Emerge – Dispense CD (Attenuation Circuit)

Emerge is an ambient drone project running by Sascha Stadlmeier, a super cool guy from Augsburg, Germany. I met him for the first time at the third edition of Zasavlje Noisefest International based in Trbovlje, Slovenia. He’s also running a super productive label called Attenuation Circuit with thousands of really cool releases. Dispense is nearly an hour exploration to the depths of ambient drone sounds. It almost sounds like you’re lost in the depths of the sea without living creatures around you, but you can still hear signals from the distance. Sounds are organic and they are multi-layered, but the listener can hear all of them at the same time without losing a sense of the whole composition. The most interesting thing that captured my attention is how the sounds can be dark and irritant at the moment, but on the other hand, they can put you up in a much more relaxing mood. All in all, it’s a really good release which will satisfy all the lovers of ambient and drone experimentations who are seeking for much more relaxing sounds. You can easily sit back in your easy chair and enjoy in almost an hour of a pure avant-garde orchestra. Highly recommended.
