...according to our Ant on 02 August 2007.

Ant back again somewhat excited and relived after the chaos of moving house. I woke up this morning and felt like I was on holiday. The First night I spent at the new pad a little hedgehog came up to me in the garden to say hello. I almost shed a tear...."Oh come to me my woodland friends" After a couple of days out of the office I'm greeted with so many exciting records I'm going to have to sell a kidney...This ace CD by Nathan Siter. 'Exosphere' on the Plague Recordings label (that label that put out the excellent Audela CD). In a nutshell this is a stonking dark ambient album with bleak futuristic soundscapes, colossal cinematic atmospherics collide with brooding drones. A big thumbs up from me.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

Plague Records moves forward with Nathan Siter's Exosphere.  Back are the reverbeating tonescapes and echoing twitterings of past Plague releases.  But Siter's great contribution to the listener is the organically evolving and morphing beats he constructs seemingly as mushrooms spontaneously generate from the ground.  Dense pockets of layered tones pile into skittering and often body quaking pulsations driving the recordings, throbbing with intensity, and then decompose in the same manner.  These are powerful compositions which flow seamlessly together and leave the listener fulfilled, but wanting more!
Highly praised debut album, limited to 300 copies, housed in cardboard sleeve. 61 minutes of icy ambient, isolating scapes and pulsing rhythms.
