More Info

Filed under: Mysterious Drone-Ambience with an experimental/noisy edge! Das Projekt von CYRIL HERRY, mit vielen metallischen & glasartigen Sounds, rumpelig und dröhnig, insgesamt recht post-industriell, entstammt alles aus einer Aufnahme-Session, intense stuff! 53+ minutes, 5 tracks...

"Ninth Desert is the latest solo project of Cyril Herry from France, also known before as Ashes To Ashes, Sechres Mound (a duo in collaboration with Toy Bizarre), Lecanora and Exotoendo. During the years his music has been released by many international labels including Athanor, Old Europa Cafe, Harmonie, Verato Project, Taâlem / Kokeshidisk and Mystery Sea.
After taking part to our 10th year celebrative on-line compilation in late 2005, Cyril proposed us a full-lenght release. We're therefore happiest to bring "Different Trouble Experiences of Twilight" to your attention.
As the title aptly suggests, the album was recorded using many different kinds of manipulated, stretched, treated and stripped down sound sources. All the tracks on "Different Trouble Experiences of Twilight" were created mostly at night during Summer 2005 ("Headscape", "Combinations From a Persistent Night" and "Somewhere Close to the Skin") and Summer 2006 ("Selective Memory" and "Red Mute").
They represent different mentalscapes where all elements are forced to coexist in the same time and space by a complex internal memory system. There's quite a lot of movement in "Headscape", where strained metallic reverberations shift along with low rumbles on a background of micro-actions. "Combinations From a Persistant Night" suggests distant echoes of symphonic reminiscences as distorted buzzes of misterious machineries flow in and out of the mix.
On "Somewhere Close to the Skin" the sound of metal objects/devices is more than just a conjecture and the tension it creates is gradually filled by a growing background ambience just before dissolving abruptly in silence. "Selective Memory" continues the journey accompanying the listener's attention - rather than directing it - through more minimal excursions and "Red Mute" closes the album with a pleasant and apparently static drone enriched by subtle use of almost subliminal percussive patterns."
