about

Huge thanks to Igloo Mag for including Akousmatasm 2 in their Best Of 2020 alongside some jaw-dropping artists and works. igloomag.com/features/best-of-2020

Created in the midst of the global pandemic that has dominated 2020, Akousmatasm 2 is the first follow-up in the Akousmatasm series. Roaming across a cinematic soundscape in flux, and surveying darker, perhaps stranger chasms than its earlier counterpart, this instalment draws inspiration and energy from a year of solitude and uncertainty.

Recommended if you like any of the following artists (albums) or you have an interest in sound art, soundscapes or discreet music:
Brian Eno (Ambient 4: On Land)
Aphex Twin (Selected Ambient Works Vol II)
Jobanshi (Where The Sidewalk Ends)
Alva Noto (A Forest)
Jan Jelinek (Kosmischer Pitch)
Susumu Yokota (Sakura and Grinning Cat)
The Caretaker (Everywhere At The End Of Time)
Basinski (Disintegration Loops)

I am grateful to these artists and many more for conjuring deep imagery and inspiration.

This year will have affected the mental health of many people across the world. Despite these challenges, I hope that everyone finds a way to be safe and enjoy some peace at the close of 2020. I will be donating 50% of all monies raised to Samaritans. If you need impartial support, or you just want to talk to someone about how you're feeling, you can call Samaritans on 116 123 or chat online at their website samaritans.org . If you are based outside the UK, you can find help at Befrienders Worldwide: www.befrienders.org

I wish you all good emotional health and support now and in the future. x

Oblivion Engine
by Tomoroh Hidari

supported by 4 fans who also own “AKOUSMATASM 2”

When legendary underdog Tomoroh Hidari makes a move, you know you are in for a treat. An audio mangling, soul crushing, void thrusting treat, to be specific. Though i have to admit (and warn the accustomed Hidarian listener): this here may contain unexpected amounts of funk and groove 😎 FRIENDS OF THE NOISE FLOOR
