drone / ambient / doom
2500 kilometers apart from one another and still able to create an intriguing collaboration album. Without the internet, this album might have been never been made which would really be a shame. So, hurray for the internet and now let's dive in the massive cesspool of drones, soundscapes and noise that this stunning album actually is.
[ B O L T ] is a drone doom trio from Germany while Biblo lives and works in Istanbul, Turkey. There she creates deep ambient soundscapes. The artwork consists of pictures shot and arranged by Ole-Kristian Heyer.
The four tracks on this album vary quite a lot from each other, depending on who was involved in the recording process. Track one is a dark, droning anthem, created by [ B O L T ]. On the second track, Biblo cooperates, which turns the music into an amalgamation of noises, soundscapes, drones and strange rhythmic elements. Quite often this collaboration crosses the borders between ambient music and noise, which is pretty damn awesome.
Biblo takes care of track three on her own. It's an almost danceable track, driving on deep percussion and an hypnotic repetitiveness. The last track is another collaboration. Again driving on rhythmic percussion, this one turns from a trip hop ambient tune into a heavy droning doom metal track. For that, it's my favorite on this collaboration, which doesn't mean I don't like the other tracks. On the very contrary. This is an excellent collaboration, one I absolutely recommend.
