Here you can find the re-release of ‘The Geometry of Night’ with its new sister album ‘Companion’. Below you can read the lovely promo blurb from Loki Foundation:
First released in 1996, `The Geometry of Night´ is the second album of Andrew Lagowski´s deep space sound project which marked a reference point to his works under the name LAGOWSKI. A classic album with laid back percussion, finely-tuned electronics, dark atmospheric synth waves and soundscapes. All constructed around a central premise; ‘The Geometry of Night’ perfectly describes the themes of night sky surveys, surveillance operations and radio telescope disinformation with the advice to keep a wary eye on the dark side of human nature. This is a remedy for the lonely nights staring at your social interface, the melancholy for lost opportunities and a hope for what lies beyond the nearest nebula.
This newly re-mastered edition includes the sister album `Companion´ with more than 60 minutes of new material. The concept involves companions, bound together by molecular chains, enveloped in dark matter and history. Swirling endlessly within infinite illuminating spirals. Their BrEAUTalitY – answerable only to the laws of universal physics and spiritual cosmology. A stunning soundtrack of deep hypnotic drones, textured layers of noise and space transmissions. Moving extra terrestrial sound research to its deepest core!
This double CD set comes in a nice 6-panel digifile. Mastered at Secretlab.
Just announced by txt recordings is my S.E.T.I. album ‘The Data Logs of Astro Myrmex’. Despite the promo text on their website, this album is the audio data logs recorded by Astro Myrmex on its/her/his journeys around the wormholes of the Universe. Each track has a path name, according to the path taken by Astro. Pre-order is available here. There are 15 copies and a digital download available via my Bandcamp site from 22nd June 2015.
Here you will find the gig video recorded by Jean-Yves Millet (thank you). 3D stills mapped by Pete Woodhead – thanks also to Pete! This is part one. Parts two and three should automatically follow in the playlist…thanks to a great audience, to the LOKI and Raubbau Rising guys for organising everything and to Marco for the live audio control.
After a query from a certain ‘Gaston Grimsdyke’, I decided to search out all of the tracks I created in 2001 as muzak for the ISS (International Space Station). They are now available as a digital album, to be played loud and enjoyed for the experimental beasts that they are.
S.E.T.I. performance at Phobos IV Festival, Sophienkirche, Wuppertal, November 3rd 2012. With thanks to Martin Phelios for organisation and camerawork and Yukari Lagowski for logistical support.
This new double cd compilation has been released by Zoharum from Poland. Featuring exclusive tracks by S.E.T.I., Phelios, Ah Cama-Sotz, Zenial and a host of others. It’s packaged in a beautifully designed gatefold digipack and is dedicated to Robert Anton Wilson.
I’ve been neglecting this site somewhat, posting quite a bit of download release info, but never really engaging the visitor – I apologise! Newest material I’m working on includes a S.E.T.I. track called ‘Steppe’, after a story my sister sent me. As we all know, the Russians have a long history of UFO sightings, well now it appears that they have UFO’s under the sea too! A very worthwhile subject for my investigation. The track is approximately 8 minutes long, with haunting sounds aplenty, and some great Ableton-mashed up Reaktor sequences.
There will be more tracks like this to come, and once I have a big enough collection, I shall be looking for a label to release them into the wild.
For those interested in the technical nature of my S.E.T.I. work, this particular material uses Ableton Live as a sound production and mixing environment, with other sounds being supplied by Reaktor, Reason, iPod Touch running Jasuto and Plogue Bidule.
