Experimental Electronic Music
With Lifeless Ground, Sjellos plunges listeners back into the dark, mechanical abyss introduced on his last album Transmission Lost (2013), intensifying the grim sense of desolation and uncertainty. Each attempt to move brings flashes of forgotten memories, or fractured images of a past life.
Atrementia was composed exclusively with circuit bent hardware, home-made oscillators, pedals and electric guitar fed through analog processing. Your memories are dressed in black.

The signals swerve, trapped forever between electronic space ambient and interplanetary sci-fi. The final chapter tells the tale, but the various preceding tracks of galactic movie magic theme soundtracks also are each and all awesome.
