Next up is a lovely picture disc by Adam Pacione who I think runs Bee Keeper Recordings and who also released a smashing album on Infraction back in 2007 'Dobranoc' is a really classy record with its haunting static sounds and warm atmospherics.. The long pieces build slowly revealing a real depth to the layers and give a kind of comforting vibe. Ltd edition heavy duty disc with Adam's wonderful photos complementing the audio perfectly.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...


Dobranoc contains more than 40 minutes of new music utilizing field recordings, guitars, shortwave radio, analog keyboards & Moog filters. Haunting and yet serene, overflowing with contemplative and melodic tones, these are mostly long-form pieces: "Always" builds slowly into a monolithic block of sound, while in the title track, layer after layer of warm atmosphere appears and then unravels into a sea of tranquility. This is three-dimensional music, strikingly elegant, from a modern master of the art.

This picture disc LP is adorned with Pacione's lovely full-color macro photography circa 1995. The colorful sounds and images are bound together into a unified abstraction, dreamlike in its beauty.

Adam Pacione has been a fixture in the upper echelon of ambient drone for the last five years with releases on Elevator Bath, Infraction, and his own Bee Eater Recordings imprint. Pacione is also a highly skilled photographer with solo exhibitions and nearly a lifetime of experience under his belt. He lives in Fort Worth, Texas.

This picture disc LP has been released in an edition of 268 copies.

Total running time: 44 minutes
