about

This album was recorded in an old, partially abandoned cement factory close to the borders of Russia and China. Its skeletal metal structures are rich in haunting low-frequency (over)tones, Jan's highly sensitive geophones (devices used for seismic recording) allow us to hear the earth-shaking sonic worlds of these ghostly locations.

Jan Ryhalsky was born and lives in the far east of Russia. He began to record sounds in 2010, and quickly dove deep into recording theory. The main focus of his research is sounds with low intensity, often beyond the threshold of human hearing.

Sometimes soothing, more often slightly disturbing, this recording deserves a hearing from fans of Emptyset, Robert Curgenven, Pan Sonic, & Richard Chartier's LINE label. Too bad I missed out on the tape. jasonk
