VORTEX - VINYL HAXAN [VINYL]

Popis - HAXAN [VINYL]:
In celebration of this 100th anniversary of the Benjamin Christensen's film 'Häxan', German ritual formation Vortex has developed a brooding, percussive and complex musical work evoking hidden energies and abyssal spirituality. Having dealt with Vorticism, ancient mythology and solar rituals on their previous albums, 'Häxan' represents an epic new level for Vortex's energetic ritual sound, based on drones, gongs, throat singing, percussion, strings, guitars, horns, and processed field recordings. Both vinyl and the accompanying CD included in this set contain completely different mixes of two main compositions: The vinyl mix is a dynamic, drone guitar driven post-industrial collage, while the CD reduces this approach to its dark ambient core. Both versions are apocalyptic soundtracks in their own right and are intended for rituals, meditation and a deep listening experience.
