A sonic compass for dark ambient, damaged electronics, ethereal synthesis, and otherworldly atmospheres to the nth degree.
A sonic compass for dark ambient, damaged electronics
The non-profit micro-label, Adventurous Music, was born 10 years ago courtesy of a sound installment at the Museum Of Applied Arts in Leipzig, Germany. They also curated an audio-visual event at the ASA Museum a couple years later including performances by Signalstoerung, Kangding Ray, Geso, Francis Theberge, MAD, Ben Lukas Boysen and Architect. The rest, as the label puts it, is history.
The story continues to unfold and their 10th Anniversary compilation invites friends and collaborators to celebrate and unearth additional underground ambient treasure troves from the likes of Hendekagon & Matti, Yann Novak, INYAN, Coppice Halifax, Kid Kosmoe, Signalstoerung, Jóhann Eiriksson, Defaults, Froid, Nyppy, Conure, Veronica Moser, Θ, Jo Montgomerie, Thedi, C-Drìk, Gallery Six, Neglect, Krummhörens Kuhlen, Elias Zorn, Fail, and 16Pad Noise Terrorist.
A sonic compass for dark ambient, damaged electronics, ethereal synthesis, and otherworldly atmospheres to the nth degree, Adventurous Music inhabits the outer spectrum, pulling together a vast and luminous kaleidoscope of musicians shifting into their second decade. A uniquely powerful collection maneuvering through treacherous ambient/noise corridors, surreal pandemonium, and opaque industrial layers. All proceeds from this release are donated to Amnesty International for supporting political prisoners and human rights activists.
AM 10th Anniversary is available on Adventurous Music. [Bandcamp]
