Surreal, mysterious and poetic is how one could define the work of Danish musician and collage artist Paw Grabowski. His latest album “Without Blood The Sun Darkens” exudes feelings of the simplicity of being present, in the absence of absolute existence, pervaded by memories, moods and emotions, neither sad nor happy, fulfilled. It is about watching time, from faded memories of ones childhood to that feeling just before laying down between wanderings and stillness, looking at the darkening room just before you disperse and disappear completely into nothingness. Soothing and engulfing melodies that seems to repeat yet always evolving, a profound venture through melancholy.

My personal favorite of the Lovecraft series. This piece feels so calm, eerie, and mysterious. The slight plucking of strings is off set by the ritual drums and consistent reverb. Amazing combination! theeverwanderer

Brings back a lot of personal track writing memories, does track one. Amazing music by ojerum. "Don't Worry Mother" is dark without even trying to be, the best kind of writer catharsis for an artist like ojerum. Mick Buckingham (Muttley SV)
In the music of Paul Jordan, digitally manipulated field recordings become striking electronic songs that feel eerie and surreal. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 7, 2020
Moody dark ambient from Dahlia’s Tear, the expansive sounds on “Through the Nightfall Grandeur” are as melancholy as they are unsettling. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 16, 2018
Serene ambient music that evokes guided meditation through the use of phase-shifting melodies, droning bass, and gauzy synth textures. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 8, 2024

Wow. Now & then a "dark ambient" album comes by that instantly captures your imagination totally. For example: Lustmord's Black Stars, Time Machines' eponymous album, and this. There's something literally magical about this, when I listen to it, I feel like I've been placed under some kind of spell, it grabs & holds you from start to end. Maybe it's something about the melancholic, mysterious chordal modes, maybe how the music flows over you & envelopes you in its dark, warm embrace. Spooky! Daniel Ruben
