DARK AMBIENT

[Penon]

Anyone know of the Russian label(?) Distant Mines? Listed on bandcamp as Дальние прииски.

I'm unsure if this is all just one person or not, but I've found the sounds to be very satisfying.

Dark ambient, gloom, field recordings.

The Suspended Apparition - It's Sealed Inside the Church CD

Spooky horror ambient, even with bits of annoying jump scare sounds heh. I love the title and like that there's no occult themes here, just the atmosphere of dread. Sounds are not boring whooshes but manage to keep the attention. Booklet contains old, grainy ghost images you probably have seen before. Like the one from Amityville. A charming release!

I've got a horror synth/dark ambient project you might enjoy called Creep House. It's an experimental type of PE/noise meets dark ambient project. I released a tape on Samhain called 1692 based around horror cult flick Superstition 80's blood bath horror shits. Definitely influenced by the supernatural! I've got plans to do another tape influenced by Amityville II The Possession...maybe next Halloween!

Haven't heard the tape, but Superstition is one of my favorite horror films. I love how ugly and brutal it is.

Regarding dark ambient, I guess it can be classified as such, but I gave a listen to Burzum's Thulêan Mysteries. I lost my interest completely after Umskiptar, but this one is nice. The tracks don't really flow together and it feels more like a compilation of different songs. The cover art is also zero-effort. That being sad it still manages to create epic atmosphere of times gone by, and it has been playing a lot as a background music lately. Very similar type of ambient was pretty obscure Finnish Hyper Borealis - An Audial Escape to the Desolate Landscapes of Ancient Ultima Thule.

I guess Sôl austan... and Ways of Yore deserve another chance now.

He was pretty good at Congresso Post Industriale in 2022, but I still haven't got around to check out the cassettes - thanks for the reminder.

Just discovered this from Naas Alcameth - https://annapurnaprod.bandcamp.com/album/temple-of-not

It's rather good.

I hadn't listened to these in a while so..

Ron Morelli - Betting on Death I and II.

I guess these could fall into the "noise ambient" genre/whatever? They're both nice and moody either way.

Both available digitally on Hospital - https://hospitalproductions.bandcamp.com/

Here is a link to a Masmorra track called Sombre Serenade, which is taken from upcoming Breaking Wheel / Masmorra split tape entitled Full Moon Lycanthropy, which should be out by the end of the month. Masmorra is a weird experimental dark ambient project that almost sounds a bit death industrial at times.

Amon - s/t 1996 on Murder Release https://www.discogs.com/release/404204-Amon-Amon
...Solid, really well done, notable dark ambient.  Deserves a reissue, or at least on bandcamp in original form.

seems he has done a reissue but some tracks off the 2nd album have made their way on here.
