Boundless Oblivion.
A new Roto Visage remix appears on Inner Vision Laboratory / Hoarfrost bonus CD. Both Hoarfrost and Inner Vision Laboratory are young projects, but it would be an understatement to call them ‘newcomers.’ They both have already released debut albums alongside numerous split releases, collaborations, web extended plays and compilation tracks. Thanks to their work, they have gathered a substantial following among experimental music listeners. It was just a question of time when the men behind the projects would collaborate on a release. The result is ‘Decline’ – a tale of descending into the pits of madness in 8 parts. Inspired by two poems, ‘Madman’ and ‘Modern Icarus,’ takes you on a journey into the realms of dark thoughts. With such a clear concept, it’s no wonder that the music is cinematic, thus slowly building images in the listener’s head. Face the stillness, but remember: something is lingering in the corner. For fans of cinematic ambient like Land, Moljebka Pvlse, Inade, Lambwool, Tho-So-Aa.
Those who ordered the album before the release received the limited edition version including a bonus disc containing 6 unreleased tracks (one collaboration, 2 tracks recorded separately by each project and 3 remixes, one of which is by Roto Visage), video trailer and wallpaper.
Released on: Zoharum Records
The Serpents That Lick The Dust.
A Roto Visage remix appears on the bonus disc for The Angels of Prostitution. Worms of the Earth, the latest discovery of degenerate industrial label bugs crawling out of people, plants itself firmly in the sparse forest of the new generation of industrial-noise music; merging the organic with the technological, and the orthodox with the profane to create epic and mysterious compositions that stimulate the listener both in body as well as in mind. The angels of prostitution is an ancient hulking mechanical apparatus gone haywire with demonic fervor.. sounds buried deep within the earth in time immemorial.. forbidden sounds of latent human evil that had been erased from our collective memory.. until now. inscribed with the language of the ancients, it demolishes any in its cursed path, leaving only sorrow in its wake.
It features condemning text vocalized by wordcore artist it-clings along with five interpretations by prominent up-and-coming industrial acts who were cursed with the task of remixing these forbidden works: dead man’s hill, dym, embodi, to mega therion, and vicious alliance.
The first 50 copies come with “the whores of carcosa” bonus disc containing 4 previously unreleased tracks showcasing the dark esoteric ambient side of worms of the earth and 5 additional remixes by autovoice, ghosts in the clocktower, re: dux tion, roto visage, and vicious alliance.
Released on: Bugs Crawling Out Of People.
“Where the Mandrakes Grow” is conceptualized around autoerotic asphyxiation, forming an abstract narrative into a singular autoerotic experience. A singular moment in flux within the body. The sound compositions consist of consciousness cut ups – flashes of memory and anomalies of the moment interweaving. Dark drone and experimental ambience. Mastered by the legendary Robert Rich. Beautiful 6-panal digi-CD designed by Anastasia Sarandou limited to 1,000 copies. Truly a great work of Dark Ambience. 64 minutes.
Released on: Autumn Wind Productions.

her final breath.
From the label: Time has come for a fresh collaborative album, released by No Angels Prod. and Beast Of Prey. We would like to present a unique opus, which appears as a co-operation of Inner Vision Laboratory (Poland) and Roto Visage (USA) projects, symbolically entitled “Cinema Stain”. Here, the listener is forced to wale in pathological and “impure” visualizations of human pain, fears and suffering, which are surprisingly seducing with subtle beauty. Some of the soundforms are painted heavily with a brush of rhythm while others flow like the spools of film spinning through a mechanical projector. The aim of both of the composers was to write an original soundtrack to a non-existent horror film – the result is excellent, and by taking vocal samples from other movies, they created also an auditory record of tension and melancholic darkness. For layout of this release, we used modified photographs from the very talented photographer – Karolina Kosowicz.
Packaging is non-typical: professionally printed and professionally duplicated CDR with additional graphical insert are placed in a plastic box (slim dvd box type). Inserts and covers are professionally printed on gloss paper. Edition is limited to 200 hand numbered copies.
Released on: No Angels Prod. & Beast of Prey.

Memories for your consumption.
Well it’s official. I am absolutely terrible at promoting myself and others. Here’s a nice free compilation that was released whilst I was in the midst of traveling. I’m sure some of my listeners were able to catch its release despite my minimal efforts to get the word out. Nonetheless, if you don’t have this compilation, you should.
From the label: To celebrate one year of Twilight Luggage, and wrap it up in a seasonably fitting package we are now releasing our first compilation album, “Winter Solstice”. 9 artists from this years releases, and 3 gifted composers we hope to work more with shortly, contributed exclusive tracks to what ended up as a quite varied and highly engaging album of experimental wonderfulness!
And the best thing about it: It’s totally free! Happy Winter Solstice!

Psychic surgery.
Brothers, Roto Visage and Jugular Notch come together in a collaboration amounting to five atmospheric tracks of epic length to accompany one’s inner dialog. As an incredibly personal endeavor for both artists, “Everything Is Brown” captures and documents moments in time and every area of the psyche, from birth and childhood to death.
“Everything is Brown” spawns from the entanglement of many sources, including field recordings in unsettling environments, home-made analog synthesizers, virtual synthesizers, vocal sampling, unconventional experimentation with vinyl records, improvisation, and an overall mental regurgitation of sound and emotion.
