Hi

I was wondering if anyone could tell me of any Richard Ramirez/or related albums that are more ambient and less harsh noise?

Something like this? - https://moonmystmusic.bandcamp.com/album/dwellers

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers.

sure
his first release Medusa (1990) is dark ambient
https://richardramirez.bandcamp.com/album/medusa
Remains Left In The Chapel for deathbed tapes is also dark ambient
https://deathbedtapes.bandcamp.com/album/remains-left-in-the-chapel
all Kourei' relesases are dark/drone ambient
https://richardramirez.bandcamp.com/album/thoughtform
Giraffe Detaching A Suitcase is dark ambient project
https://richardramirez.bandcamp.com/album/nurse-declining-in-the-corner
also some of his early solo stuff like Tragic Birth Forming or Trace + Research is what i call "minimal noise" - "normal" noise, but recorded on low volume, which has almost-like-a-HNW textures

Great. Thank you very much. These sound like what I'm looking for.
Looking for a link for the Alchemy release to have a listen. I'm digital only these days. Will keep looking.
Thanks again.

I don't really know of any project that Richard has done that could be considered dark ambient, but there is a really cool track from the Magnified Healing album (T.E.F./Prurient/Richard Ramirez) split CD. Richard Ramirez has this cool collaboration with experimental/dark ambient project called Ze'rØ-sum. Track is called Begin The Revelation and Magnified Healing is a great album too, especially if you've never heard it before, it's worth it for the T.E.F. tracks alone.

I'll try to track that down. Thanks for the suggestion.

Quote from: spiritassembly on December 09, 2023, 03:29:02 AMThis collab between Ramirez' Nuits Rouges and Edward Ka-spel of the Legendary Pink Dots might fit?

It fits nicely and sounds very good. Thank you.

*edit
Just found several other albums from Ramirez as Nuits Rouges that could be described as ambient.
Here are a few if anyone else is interested...

Alas Lust Garden – Dead But Laughing
https://www.discogs.com/release/22882622-Alas-Lust-Garden-Dead-But-Laughing
https://richardramirez.bandcamp.com/album/dead-but-laughing

Thank you. This one sounds really good, especially the second track which sounds like it has a little more variation going on.
Cheers for the tip.

Thank you. This morphs into a little more noise than I was looking for, but its so bloody good that I'm definitely having it anyway. Added to my wishlist.
Thanks for the suggestion.
