Sergey Kolesnikov - Early Dreams

Record: 2011-2012 • Edition: 2014 • USC-WR-1408.0212
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School

Such a long history of mankind, numbering tens of millennia, is dappled with white specks of obscurity. We know only scattered episodes from life of the ancient ancestors, which they tried to transmit to next generations as much as possible. Great volume of knowledge is lost, destroyed or kept back by destructive progress, aiming to the future like an arrow without looking back, while the past is being covered by sands of time, and myths and legends come to surrogate invaluable traditions. We can only guess, how the ancient looked at natural phenomena, which thoughts and conceptions emerged in their mind. Most likely they comprehended things even better than we do in our dashing time, as they had a whole eternity for thinking and observation. Crumbs of knowledge, conjectures and speculations, which were able to collect, are expressed here by traditional electronic music in the Berlin school style.

Lost Radiance - Upon Us

Record: 2014 • Edition: 2014 • USC-WR-1407.0210
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School, Space Ambient

Look around - and you will see the endless majesty of cosmos, a myriad of stars, whose light goes hundreds, thousands, millions and billions years. What keeps us from reaching them? Damned relativity! But there is a way to overcome it! In the beginning there were only thoughts, concepts. Alcubierre drive, Krasnikov tube. There only one challenge remains: generation of matter with negative density of energy - and forward, to the stars! There, where new life, new intelligence, new destination await! So far, these are only dreams... It is necessary to develop a theory. It is necessary to fund the experiments. Begin constructing devices unseen ever before. All this is for the flight to a distant planet. And lo, a massive complex is being built gradually. A spaceship with a strange structure is being designed. Finally everything's ready! Starship is ready for the first leap. Distance ahead, unexplored before, in some three light years (come to think of it that we may already say: "some three light years"!). Attention! Start! The leap is performed flawlessly. After a few weeks ship comes back with detailed snapshots of the nearest star - Proxima Centauri. This event is celebrated all over the globe. A hope is born, that there will be no need to slice and torture the planet tired of mankind. Finally there'll be enough place for everybody - after all the Universe has no boundaries.

Vortex Mechanic - At the Edge of Solar System

Record: 2014 • Edition: 2014 • USC-WR-1404.0205
Traditional Electronic, Psy-Ambient, Space

Solar system is a giant cosmic city. The planets, warmed with heat near the Sun, chase each other, while on the edge of the Solar system, where cold reigns, frozen worlds live their mysterious life in unhurried motion. Here, on the boundary, the Sun is so far, that it can hardly be found among billions of alien stars in the sky. Anxious darkness enchants, and so near extrasolar space is beckoning. And still we are under protection of the gravity of our star. One little step is enough to leave our home. And there... And there are scaring infinity and emptiness full of dangers there. Let's stay here, on the very frontier, and enjoy mysteriousness and majesty of the borderline of presence of our Sun.

Vortex Mechanic - Etherwind

Record: 2013-2014 • Edition: 2014 • USC-WR-1402.0203
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School, Psy-Ambient

The long road of learning is strewn with obstacles and provides many enticing detours that seem quite reliable, however, eventually lead to a dead end. Sometimes you have to stop and return to what once was unfairly rejected. And here we are again where we started, therefore we have to blaze a new path... We must gain the courage to recognize that many modern concepts - err, and to pull out of the dark closet forbidden knowledge. We must cease inventing the false postulates and deduce from them theories intractable for the mind. We must sweep aside the abstractness of thinking and realize that lack of understanding of the essence of things - not our inability to interpret them, but merely the wrong approach. It is time to open your mind and accept - Ether!

WMRI - New Axis of Turning

Record: 2012 • Edition: 2013 • USC-WR-1312.0200
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School, Experimental

We are used to perceive the world as we see and feel it. This is called reality, at least for most. But the search for new territories of perception never ends. What if there's another reality that we can't sense, because of our limited perception of the Universe? Another dimensions that exist in parallel to ours, superimpose each other like the layers of a multilayer cake. It is quite possible that they are out of reach, and we can only guess that they occur, at best feel some illusive emanation of other world. Who knows...

