Out Now !! TP020 Molnija Aura – Utopian Suns cd
Topheth Prophet proudly presents Molnija Aura’s debut album , Utopian Suns !
“Utopian Suns” is Molnija Aura first full-length album. Recorded and mastered between 2007 and 2009, the CD is inspired by science-fiction themes and space-age relics.
Consisting of six tracks created mostly with analogue and digital synthesizers, the album is a long and engaging journey through sidereal dephts: shrouded in the darkness of immense and untouched vastness, beyond the great unknown, hovering in the void of zero gravity landscapes explored with slow and unreal movements.
The uneasyness of silence and the absolute void of impenetrable gloom, the infinite and overwhelming distances, the fear of solitude and isolation, the anxiety of no return… And then the emotion of discovery: other worlds, unknown universes and impalpable beings, undefined and unidentifiable entities, close encounters, the unutterable and the unthinkable.

Molnija Aura is an electronic ambient/glitch project of Davide Del Col and Andrea Marutti from Milan, Italy.
Davide Del Col started his solo adventure as Ornament in 1999, with the death-industrial oriented “Strychninlovenectar”. His second work entitled “Adorers”, was released shortly after on Oktagön Records.
In 2000 came the self-produced “Unicorn Lullaby” (…re-released later by Afe…), his most oniric and beautiful album, followed by the abysmal “Yzaniaveis” in 2002. Ornament’s latest release entitled “Effortless” was made available in mp3 format. This work represented a return to the project’s harsh roots.
Davide Del Col is now involved in the electro-experimental project Echran along with Fabio Volpi (a member of the Otolab collective) and Accursio Graffeo. Their first album was released by Ebria Records and Smallvoices in 2005, followed by “In Offret” on A Silent Place in 2009. He is also taking care of his cosmic-influenced electronic solo project called O Diabo De Vila Velha.
Andrea Marutti began his experiments with music in the early ’90s. He is better known for his Amon and Never Known projects. He had several releases on Eibon, Nextera, Amplexus, Silentes, Drone, Taâlem, etc.
He is also responsible of many other projects dealing with different styles of electronic music: Lips Vago, Wolkspurz & Ramirez, Spiral, etc. Recently he also started recording and releasing music under his own name, in duo with Nimh as Hall of Mirrors and again in duo with Andrea Ferraris (Ur, Airchamber 3, etc.) as Sil Muir.
During the years he has published on his label – Afe – countless releases of electronic / experimental music created by a lot of italian and international musicians, and collaborated with many musicians including Fausto Balbo, Aidan Baker, Dronaement, Madame P, OvO, Sparkle in Grey, etc.
Molnija Aura trace new and absorbing lines, and set a wider border to that area of electronic music inspired by space exploration, astronomy and science-fiction. “Utopian Suns” is a must for all those interested in Dark Ambient, harmonic resonating drones, eternal reverberating cold soundscapes, and atmospheric dilated sequences.

Mise en scene is Shay Nassi from the city of Tel-Aviv in Israel.
Shay (1977) began to study the art of sound engineering at Jordan Valley College in the north of Israel, where he gained a degree in Practical Sound Engineering.
The skills obtained there are clearly visible in the quality and acoustic depth of his production and sound design.
Shay produces an experimental sound which is built from different layers such as wavetones, noise, field recordings, and live instrument recordings which when manipulated create a cohesive work of minimal, ambient drone sound.
”After building a more than promising career start thanks to a connection with Swiss label leerraum, who published his first two works on multichannel DVDs, Shay Nassi now seems to be headed for wider recognition. Equipped with a style owing as much to the delicate material treatments of minimalism and the lower case movement as it does to the more pensive side of Noise, he has quickly stolen the hearts of all those to whom the former was too academic and the latter appeared overly brute and primitive. Drones and White Noise enter an erotically tinged liasion dangereuse on his tracks, which are marked by a great sense of spatial control, instrumental delicacy and arrangement-related sensibility.”

SEVENTEEN MIGS OF SPRING needs no introduction, their sinister soundscapes are generated in the physical domain, with indistinct noise-making devices, the majority electronic components of their sound are orchestrated by means of banks of inter-connected equipment, when things get hectic the musicians become rather frantically animated in a way that bloke-with-laptop acts never do. Their music leans heavily towards warm, analogue dub trips, punctuated with digital glitchery, tech and IDM influences with an industrial edge. The overall effect is highly competent and pleasingly hypnotic mixture of different, often conflicting cultural, philosophic and music influences. It is hard to categorize and label. It is very different from release to release and every live appearance is unique and never to be repeated performance. Always evolving.
This concert is a start of a new chapter. After completing their experiments with very slow music, they turned their attention to faster and groovier stuff. This time they will use hardware instruments only, no computers. The audience will witness ultra rare if not the very first one in Israel stage appearance of Euro Modular Synthesizer as well as various DIY electronic instruments, made by K-76, Vtol (Russia) and Stupid Design (France).

“… And then had come the scourge, grinning and lethal, from the nightmare caverns of Tartarus. West and I had graduated about the time of its beginning, but had remained for additional work at the summer school, so that we were in Arkham when it broke with full daemoniac fury upon the town. Though not as yet licenced physicians, we now had our degrees, and were pressed frantically into public service as the numbers of the stricken grew. The situation was almost past management, and deaths ensued too frequently for the local undertakers fully to handle. Burials without embalming were made in rapid succession, and even the Christchurch Cemetery receiving tomb was crammed with coffins of the unembalmed dead. This circumstance was not without effect on West, who thought often of the irony of the situation — so many fresh specimens, yet none for his persecuted researches! We were frightfully overworked, and the terrific mental and nervous strain made my friend brood morbidly….”
