Loss of a Child - Carry Me Home [2009]

Thanks to Barry from Lost Children Net Label for the mail.

From Archive.org

'Carry Me Home' is the 5th Loss of a Child release and is their most expansive yet, a deeply layered album with flowing and interwoven melodies; contrasting instruments supporting, offsetting, and harmonising with each other and mixed for each to be heard though not necessarily under every listening environment, and certainly not on first listen; experimental through its strict structure and detailed song writing as opposed to the freedom and improvisation of many instrumental acts.

Painting By Numbers

Thanks to Gregory from the band for the mail.

Gregory Heopffner

From Archive.org

Painting By Numbers has been a recurring project in the head of its architects long before it actually took shape in autumn 2008.

Antoine Ollivier (Dawnshape) and Gregory Hoepffner (Radius System, Time To Burn, Template) always felt their belonging groups didn't let them experiment as much as they wanted. Soon joined by bandmate Axel Dallou (Radius System), the trio didn't ask too many questions and quickly started making noise, in a language they didn't even speak : improvisation.

Ender - Ender [2009]

Country: New Zealand
Genre: Drone/Ambient Rock

MySpace
Dark Room Recordings
Last.fm

“Ender describe themselves as experimental drone rock - which means their palette is mainly comprised of layered slabs of overdriven guitar…the pair have the capacity not only to construct great caverns of noise but to deftly evoke mood and emotion with sustained tones in harmony and dissonance. The arrangement of pure tone, minus premeditated riffs or the focus of a voice allows a listener to be carried away on its waveforms. The music is corralled into four unnamed parts, perhaps heralding a seasonal life cycle.” - NZ Musician Magazine