Quantum Mechanics - Long Way to Nowhere

Record: 2013 • Edition: 2013 • USC-WR-1312.0196
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School

This is an expression of desire to learn the ideas of modern theoretical physics and natural sciences as a whole. This is a view from the side at what is happening with science and human thought. This is a search of something, not simply imperceptible and being beyond understanding, but such that could explain causation of everything. New interpretation of paths followed by the modern physics, redefinition of the universal laws and doubts which are reinforced by the new revolutionary movements in science, lead to thought that all the tangled trails of research, by and large, - just a long way to nowhere.

WMRI - The Source of Universal Energy

Record: 2008-2010 • Edition: 2013 • USC-WR-1311.0190
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School

The search for energy is vital question of human existence, because he is highly dependent on it in modern life; the need is growing, while resources are drying up faster and faster. There is a fragile hope on space resources, but this is not a cheap gamble, full of risk, requiring large attachment of knowledge and being fraught with deep reefs, but in the end this also demands exorbitant resources. But some scientists dream of an infinite energy source and even claim that it exists. The invisible ether around is the base of everything in the Universe and the miraculous perpetuum mobile that contains whole energy, essentially it is the cause and the primary source of everything.

Exalot - Cosmic Voyager

Record: 2004-2013 • Edition: 2013 • USC-WR-1311.0188
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School

Step into the world of far-away stars and immerse yourself into darkness of cosmic depths on a spaceship with non-technogenic design. Find yourself in distant future and look at the beauty of our own Milky Way with the eyes of a human and aliens' union. Death cannot stop life in these infinite spaces.

Record: 2011-2012 • Edition: 2013 • USC-WR-1311.0185
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School

One very mysterious sequence. Does anyone know what it is? Is it something regarding quantum theories or... just a piece of a beautiful sequencer music?

Traditional Electronic, Berlin School

There are mysterious places out of this world. They may even be possible, though are created by our imagination. They are too abstract and ethereal, constantly transforming and never stay the same, but their main idea is caught in this musical sketches.

Quantum Mechanics - Waves, Fields & Particles

Record: 2011 • Edition: 2013 • USC-WR-1309.0176
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School

Quantum mechanics is not simply a branch of physics or some direction in science. Quantum mechanics is a very different conception on the reality around us and about our place in the world. To understand what it means, here is an example of such idea: if two interrelated electron are divided by space as big as the universe, and we affect one of them, the second electron instantly react to changes with the first. This is not a signal between them - it is the relationship as a single whole system. If we bear in mind that the universe came from the one Big Bang, then reality surrounding us is a single entity, and everything we perceive is the design of this whole.

WMRI - Tenth Anniversary

Record: 2003-2013 • Edition: 2013 • USC-WR-1309.0175
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School

Traditional electronic music - a genre that will never be popular. It is too romantic and not the story of the household chores, too tactful and do not impose itself on the listener. There are always a bit of composers who are ready to give up their claims to the easily achievable popularity in the name of intelligent romance - it's usually home musicians who work for the pleasure, if not into the desk drawer - and in our time in Russia there are only a few of them. This year, one of those few projects - WMRI - celebrates its 10th anniversary.

Traditional Electronic, Berlin School

Dreams emerge out of our experiences and deepest wishes. Some of them can be implemented, for they are simple - inspired by the daily need. Another ones are impossible in reality, made of fragile materia, often reside to dreamers. They are very affected to outer influences, that can hurt or distort. So please, don't interfere another's dreams - just try to understand and share them.

Conspiracy Foundation - Grand Rewinding Time

Record: 2009-2011 • Edition: 2013 • USC-WR-1305.0161
Traditional Electronic, Berlin School, Lounge

You may interpret this work as a sort of observation logs of interesting phenomena and events, whether gaze into the mysterious distance or a careful examination of the near field. As it was conceived, the consolidated result is based on harmonically evolving images cross-fading with each other. Several different sketches bridged together sound very alluring, inventive, stylish, sometimes queer and never boring.

Traditional Electronic, Berlin School

We've collected some mysteries. We can't reveal them, just show. After all sometimes only the intuition is able to bring success where the mind is powerless, and the scientific knowledge turns into bewitching mystery.
