latest releases

strange attraction
strange attraction two massive drones which are the result of experiments with chaos and order in their relation to the signature analog sounds the collective is known for. while not pure harsh noise, it sits comfortably in the broader noise / industrial / experimental spectrum. the pieces create strong immersion, tension, and physical pressure while listening.

caught in the vacuum of a forgotten past
caught in the vacuum of a forgotten past this 3" CDr, part of the taalem advent box, refers to the illness known as alzheimer's disease. while medically science is able to prolong life by fixing bodies over and over, the brain is such a delicate thing that it sometimes feels that the person inside a body has already been gone when suffering from this disease. it is one of the most difficult things i now have seen way too often and way too close to me.

introspection
introspection released on raubbau, 'introspection' is the 24th release by the [law-rah] collective, this time martijn and bauke again. every release we change our method to keep things interesting for ourselves. all sounddesign was done by martijn while bauke spent all his time arranging, rearranging and doing post-production on all parts. the result is an intense amalgamation of drone, modern classical, analog and electroacoustic sounds and ideas in three long pieces.
