The series by The Cosmic Musical Connection continues with part six, another massive compilation of Dutch electronic music works by Brainvoyager, Skoulaman, Eagle Synth Music, and many others, myself included.

The Extragalactic Sessions Part 5
The Extragalactic Sessions is a series of recordings, sonically spiralling amidst the outer filaments of the universe in an attempt to escape the fluxus of life on Earth.
As distances between gravitationally unbound parts increase, it has almost been two lightyears since the previous extragalactic session. Time has arrived again to weave through sono-astrophysical meshes.

Moderately Sized Steps
It has been a while since the last Minute Of Arc release, even though this music was recorded between 2018 and 2022. Mostly with Renoise, as the cover indicates, but some of the processing was done in Logic. By far no giant steps, just moderately sized steps.

Aˈkʷaː.ti.kus
This album started out as a spiritual successor of “Tracing Rays” (Wil-Ru Records, 2013), an album that was constructed using meticulous sound design and processing. A similar approach was used for “Aˈkʷaː.ti.kus”, but limited to one piece of equipment: a Nord Wave 2 performance synthesizer, processed with my digital audio workstation of choice, Renoise.
The track titles are in line with the aquatic album title, each of them representing a different zone in the ocean, in order of depth.
As the chords gently ripple through each track, the rhythms shift between various forms, deviating more often than not from traditional technoid drum patterns.
Recordings From A Dimly Lit Studio
Ohrwert presents “Recordings From A Dimly Lit Studio” by R¥S. An alter ego once thought of to use for tracks that felt different from my other bodies of work, but rarely used to release any music. The artist name is a play on my first name, phonetically spelled (r+yen = Arjen), and the initial of my last name.
Much thought went into the decision wether I should release it through Ohrwert or not. It is not dubby, and not particularly deep, but it does share some common grounds and sheds light on music I have been working on in parallel to dub techno, which would probably not see the light of day otherwise.

Propagations Through Time And Space: Prequel
Previously unreleased recordings of the “Propagations Through Time And Space” series, which were recorded almost a year prior to the first official release in 2010.

Minimalist Music Assembly
My latest excursions in ambient and meditative drone music, named after an unofficial CD-R release from 2005. Two ethereal textured loops and stochastically driven tree tones, utilizing an instrument designed by Dillon Bastan with Max For Live.
The Extragalactic Sessions Part 4
The Extragalactic Sessions is a series of recordings, sonically spiralling amidst the outer filaments of the universe in an attempt to escape the fluxus of life on Earth.
Moving in stellar groups alongside Alpha Persei and Beta Pictoris, traversing interplanetary dust clouds through non-stellar radiation, until galactic obscuration.

Serenus
Spiritual successor of “Parcial”, serenity ensues.
Parcial
A seemingly effortless flow of harmonic partials, divided in two, with each their own ethereal character.
