A singular work of deep sonic exploration returns, now unveiled in a definitive vinyl edition.
Originally released in 2017 as the second chapter following "De Aeris In Sublunaria Influxu" (2015), the collaborative opus by Germany’s Troum and Sweden’s raison d’être now resurfaces on vinyl, expanded with two previously unreleased bonus tracks. This edition completes and deepens a project that stands among the most immersive cross-border alliances in the dark ambient sphere.
Rooted in a philosophical reflection inspired by the Amazonian Pirahã tribe, the album unfolds as an excursion into nine distinct micro-worlds of perception and consciousness. Each movement exists as a self-contained inner landscape, fragile and fleeting, reaching toward the eternal yet anchored entirely in the present moment. It is music that dissolves linear time, inviting the listener into a state where sound becomes awareness itself.
The foundation of the work draws from sound sources by raison d’être, recorded and transformed by Troum between 2013 and 2017. These materials were deranged, reframed, morphed and reimagined into new forms, layered with additional instrumentation recorded by Troum, including guitars, voices, flutes, accordion, cello, violin, didgeridoo, dombra, tapes and found sounds. The final mix was completed by Troum, preserving the organic tension between dissolution and structure.
Mastered at K-14 level by Peter Andersson, the vinyl edition offers enhanced dynamic depth and spatial presence, capturing subtle textures and low-frequency resonance with exceptional clarity. The physical format emphasizes the tactile and ritualistic dimension of the listening experience, aligning with the album’s contemplative core.
The artwork, designed by Marcin Lojek for Rzpaid design, is complemented by patternal drawings by Bartosz Zaskorski, reinforcing the album’s visual and conceptual coherence.
This vinyl release stands not merely as a reissue, but as a refined embodiment of a collaborative vision, now extended through two additional pieces that expand the original cycle’s meditative arc. This edition represents the definitive form of a unique collaboration between Troum and raison d’être, a work that exists only in the moment it is heard.
