It feels a bit strange to label a record ambient, when the first song is a "full-on-drum-machine-battles-synth-arpeggios" beast. Actually we have to wait until B2 until the beatless beauties take over. I didn't really realized that I ws waiting though. The library stle synth excursions kept me more than entertained!

This record is an absolute monster and the world doesn't care. I've seen this filed under Goth Rock in shops. Maybe that is the problem. If I'd be looking for Goth Rock I'd probably not like this. But I am looking for outsider dance music with an EDGE and that's exactly what Sielwolf offers. If you dig Bourbonese Qualk you'll LOVE this (alone for the Lust For Life drum sample)

Format: 12"
Label: Not On Label

Year: 1983

Condition: VG+/NM

Horribly hard to find minimal synth (not synth). Partly acoustic, experimental and - believe it or not - warm and cold at the same time. This kind of magic you won't find everyday. Also miraculous: the vinyl looks perfect but plays with occasional crackle in the quiet parts. Probably pressing related. People buying ambient music on vinyl in 2022 know the problem... Cleaned rip included.

PS. it's partly utterly sad music. prolly not suitable for depressed humans
