I got this CD as a trade item. Never heard of Karsten Hamre before (he`s from Norway and is a prolific artist). There`s seven tracks with a good running time of 51.39 minutes. I look at the cover and I`m thinking that this album could be punk, noise or probably some type of boring new age gothic crap. Appearances are deceiving indeed. It turns out that this is extremely well crafted music. The pieces are organic, brooding, sometimes atmospheric (dark soundscapes included), gloomy ambient electronics with soundtrack qualities. I am highly impressed. This is good really good. I would mix every song on this here CD with a segment from a movie. Then again, why not? Here goes:
A – abandoned glory: Maniac (1980) = the scene where the girl gets offed in the subway station.
B – fortuna synapsis: the Ninth Gate (1999) = the end credits.
C – the black waves: The Thing (1982) = when they discover the spaceship buried in the snow.
D – enshrouded lands: The Silence Of The Lambs (1991) = when FBI cadet Clarice Starling meets Dr Hannibal Lecter in prison (the first time).
E – an ominous serenade: The Tenant (1976) = before every creepy scene (there`s lots of them) in this movie.
F – dioxide universal: The Day The Earth Stood Still (1951) = the spaceship lands, and we see Klaatu and Gort slowly coming out.
G – when darkness falls: Revenant (2012) = Paul`s first encounter with the ghost which haunts the house.
