HALO MANASH, maybe the "main" project of the AURAL HYPNOX-stall, with a new album on this french label; it sounds amazingly harmonic & dense, more "arranged" than before, still there's a wonderful tribal archaic "primitivism" inside the music which feels highly authentic & powerful. Many different instruments have been used, howling voices & whisperings, metals / gongs & percussion-elements are often present, absolutely stunning & hypnotizing! These are pulsating Ur-drones with lots of energy & emotion! On the DVD recordings from a shamanistic ritual held in finnish woods are shown, with different soundtrack. Comes with great gatefold-cover & artwork, plus A2 poster! "HALO MANASH, redrobed and clothed in ash, has a completed a helical cycle, r.A.S.H.n.k.a-RA. Archaic sounds and visions from the heights and depths, elemental ambience and primal thundering. Various instruments such as horns, kanglings, bells, cymbals, drums, singing bowls, damaras, rattles, chimes, bones, selfmade instruments, vocals, voices, and the elemental sounds themselves give form to a work that is sometimes serene, sometimes fierce and chaotic. Everything is in pairs: thus r.A.S.H.n.k.a-RA itself consists of two distinct creations/destructions. "In 4 Elements" (DVD) was realized/received in 4 circulations of the sun and consists of 4 parts. Serpentine silver sounds ascending and descending, moving and flowing in the upper realms, through the elements and elementals. The sounds of spilling seed. The film reflects this rite-of-passage, showing r.A.S.H.n.k.a-RA taking form in the primal landscapes and in the elements themselves. "In PolarDual" (LP) is the dark twin, and was received/realized in 2 circulations of the sun, consisting of two parts. It is very intense, fierce and chaotic: a tearing down, a dive into the deep, screams to and from the depths. The sounds shedding skin. From these twins an elemental initiation and revelation, r.A.S.H.n.k.a-RA, is formed. r.A.S.H.n.k.a-RA is a total creative and destructive cycle, a very real and intense experience where Halo Manash itself was the canvas of birth and death. r.A.S.H.n.k.a-RA was received/realized in Summer 2005; completed and sealed in Winter 2006. The circle is closed, yet remains ever open. Comes in full-colour gatefold LP covers including a DVD (incluing one audio track of 30 minutes) + A2 Color Poster and is limited to 500 copies.
