about

Black was conceived and recorded as part of my 2007 experiment to release a musical work every month for as long as possible. Black was May 2007.

The initial conception was for a series of colour-themed noise recordings, Black noise, being a non-scientific designation for silence. As such, I decided to build the album upwards element-by-element, from silence, or at least near-silence. Thematically it also suggested a traditional darkness, a sense of unknown. Thus a great deal of the sound sources here are simple objects, but pitched and affected out of recognition, creating a strange world of sound almost from the perspective of a blind man.

This release also marked a turning point in the Asphixiator project, away from modulated sound sources, and towards more linear composition from multiple elements.

This version was remixed+remastered April 2010 for superior sonics, and should, for the time being, be regarded the definitive edition of this album.
