Gnosis, by Sa Bruxa

Gnosis

by Sa Bruxa

supported by

Lost Tribe Sound Sa Bruxa explores death industrial and lo-fi electronic music from new angles. Slightly torturous meditations give way to deep lurking ritual percussions, uneasy synths lend a DS like quality in moments. The bizarre tapestry of field recordings and interwoven musicality calls to mind the works of David Toop, Clavicvla, Lamin Fofana, or KMRU. But comparisons are hard, 'Gnosis' meanders in some of the most pleasant filth I've come across.

about

"with his second full length "Gnosis", the sardinian (but Berlin based) project Sa Bruxa explores the topic of spiritual evolution - from the degradation of the matter and flesh to a higher and subtle spiritual sublimation. The title comes from the main focus of knowing what is on the opposite side of the matter - which is basically the knowledge of death, achieved through contemplation and spiritual topics, mainly dealing with the easter tradition.

Alternating dark ambient soundscapes, gloomy melodies, field recording and sample manipulation, together with more abrasive death industrial moments, "Gnosis" weaves an esoteric trip through the mortal pain to achieve spiritual evolution, articulated in nine tracks which develop themselves through the over 65 minutes length of the album.

The result is a trip where the borders of outer and inner dimensions fade away, mystic places soaked in magic merges with inner meditative trip through suffering and contemplation, to eventually achieve the liberation through dissolution and the eternal return."

Krypteia
by Moral Order

supported by 6 fans who also own “Gnosis”

Simplistically eerie sounds are the primary genetic makeup of this mostly unknown, to me, act that has now come to be represented by the highly acclaimed Malignant label. Sparse, yet harsh, bewildering and yet somehow soothing, oppressive and yet it never completely overwhelms the listener in a manner of needing to escape its grasp. Verily, this act and album succeeds in transporting the listener back to a more golden era of lo-fi power electronics and noise. Wonderful and macabre stuff, this. Cody Drasser

Distant Past Spirituality
by Torus Dome

supported by 6 fans who also own “Gnosis”

Subdued yet commanding with a well-honed sound palette comprised of pressurized atmospherics, massive undercurrents of bass, sparse martial rhythms, and a combination of glacial and grinding synth work. I've been fascinated with the music of Torus Dome for the last year. It took me a little while to fully appreciate the magnitude of these dooming meditations. Lost Tribe Sound
