Michał Turowski - Wormwood And Flame

Noise followed by silence. A world warping in response to a single event, all unable to be measured. Both living and inanimate objects going through unique mutations. The emptiness ensues then continues on, remaining through time. The only condition of any perpetuity has been displayed by all ancient civilizations, be made of stone. The people who made this place their home are gone, vacated or deceased, nostalgia left behind decays then disiapates beyond recognition. Some living things do survive, thriving without control or constant manicure. This change in residence is beautiful and serene, without anyone left to document until now. Michał Turowski has channeled the sonic battle of woven molecules against the steady decay of time. 

Wormwood And Flame is an ambient warning. A siren or alarm reverberating in both directions of time. Disaster and death lingering in sonic space, resonance diluted but still quite pungent. The shrill of horror becoming the astonishing beautiful aural pageant. With any intuition, what is being transmitted has an undercurrent of foreshadowing regarding possible futures to unravel. Wormwood And Flame has depth in sound and girth in length, over an hour of music divided over eleven tracks.
Maybe best described as eerily tranquil, a sonic landscape filled with desolation. Like monument valley in the western states, monoliths surviving millions of years of erosion. Physical violence by nature leaving stoic relics to tell the story. Wormwood And Flame bestows a similar message, the unoccupied emptiness resonating with a new harmony. Distantly alien but still very much part of our construct, these sounds convey a feeling of abandonment and loneliness. Somehow in this solitude a natural warmth flows evading description, mesmerizing sonic brush strokes by Michał Turowski. An event where all things dissolve and become one again.

Working together, Mozdok and Positive Regression have released this composition in a limited edition compact disc recordable in a production run of one hundred. Beautiful artwork on a four panel fold. A composition deserving your time and thoughts.

Just noticed Positive Regression has this in a cassette edition as well with only three copies remaining.
