In opinion there are very few (at least to my knowledge) good artist working within drone if one have the original spiritual heritage/function in mind. Ulaan Khol La Catacomb (Soft Abuse): Electric guitar compositions by Mr.

( Burial Hex contribution to the series was tits as well.) Troum Aerugo (Tourette): Nothing new, but 7" is kinda an exciting format for Troum. Not straight drone, but it has it's moments. Speaking of, his Sterility has to be one of my favorite albums ever. Troum Eald-Ge-Stréon (Beta-lactam Ring): Always felt like Methadrone was leaning on this album, aside from Lycia obviously. Troum AIWS (Transgredient) : Like segments of Grote. Troum Mare Idiophonika (Tourette/Silken Tofu) Troum Grote Mandrenke (Beta-lactam Ring): This and the next disc touch a lot on post-rock sounds, although made through synthesis I believe, but Troum is a household name and well-deserved of that. Acoustic guitar, piano and silence.įor serene-and-occasionally-ominous-drone: Ulaan Passerine Ulaan Passerine (Brave Mysteries): Smith's most accomplished work to date - and I've felt that way many times before. Pelt Ayahuasca (VHF): One of their albums where Jack Rose's heavenly talent keeps lapsing through, as well as some traditional folk music, but the drone sections are some of the best you'll hear. Rituals hidden deep in the belly of the mine.īorn Of Six Svapiti (Important): Amelia Cuni, Catherine Christer Hennix and Werner Durand performing in the drone tradition.Įllen Fullman The Long String Instrument (Apollo): Hypnox label? Doors keep opening, unleashing unknown beasts, pulling you in.īurial Hex Four Tone Poems Of Orlog (Cathartic Process): Still cthonic, but not electronics. Halo Manash Taiwaskivi (Aural Hypnox): Best release from the A. Physical instrumentation intermixed with heavy synthing.Īrktau Eos Ai Ma Ra (Aural Hypnox): Hard to stay focused for two discs, but there's a shit ton of highlights. The North Sea & Rameses III Night Of The Ankou (267 lattajjaa/Type): Two awful projects did this one awesome collaboration.

A darker sound for the project.ĭuane Pitre Feel Free (Important): Zen koan drone. My favorite track by him.Įleh Fading Spectrum Of Darkness (Important): From the Sun Circle split. Best of this three-part series, and best of the debuts, in my ears.Įleh The Beauty Of The Steel Skeleton (Important): From the Pauline Oliveros split. Soon to be re-released by Important.Įleh Floating Frequencies / Intuitive Synthesis II (Important): High-salary analog drone. Based around stringed instruments and organ pump.Įliane Radigue Adnos I-III (Table Of The Elements): Three discs, all sitting perfectly, by the empress as stated above. 1 (Aural Hypnox): Analog sounds from the dungeon.ĭuane Pitre/Pilotram Ensemble Organized Pitches Occuring In Time (Important): From the start of his works. « Last Edit: August 16, 2013, 08:32:41 AM by Andrew McIntosh »Īural Holograms Vol. Please let me know what you think is worth tracking down. In any case, I haven't seen this as a topic here for a while and.actually, let's not even worry about it. Of course, any variations to be suggested will be.Įdit - PS I did the usual search-function search and found no topic like this here, oddly enough, although a lot of reference to drone right throughout. I'm particularly interested in Drone that is blatantly so - not so much drone included amongst other factors, but the pure Drone, done as well as possible. From the empress herself, Elaine Radigue, through to Charlemagne Palestine, Folke Rabe, Jean-Claude Eloy, to more recent exponents like Eleh and Erik Jarl, there is such a thing as Drone that doesn't suck but does give. I don't blame you for groaning.īut the quality material, the really good Drone - you hear it and realise why it's such a great idea. We've all endured second-rate releases of someone leaning on a keyboard for an hour, or chancers at gigs dragging out every speck of gear from the bedroom to replicate the transcendent moments they manage to achieve while they softly strum their guitars through banks of pedals and software. More than even Wall Noise, Drone would have to be the most over-abused format.
