Pyramiden
by zakè ◾️ Markus Guentner ◾️ James Bernard February 17, 2023 Limited Edition Digistak + Digital Credits___ Written and produced by zakè, James Bernard, and Markus Guentner Mixed and Mastered at Ambient Mountain House by James Bernard Photography by Benoît Pioulard Layout and design by zakè ©℗ 2023 Zakè Drone Recordings This is ZD-023 | MMXXIII zakedronerecordings.com zakedrone.com ▽ jamesbernard.bandcamp.com markus-guentner.bandcamp.com Review___ "What more could you ask for than three highly respected masters of ambient sound coming together to create a pièce de résistance of aural brilliance? PITP and ZDR does it again; this time combining an incredible 'trio de force' consisting of zakè, Markus Guentner, and James Bernard. Introducing 'Pyramiden'; a declaration of ambient excellence that will no doubt be held with the highest regards for generations to come. These eight arrangements take the listener on a journey to the most remote places, finding comfort in the beauty of stillness, awe-inspiring landscapes, and illuminated nights of wonder. The tracklist may suggest a cold, lonely affair with titles such as, 'Polar Night', 'Seafrost', and 'Arctic Choir' but it is quite the contrary. Even in the coldest of times and places, warmth has its place and purpose. Warmth in this case could quite possibly be hope. An incredible array of textures and layers permeate throughout Pyramiden with impeccable beauty and pure resonance.." -Juno Records |

Deep into the unknown, we shall endlessly roam
by zakè January 27, 2023 Limited Edition Cassette + Digital About___ ‘Deep into the unknown, we shall endlessly roam’ is a collection of arrangements created primarily by the use of analog tape and archaic tape devices. These repetitive themes hang in perpetuity, while seldom wavering from its original aural expression. zakè reshaped and produced foundational tape loops using an obsolete VSC Soundpacer, while complementing the loops with field recordings captured by a time-worn, Sony M-570V microcassette voice recorder. Other elements of these recordings were further rendered by the use of an Akai GX-270D Reel-To-Reel, a gift given by close friend and sound artist, Isaac Helsen. “Deep into the unknown, we shall endlessly roam” is dedicated to those who continue to yearn for greater understanding. Allow this to be a phonic accompaniment in your life’s personal journey.” Credits___ Written, recorded, produced and mixed at Kaleidoscope Tone Studio by zakè Mastered at AMH by James Bernard Expired polaroid photo cover by zakè ©℗ 2023 Zakè Drone Recordings This is ZD-LOOP2 | MMXXIII zakedronerecordings.com zakedrone.com |
