4...according to our Phil on Thu 19 Nov, 2009.

Am starting off this with with the oh so cheery funeral dark drone project by Agnus Dei. 'Paternoster' is released on Sachiko's Music Atlach label. It's a dark, daunting listen as well.... very religious sounding with samples from christian and jewish sermon's all hanging around dark drones and church organs. It's weird but I feel like I'm in church..... Strange samples and voices peer over the religiousness to make a weirdly engaging listen. There's something very medieval about this one.... given the subject matter (dark funeral business) it's surprisingly not too dark. Surprised I was.... Mind you the 2nd track (there's only 2 on there) 'Holocaust Missa' is a much darker affair with distortion, drone, church organs and distorted voices.... loads of weird noises going on in there. Heartily recommended if you like to keep it religious and weird.... I'd like to see 'em whacking this on in Songs Of Praise.

Funeral dark drone project by Naomi Hoca which plays sound to dedicate to the dead based on old sacred songs and religion music.

She dedicated mass at church and devoted herself to religion ancient music of the Renaissance deeply in the Middle Ages of West Europe.

She is affected by the works of mysticism artists and she tries expression of the new religion music that went over the east and west from Christian faith and the point of view of the pagan. Her sound consists of drone, quotation, sacred song and her vocalization, condolence to a victim forgotten by war is dedicated to the sound.
