More Info

Croatian artist Jurica Santek (Nox, Aegri Somnia, Efil) returns to our Winter-Light label with his second full length album 'Abyssal Codex'.

'Abyssal Codex' follows in the footsteps of his previous 'Opus Unending' album, released via our Winter-Light label. This is traditional dark ambient, with the focus still aimed on low, sub tones, edged with industrial and horror recordings. The music is still downtune and lo-fi, interspersed with harsh sounds and natural elements.

'The main focus is on dark, isolationist soundscapes but also as music without distraction, that can be used as a background meditative for various purposes. The aim is to reach a fluid dark atmosphere that is pleasant and meditational to listen to, but that is also having dark and unnerving moments.'

The album was recorded between 2021/2022.

Field recordings were taken from Krapina/Opatija/Čakovec, Croatia.

All tracks written, produced and recorded by Jurica Santek.

The album has been mastered by Cruel Sound Works.
