<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\nREMST8 \u2013 COALESCENCE<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\nIt takes a special state of mind to fully appreciate long-form drone music. But there are times that you may \u201cwant to play it on repeat so you can zone out for hours\u201d<\/em>, like MKL Anderson<\/em> (Drekka, <\/em>and also owner of Bluesanct<\/a> records) told Michael \u2018Remst8\u2019 Carlson<\/em><\/strong> when they talked about this project.<\/p>\nCoalescence<\/em><\/strong> plays for four hours and seven minutes, divided in eight tracks ranging from 17:58 to 54:57, but meant to be played in a continuous session. Each of these drone pieces completely defies time. It\u2019s easy to let these immersive pieces help you to \u2018zone out\u2019 <\/em>completely \u2013 the listener\u2019s patience is fully rewarded.
\u2018The listener is cast adrift, held aloft, and immersed in sonic environments that reflect nature and the unnatural.\u2019<\/em>
Listening on headphones is advised but of course not necessary when played on a decent system.<\/p>\nMichael Carlson<\/em><\/strong> is an experimental computer musician focusing on drone ambient and field recording, \u2018revolving around tracker programs since the early \u201990s\u2019<\/em>. He originally composed this music in quadraphonic sound, and then re-mixed those tracks in stereo for this release. And then remixed them again in Dolby Atmos surround!<\/p>\nDue to the extensive length, long-form music like this is usually only released in digital format. But not Coalescence: <\/em><\/strong>it is also available in a cassette-shaped USB flashdrive, which not only contains the (continuous) stereo mixes, but also the individual tracks in Dolby Atmos <\/em>MP4 format. On top of that there are also some extra music videos with a 5.1 surround sound. Needless to say that for this music, the surround format is a great extra sonic dimension!<\/p>\nThe Cassette flashdrive is available in a limited edition of 50. The digital download is offered as name-your-price <\/em>(!!!).<\/p>\n
