Black Mesa.
Memory keeper. Mostly music and movies, plus some series and video games. Obscure darkness meets pop culture glow.

Black Mesa.

Heartbreaking ambient.

This feels to me what Khoiba felt like in 2004. Personal, emotional, delicate.

Pretty damn good.

Mid-tempo break beats over IDM electronics. Nina Kraviz collected some rare materials of Biogen, good that she did.

Starts with this saxophone-infused trippy 10-minute mindbend (the Hungarian band Másfél comes to mind), followed by adding some low-fi vocals to the mix, then goes on with orbiting around the SQÜRL sound (think Only Lovers Left Alive’s soundtrack), and quits with a psychedelic rock end sequence. Quite a ride.

Fixmer, Ostgut Ton, techno.

Otherworldly, dreamscapes, beautiful.

Sick heavy drum thing. Something evil crawling. Like a black and white silent film soundtrack.

Low-fi ethereal post-punk post-rock thing. But mainly wins with the low-fi charm. Although I love this Wire review – how thorough. (Original from 1992, re-issued in 2017.)
