<=> A kaleidoscope of textured, darkish industrial, space, and field recordings worthy of exploration! The more replays, the more harmonious this album(s) becomes.
(The same can be said about Opus Unending. Also the mastering by Cruel Sound Works
for both is nicely done! Uncompressed files are at 16bit)
Also look for Aegri Somnia on CryoChamber and Efil on Kalpamantra

about

Croatian artist Jurica Santek (Nox, Aegri Somnia, Efil) returns to our Winter-Light label with his second full length album 'Abyssal Codex'.

'Abyssal Codex' follows in the footsteps of his previous 'Opus Unending' album, released via our Winter-Light label. This is traditional dark ambient, with the focus still aimed on low, sub tones, edged with industrial and horror recordings. The music is still downtune and lo-fi, interspersed with harsh sounds and natural elements.

'The main focus is on dark, isolationist soundscapes but also as music without distraction, that can be used as a background meditative for various purposes. The aim is to reach a fluid dark atmosphere that is pleasant and meditational to listen to, but that is also having dark and unnerving moments.'

The album was recorded between 2021/2022.

Field recordings were taken from Krapina/Opatija/Čakovec, Croatia.

The overall feel here is hushed, almost reverential, and very dark. Listening, one almost hears the echoes of rituals that were once performed for these ancient deities in caves thick with incense, or atop lofty mountain ledges razored by freezing winds, upon altars dripping with fluids best left unnamed.

Wow. Now & then a "dark ambient" album comes by that instantly captures your imagination totally. For example: Lustmord's Black Stars, Time Machines' eponymous album, and this. There's something literally magical about this, when I listen to it, I feel like I've been placed under some kind of spell, it grabs & holds you from start to end. Maybe it's something about the melancholic, mysterious chordal modes, maybe how the music flows over you & envelopes you in its dark, warm embrace. Spooky! Daniel Ruben

In the music of Paul Jordan, digitally manipulated field recordings become striking electronic songs that feel eerie and surreal. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 7, 2020
