greetings and good morning, all. today is Bandcamp Friday! so here's some news for you.
I.
last April, i released "Seasons of Crippling Frost", my latest in a full series of black metal EPs centered around the seasons. like all of my music, it's free to download.
II.
today, i have released "2023", a compilation/remaster of the first three Noctoran records, "Thy Curses We Bear Eternal", "Wounds Throughout Time", and "The Clouded Peak of Null Space". i gave each track a (quick) second pass on production in order to unify the material a little more, so in some way you could consider it a new angle on old music!
as i couldn't figure out how to have this release be private and still sell tapes for it (which is the primary reason i assembled this compilation), i've released it on both noctoran.bandcamp.com and tronmaximum.bandcamp.com.
note that each of these three releases have also been individually updated on Bandcamp. if you bought any of the first three records (or downloaded them for free), you can nab the updated 2024 mix at your leisure.
speaking of tapes -- tapes are now available for both "2023" and "Seasons of Crippling Frost"! US only for now until i figure out international shipping, please. each tape (and CDs coming) is DIY crafted with hand-cut paper inserts, hand-printed labels, and in some cases, a little bit of extra personality (the fun way we like to say "some little cracks and scratches in places, perhaps, but not guaranteed).
merch will be released in limited quantities in order to manage scope of production. if you end up discovering a tape or CD you want is sold out, just keep an eye on my cohost feed as i'll announce every time i drop new merch or refill previous merch.
III.
i am playing two shows in the upcoming two months! i will make formal show announcements on cohost later today with flyers. set your dates for May 17th and June 23rd! may have shirts, may have more CDs and tapes.
that's all for now. thanks for all the support, thanks for listening and sharing. extra thanks if you end up buying something today.
i just released a new compilation of my material for last year for the purpose of dropping NEW MERCH! tapes are now available on the Bandcamp. listing CDs soon. please consider checking out my music!
if you don't enjoy black metal, i have a bunch of weird music on my discography bandcamp page, N.Excelsia Audioworks, where i have a bunch of:
various experimental and ambient music
(Mother Excelsia (guitar), The Horizon of Silence (synths))
improvised free rhythm noise
(Bog Sirens (drums/guitar), Dawn/Shannon (guitar/bass, guitar duo)
industrial electronic doom and atmospheric electronics
(solarinception)
experimental digital grind
(TRON MAXIMUM)
take your pick! whatever you choose, i hope you enjoy listening.
