There are so many neoclassically-influenced dark ambient artists in this world.  Hell, I’m one of them.  It doesn’t mean we’re all good.  In most cases, the results of this hyper-used genre title are muddy disasters at best, no more than long-held keys and repetitive, boring drones with shady, indiscernable titles and more conjecture and theater […]

If I was tasked with identifying some of the hardest workers in Industrial music, I would probably end up making a separate classification under just “Italian”. This land of tradition and impeccable classical art seems to be a particularly prolific in noise-art, and there are probably as many reasons this amassment of artists and sound […]

Certainly, in the dark passageways and subterranean paths of the darkest genres of music, splits have become quite commonplace, and can be as varied as the artists that venture upon them.  The thing I like most about splits is the expectation of variety, along with the chance to hear perhaps a never before discovered artist […]

I’ve never been able to reach an absolute conclusion as to if the conceptual approach has a place in noise. In the ideal scenario, for me noise is sufficiently saturated with energy, emotion and images and I don’t need anything else but the sound itself to experience it at its fullest. However, I’ve seen and […]

As the world continues its routines, Heathen Harvest has been working on this second compilation in honour of the upcoming Walpurgisnacht. As the days brighten and the air warms, the final swansong of the dark beckons this 30th April. In celebration of this occasion Heathen Harvest brings you a compilation album to mark this sublime […]

In the vast world that encompasses dark electronics, it goes without saying that projects can tend to easily bleed into one another as their dedication towards the abrasive or the minimal leads to an inevitable solidarity in sound.  While there is certainly that 20-30 percentile whom operate outside of the confines of those invisible barriers, […]

Fathomless darkness and dismay has the ability to amplify even the smallest glimmer of beauty. In the ugliest corners of material, and immaterial, reality it is not uncommon to discover a defiant diamond in the rough, if you will. A rose amongst the thorns. A beautiful faced whore. A moment of human kindness in war. […]

Behind the steps of death, past the prison of grief, many of us can have a clear vision of what or who has passed away from us. We can appreciate that the perversions of life no longer plague our loved ones, and the value of the best moments we’ve collected alongside the departed reaches as […]

Last week, I got into a few discussions about the point of releasing compilations, and as I’ve attempted to be or was involved in a lot of them in the past, I have to say it’s damn hard to make something really worthy and interesting. And this one is among the best examples of how […]

Another strange release, this one.  Di Aima il Segno consists of music that, perhaps as hinted by the album cover, has been conjured forth by arcane spirits, or at the very least from some ethereal, Occidental shores where spirits gather in the mists, brandishing ancient instruments and resurrecting a compendium of archaic legend through poetry […]
