Vakhchav is the work of Nickolas Mohanna and his debut for Blackest Rainbow is a limited CDr in a run of 50 copies and what a sweetie it is too. Mohanna's tools are guitar, synth electronics and computer and he uses them to create clouds of cosmic drone with slightly fuzzy edges on opener 'Sequels', then 'Line In Motion' has a more ambient quality that is primed for a late night listening session. 'Passage' comes as a bit of a surprise with spooked distorted ghostly vocals, it punctuates the vibe of the previous two track really well before we arrive at 'Of A Curvature' which is all Flying Saucer Attack Popul Vuh haze. Birth to a Point It Comes is real nice release.

What their label says...

New release from New York based Nickolas Mohanna, following some fine releases on Abandon Ship and Super Minerals/Magic Lantern's Phil French consistently excellent Stunned Records imprint. Mohanna creates Vakhchav through a hazed blur of synth, guitar, electronics and computer, giving this, his first non-US label release, a real nice ambient quality throughout. 'Sequels' opens the disc with a star-gaze wavering drone, washing in from multiple directions for full immersed bliss. 'Line In Motion' has a deep bass working your brain from the distance with a purely electric droning riff fading in from some unknown source. 'Passage' is brief with barely audible voices being subjected to pure static destruction, before heading into 'Of a Curvature', which returns to the blissed out multi drones of the opening track. This fine disc finished on 'The Take (at Dusk)' which is a 7 minute piece which somehow seems to blur all the elements of Birth To A Point's frenzied dizzying bursts and the euphoric dream like moments.
