"Imagine yourself having the chance to take a ride in Richard Buckminster-Fuller´s fully developed Dymaxion-car and float ergonomically and ecologically through every imaginable landscape. What music would you like to hear in it? This was the question i asked myself one day and these 4 tracks are the answer to it.

"Reinvention of the Sacred" is a musical consideration of the after-effects of the 'god is dead' idea on Western society. Nothing has replaced the ideals represented in the best of spiritual thought, and our behaviours have changed as a result. For some, there is no longer any reason to behave in an ethical manner, nothing to live up to. The vacuum left by the decline in the perceived importance of the spiritual search calls for a reevaluation of what has meaning, what is important....

"The underwater fires" is a conceptual EP, revolving all around Autonomaton's love for the underwater life and rivers, seas, oceans and aquariums. That's a passion shared with the Mahorka boss Ivo Petrov, so you can guess that this release has been long time coming. In the tracks one can hear actual sounds from real fish (not mammals) captured and presented in very experimental ways. All tunes were produced on a computer but analogue equipment such as a Korg and a 303 machine were...

"Finally Infinite" is a the long due brilliant comeback album from Austin Brooks a.k.a. Sevensy after his now considered a classic debut "Beacon", released to much acclaim way back in 2007. While he has stayed busy recording and producing music throughout the years and we have kept compilation tracks, remixes and collaborations coming out in the in-between decade, this outstanding new full-lenth release on Mahorka surely is to bring a much deserved exclusive focus on...

Yourai's third release on Mahorka (after his debut "Unicorn's Peacock EP" and the magnificent album "Shadhavar" ) is the result of the work, passion and love for music of quite some people involved. The single "My heart is so loud" preparation took more time than was expected, and even when everything was finished and arranged some issues shelved it for some months more, but, for sure, it is worth the wait! Now you have nearly one hour of music, most of which based...

"Suoni Olofonici" is the new realization of Strepitvsitvs and the long-awaited and discussed debut release on Mahorka for the duo. The album is meant to be a sort of inner self-reflection as well as a very personal study about environmental connections between people and places. The focus is set on the Montello hill, near the Piave river, pretty close to their hometown. It's a really peculiar site, where nature, history, legends, and mysteries are all mixed up together in a unique...

“We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep.” ― William James Deffektegg is a cold hand reaching through the black and morphing surface of the sea, which is exactly where Weightless emerged from. Mostly built on deep and thick drones, but sometimes crushed by distortion and swallowed in the abrasive and distant voices of drowned souls, Weightless is hypnotizing like the songs of hundred sirens, but carries endless grief for all lives, forever lost...

Adrian Juarez, maybe the most active artist on Mahorka (and certainly one of the most active in the contemporary music) did his second take twisting the Mahorka back catalogue through his artistic view. The result is third in the series "Mahorka Remixed" (the first volume being by Adrian too!). On this another 16 tracks he worked on/with he has taken a more beaty and melody oriented way, compared to the more ambient sound of last time. Again we have is decision of exactly 2 minute...

shadhavar, an album written, composed and performed by yourai represents his first multitrack record made exlusively for mahorka. „again, refusing to ask the electronic machines for help, yourai sets his lands of vocal expressions between rhythm pleasure and raw experimantation, influenced by throat singers, freak hop and holy minimalism. the concept of shadhavar is coded in a story hidden in the verses of inunderstandable lyrics and vocal audio soundscapes. it is a drawing of a specific...

"'Beacon' comprises works from 2002 to 2003 that are intended to bridge the space between mechanism and music, hypnotic repetition and melody. At first a spacious setting is created in "greeting" and "moon arch" but soon the mechanical is met head-on in "emergency inspection," "children of the deep" and "greppling." Calm waves of melody in "polynesian sunset" are firmly counterpoised by fuzzy repetition in "beacon,"...

These works lay on the verge of the audible from their conception till their completion. Not furiously silent but still silent enough to make the act of listening a part of the work itself. Controlled feedback is the main expressive mechanism here. Microphone placement, processing of the feedback path and occasional faint non-musical sounds as feedback catalysts or inhibitors play role in the process. Working at extremely low overall levels adds the benefit of introducing the recording...

Méta - Forma meta - from greek - beyond forma - from latin - shape Metaforma is an attempt to go beyond the familiar and overwhelming musical forms. It is the outcome of a straight, primordial and creative journey, where natural and artificial sounds, human and machine noises, memories from the past and visions of the future overlap, and all these elements are blended in a meditative and hypnotic flux of sounds. Metaforma represents the call to go beyond the first layer of shape and texture,...

This project is Amotken's second release on Mahorka and contains 3 pieces that pretend to talk about the process of life: being born, getting old and dying, represented with the process of the day - dawn, dusk and night. The compositions are accompanied by 3 corresponding graphic symbols, created by the artist Quetzalo Coatl. The combination of them three is the symbol on the cover...

" The Chromium Gate is a cycle of songs describing one persons vigil outside a gate on an alien world. Partly inspired by Kafkas parable "before the law" the album imagines what one might have observed in a lifetime spent waiting for such a door to open. Imagine staring up at the sky watching the movement of clouds, or tracking the root growth of strange trees. I had hoped to express a kind of lifelong epiphany, beginning with confusion and ending with acceptance." -- Kevin...
