Phrenitis (album)
''Phrenitis'' is the sixth album by Swedish dark ambient project Atrium Carceri. It was released on December 2, 2009, by Cold Meat Industry. Description ''Phrenitis'' takes the listener to a twisted place where the walls between worlds are razed. The ruinous cities of wars long past, where time itself is but a prisoner and the warlords roaming their purgatorial halls are free to destroy the very foundations of the natural order. 'Phrenitis' is the 6th album of Atrium Carceri and is yet another step of the ever increasing Atrium Carceri wake up call. Simon Heath shows himself and the world, yet again, that no man is ever truly the master of their art unless they strive to evolve with it. The soundscapes he has created bypass the conscious mind, taking the listener deep into his pristine nightmare. The evolution of sound is spot-on and sets Atrium Carceri apart from other lazy dark ambient acts by being a truly diverse piece, replete with details upon details to make the illusion c ...

Experimental Music
Experimental music is a general label for any music or music genre that pushes existing boundaries and genre definitions. Experimental compositional practice is defined broadly by exploratory sensibilities radically opposed to, and questioning of, institutionalized compositional, performing, and aesthetic conventions in music. Elements of experimental music include Indeterminacy in music, indeterminate music, in which the composer introduces the elements of chance or unpredictability with regard to either the composition or its performance. Artists may also approach a hybrid of disparate styles or incorporate unorthodox and unique elements. The practice became prominent in the mid-20th century, particularly in Europe and North America. John Cage was one of the earliest composers to use the term and one of experimental music's primary innovators, utilizing Indeterminacy (music), indeterminacy techniques and seeking unknown outcomes. In France, as early as 1953, Pierre Schaeffer had ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Cold Meat Industry
Cold Meat Industry was a Swedish independent record label established in 1987 by Roger Karmanik, which specialized in niche music genres such as dark ambient, death industrial, and neoclassical dark wave. History From its inception, Cold Meat Industry gained a reputation for introducing artists that were unique and musically innovative.

Souyuan
''Souyuan'' is the fifth album by Swedish dark ambient project Atrium Carceri. It was released on November 18, 2008 through Cold Meat Industry Reviews "Though this album has the Carceri sound written all over it, it’s also a bit different. There is a fair share of rhythmic structures to be found, which isn’t strange with his work, but somehow it feels different. The sounds are more experimental and subliminal, with an occasional IDM-like approach. And it also has a more industrial feel than the other releases. The total atmosphere is like being in a disturbing asylum, like ‘Seishinbyouin’. Supposedly he did about three years to create this work, also with the aid of test listeners and observing their reactions. This seems a somewhat unusual process, but if it’s true it sure did work! The sound is very scary with a lot of things happening in the background. And it’s again an album where the musician behind it all is also a great storyteller; it does really feel that itâ ...
