Well produced and voluntary absorbing, the sound sculptures of Altered Dimensions explore the confines of our consciousness, the deep vastness and parapsychological paradigms.
Alphaxone is the isolationist ambient project of Iran based sound designer Mehdi Saleh. The project is mostly celebrated for its numerous digital albums released by Kalpamantra, and for its physical releases signed on the highly acclaimed and prolific Cryo Chamber. The musical signature of the project is rather eclectic and transversal, surfing simultaneously on deep space ambient territory and organic soundscapes with occasional compositional schemes borrowed from the dark ambient style.
Well produced and voluntary absorbing, the sound sculptures of Altered Dimensions explore the confines of our consciousness, the deep vastness and parapsychological paradigms. The sonic and synthesized sound environment is fundamentally turned to sustained drones made of bass frequencies, sinuous electronic waves, micro noises and treated field recordings. Very abstract and cinematic deep ambient sound odyssey that will definitely ravish listeners of the spacey-naturalistic ambient atmospherics of Alio Die, as well as the magmatic ambient blackness of Lustmord (notably in more “spectral”-oriented albums such as Dark Places of the Earth or Carbone/Core) and Coph Nia (The Tree of Life and Death). Nothing new here but quite a refreshing and well composed album. Altered Dimensions is largely recommended for insatiable adepts of the subterranean ambient genres.
Altered Dimensions is available on Cryo Chamber.
