CuriousCloud Forget sundials and water clocks--THIS is the ultimate time keeping device! Favorite track: HOUR FOUR.

demadde This piece of sonic art has been my soundtrack of the first two weeks of (semi-)shutdown during march 2020. Albeit from 2013 it works as a beautiful soundtrack today on the near deserted streets. Stripped of any unnecessary drama it literaly frames ‘time’ in 24 one hour fragments. By all means read the accurate discription of the project by artist himself. I might try all of it in a single session during 1 natural day.
Chapeau, sir! Favorite track: SEVENTEEN HUNDRED HOURS.

descend and disintegrate descend and disintegrate descend and disintegrate the eternal void explodes into oblivion the suns and moons shatter the horizon the cold waves ebb and flow, ebb and flow in and out in and out in and out in and out an ocean without mercy, a sea of doubt the stars burn an eternal cosmic light no today, future or past or day or night radiate rainbows from shadows of eyes I am the liar, the princess of lies descend and disintegrate descend and disintegrate descend and disintegrate

about

INCOMMENSURABLE MAGNITUDES (СУМЕРЕЧНОЕ СОСТОЯНИЕ СОЗНАНИЯ)

'Incommensurable Magnitudes' is composed of 26 tracks totalling 24 hours in length. Ideally this album would have consisted of 24 tracks each an hour long but due to the limitations of the amount of data that can be uploaded to this download site, each track is 59 minutes long. To complete the full 24 hour cycle, 2 shorter tracks of 12 minutes in length ('Tea Break' and 'Up the Wooden Hill') have been added.

The reason for 'Incommensurable Magnitudes' coming into being is a further extension of my musical research and philosophical musings on concepts of time, already supported and theorised with my '...Through Time' quartet of releases. These notions are my own and are NOT based on any intellectual 'reason', academic discipline or mathematical 'truth'. They are personal experiments with sound, sonic structures and clichés that (for me) represent ideas about time travel, memory, illusions of time, astral travel, oblivion, OOBE, nostalgia, death, space travel, science fiction, science fact, marine biology, delirium, human anatomy, non-existence, sleep, hallucinations, suspended animation, hibernation, black holes, dark matter, vacuums, anti-matter, eternity, infinity and.... beyond.

Releasing the recording in this digital form is the perfect format for the piece to be listened to, utilised, experimented with and enjoyed. 'Incommensurable Magnitudes' can be streamed from your digital player in its entirety from beginning to end with no breaks! It can be played as a purely functional piece of music, to while away the hours as you go about your daily routine... a faint drone in the background or a suffocating, all encompassing sonic assault. Equally it can be utilised as an aid to spend your evenings 'researching' a field of your choosing. The tracks can be played randomly or in order, none of the titles relate to any given time of day. Use, abuse and enjoy the music in any way you see fit and hopefully some of you will take on the marathon challenge of listening to it all in one day, a non-stop cycle of 24 hours.
