo Ogo has had a relatively extensive history of productions going back to 1996 and releasing content since 2000. Emerging from the Alaskan landscape as a band that has been tagged as “psychedelic / noise,” they’ve continued to push invisible boundaries of low-rumbling frequencies and have gained quite a reputation for their sonic rites outdoor performances. These quasi-ritualistic experiences have been hailed as tribal and emmersive sound-escapes for mind and body. Fast forward to present day, and you’ll see the Nommo Ogo name-tag splattered throughout Record Label Records‘ operations as well as Katabatik‘s esoteric electronic music conglomerate—all based in Oakland, California.

Endless Dream collects six multidimensional extracts ranging from four to over twelve minutes per piece. Extending the classic warmth of buzzing synthesizers, analog machinery and organic electronics, Nommo Ogo continue to emanate a thorough voyage of underground tectonic shifting. A well-balanced post-gothic / industrial slant is administered with just the right amount of vocalized—Skinny Puppy tinged—projections. Slithering in dark corridors and lit up by hypnotizing rhythms, this album gradually envelops the senses with its 90s-era slow moving industrialized pulse and gravitational pull. Taken as a sum of its parts, Endless Dream is an apt title as it takes both the unconscious and conscious mind to places less-traveled in an effort to open the channels to new worlds. A surge of undercurrents in the form of pseudo-industrial transformations keeps Nommo Ogo ahead of the pack as these subliminal displays of percussive prowess and tumultuous electronic patterns further embed their definitive sound sculptures.

Endless Dream is available on Record Label Records. [Release page]
