Ruptured World, a cinematic dark ambient project of Alistair Rennie (UK), who is also known as an author of Weird Fantasy and Horror Fiction, will release on 7th August through Cryo Chamber a new album entitled Exoplanetary. Ruptured World with Exoplanetary offers an unique listening and reading experience that integrates sound orchestration with speculative dark fiction to present a quasi-scientific account of future possibilities rendered in sound. Recommended for fans of cinematic dark ambient and spoken word.
About the album and concept: The exoplanetary deep space mission to Proxima Centauri b has reached its intended destination. Work begins on assessing the planet for its suitability as a site of colonial expansion and habitation for an increasingly desperate human race. But there are problems. Exoplanetary features fragments of transmissions amid sonorous and distorted interpretations of narrative events as the mission faces up to the challenges of off-world exploration and the inescapable fact that, on Proxima Centauri b, the human visitors are not alone. Cosmic horror combines with ambient evocations of a real-life futuristic drama in the face of alien estrangement and a prevailing aura of existential persecution. Radio transmissions are superseded by melodic inferences of atmospheric detail and the otherworldly drones of cosmic landscapes and the mysterious twilight roaming grounds of the Krivren. In the players below you can give a listen to first two tracks, "The Bright Communion Of Primal Energies" and "The Sunken Valleys". Artwork and mastering for the album was done by Simon Heath (Atrium Carceri, Sabled Sun). Link
