V/A X-RATED: The DARK Files CD (Streamin’ Soundworks) A collection of dark ambient electronics and industrial music, some with goth leanings. This is a dedication CD to JHONN BALANCE of COIL who passed away not too long ago. 1. Patient ambient “tribal” sounding track with processed female vocals. **2. Electronic piano sounds mixed with electronics. No beats. **3. A COIL track from a limited CDR. Very ambient electronic drone with a spoken word story/poem. Reminds me a little of CURRENT 93. **4. A great tribute to the man and band, late 80s/early 90s sounding electronics with vocals samples about “deviant sex”. Could almost fit on the “Horse Rotorvator” release. **5. NURSE WITH WOUND contribute something more akin to noise but still quiet and patient with static sounds and electronics. The 2nd half the track has some slowed down vocals. Has a horror movie feel. 6. Lush keyboards and harsher beats. Later organ type sounds with less harsh beats. **7. Quiet minimal sounds to begin. Vague monk-like vocals and an extremely dark industrial sound. By the end of the track it sounds like we are inside a factory. 8. Very quiet for the first minute and a half. Eventually a lush electronic sound is mixed with some scary mostly indecipherable vocals. 9. Old electronic sounds from the mid 80s mixed with vocals mostly saying a word or two at a time. 10. The other main member of COIL and JHONN’S partner doing a more upbeat sounding electronic track. No beats and lots of disembodied vocals. 11. Buzzing ambience with something that sounds like a guitar. Very good tribute -mph | ||
