Muhmood & Ego Ex Nihil - Fictive Planets

We finished this album in 2008 and finally it will be released on a very decent Russian label that deals purely with doom metal - Solitude Prductions

Collaboration of two experimental Russian projects based on mixture of post-metal doom riffs with dark ambient parts. A long deep space journey around invisible fictive planets is depicted by harsh guitar riffs while minutes of atmospheric soundscapes do not bring any relief just adding to the overall depressive picture of wandering and desperation.

DIY guitar effects



Here are some of my first builds
from left to right:
Meathead DLX > Fuzz Face GE > Meathead

FF is done in Mark Rothko style - he lived and worked the same time with Hendrix and Hendrix liked bright colors, so i thought it wold be right.

i am very happy with the sound of all three of them and ispired to build more, seems to turn from curiousity into passion now! 8)

just a couple of days ago finished Dallas Range Master - a clone of what Toni Iommy used on his first albums in Black Sabbath - it is a very simple treble booster but sounds so great!

will try to put up some samples later...

Talmenka






















This is my first purely field recordings album released by the Portuguese netlabel Green Field Recordings. Talmenka is the name of the river in Altai Region and a village that stands on it. It's been a very inspiring place for me, surrounded by the woods, lakes and two rivers. So here is a bunch of tracks i recorded on my several trips there, i wanted to share a few local frequencies that are more like a sound diary of last summer.
The artwork that goes along with this release are photos of the places where the recordings were done.

hope he won't go too commercial and make more of true creative music.
loads of respect to you, man all the way from the melting Siberia!
