Limited Edition CD with an Obi stripe

Artwork by Nigel Ayers
Layout and design by 佐々木景 Kei Sasaki
Remastered by 山﨑裕太 Yuta Yamazaki

This is the first-ever compilation bringing together Nigel Ayersʼ solo work and his long-running project Nocturnal Emissions. Covering recordings from the early 1980s up to 2024, it spans more than four decades of experimental sound.
The compilation, fully remastered in Tokyo, traces the major phases of Nocturnal Emissions and Nigel Ayersʼ work, spanning raw, confrontational noise rooted in the squatting scene and anti-capitalist protest of the early 1980s; the rhythm-driven period that brought dancefloor energy to industrial grit; and Ayersʼ later solo “Neotantric” phase of ambient, ritualistic sound exploring magick, ancient beliefs and altered states while carrying forward a spirit of subversion and transcendence that remains entirely intact decades later. Across these eras, the collection captures the full breadth of Ayersʼ creative journey and moves between intense, layered noise and quiet, atmospheric soundscapes blending field recordings, spoken word, electronics, and collage.

Ambient Koan represents a profound synthesis of three decades of experimental music exploration and 25 years of Zen practice. This 16th studio album by Viz Michael Kremietz emerges from the liminal spaces between breath, sound, and meditation, anchored by the ancient voice of the Shakuhachi flute. The album weaves together solo compositions originally created for theater and performance with collaborative pieces featuring some of Europe's most innovative experimental musicians. Each track serves as a sonic meditation, inviting listeners into "unknown dimensions with pre-verbal and pre- symbolic origins."

Sleepers presents:

matar - archaeoacoustics

The record comes with a 14 page booklet
Available in Black Vinyl LP and Transparent Limited Edition LP

"The MATAR project was founded by Adi Newton TAG /SOON/ Spectral Unit / ClockDVA in 2016  in collaboration with Michael Esposito, an American pioneering EVP researcher & Sarah Rosalena Brady, an American Violinist and Assistant Professor of Art at UC Santa Barbara with a number of special performances in the US and Europe. the Album Archaeoacoustics has been developed over 5 years using live binaural beat frequency recordings at Stone Henge and field recordings from the Hurlers site in Minions / Bodmin Moor .

 

the Album explores concepts from Archaeoacoustic theories and the spiritual Mythological beliefs of Ancient cultures such as the Phrygian and Magnesian. the Name MATAR is derived from the Phrygian name meaning ('Mother’). At Pessinos in Phrygia, the mother goddess identified by the Greeks as Cybele took the form of an unshaped stone of black meteoric iron, and may have been associated with or identical to Agdistis, Pessinos' mountain deity.


No contemporary text or myth survives to attest the original character and nature of Cybele's Phrygian cult. Images and iconography in funerary contexts, and the ubiquity of her Phrygian name Matar ("Mother"), suggest that she was a mediator between the "boundaries of the known and unknown: the civilised and the wild, the worlds of the living and the dead. Her association with hawks, lions, and the stone of the mountainous landscape of the Anatolian wilderness."
