Hello all,
Some of you may know my project "Phaenon" and album "Submerged".
You may even be interested in its follow-up album "His Master's Voice", which was just released on Malignant Records.
Please find some details below.
Regards,
Szymon
Malignant Records presents:
Phaenon "His Master's Voice"
Tracklisting:
1.His Master?s Voice - part 1 - Neutrino Radiation 22:34
2.Dark Energy - Silentium Universi 12:57
3.Soul Virus - Interstellar Semantics 13:34
4.His Master?s Voice - part 2 - Ignoramus 24:11
Release date: June 25th, 2010
Press release notes:
After the well received debut Submerged, Phaenon follows things up with an even deeper immersion into a world of bleak, isolationist sounds. Whereas Submerged was one long and infinitely expansive drone piece, His Master?s Voice is broken up into four separate, but flowing tracks of sprawling and spacious ambient drift, laced with interstellar disturbances, probing, alien tones and icy shards of celestial debris?a whirling specter of darkness and void-icy space, thematically based upon the 1968 novel of the same name by Stanislaw Lem, which is centered around the efforts by scientists to decode, translate and understand a series of extraterrestrial transmissions. As a whole, His Master?s Voice represents a logical progression in Phaenon?s sound and is the ultimate in headphone listening.

The first review is in:
It's from Vital Weekly (#740)

One track was also included on its podcast:

PHAENON - HIS MASTER'S VOICE (CD by Malignant Records)
Szymon Tankiewicz, also known as Phaenon, we heard for the first time on the compilation
'Message From A Subatomic World' (see Vital Weekly 643) and 'His Master's Voice' is his second release. Its on Malignant Records, which means that it is good quality ambient music, section Isolationist, very dark. The album is inspired by a book by Stanislaw Lem, 'which is centered around the efforts by scientists to decode, translate and understand a series of extraterrestrial transmissions'. Does this mean that Phaenon uses sounds from outer space? Or perhaps that at the very core of the music we find voice material? Its hard to say, and it probably doesn't matter. Its the music that counts. There is, as usual with this kind of music, a great deal of reverb on whatever the sound sources may be. I am known to be not the biggest lover of such large reverb treatments, but at the same time I understand that its necessary for this kind of music. It suggest space. That's it. And what a large, neh enormous space it is, infinite even, like space itself. While dark clouds pour out an immense summer rain, Phaenon plays the perfect soundtrack for such a thunderous end of the day. Maybe with four of those lengthy excursions are a bit long - who wants dark clouds and massive rain for this long - it is, in its genre, a great album.
Four dark ambient Isolationist pieces, no doubt suitable to read that book by Lem. (FdW)

Here is another review, this time in German.
Perfect for you guys.

From what I could understand, the reviewer likes my album and recommends it:
"CD in den Schacht, F??e hoch & dem Kopfkino freien Lauf lassen!". |
