Rocks grind, winds howl, the ocean rages, and the viking violin plays on.
Taking inspiration from Finnish folk tales of giants, Vongoiva composed Jatuli Observatory as she sheltered from a winter storm for five days on Jurmo, a tiny sliver of an island in the Baltic Sea, home to just a dozen people.
Layering windy, violent and ominous oceanic field recordings with his use of the Jouhikko, the viking violin, Vongoiva gifts us with a transformative journey over the seven compositions comprising Jatuli Observatory.
"Jatuli is an old Finnish word and means "giant". There are old rock formations all over Finland which are called giant´s gardens "jatulintarha" which gave inspiration to this album," he explains.
In the eye of a Jurmo storm Vongoiva has conjured a singular version of these mythical gardens from the elements: stone, wind, water.

在80年代末至90年代，英国出现了纯粹以吉他噪音实验为目标的乐队与风格，并且获得了相当大的成功，在英国独立摇滚中可谓独树一帜。敏感的乐评人称这一类音乐风格为“自赏摇滚”（Shoe-gazing）。“自赏摇滚”这一名称很是贴切，既包涵了乐队的音乐风格，又暗示了乐队特立独行的生活态度。 My Bloody Valentine就是这类摇滚的代表人物，Loveless是该乐队的第三张专辑，被公认为是该乐队最成功的代表作，在世界范围内都有巨大影响，这张专辑和乐队名称甚至一起出现在了经典游戏Final FantasyVII的片头CG里。

architect is a hybrid of minimalistic drum'n bass and smooth ambient soundscapes explored by the electronic mastermind daniel meyer.
like a architect who built up his constructions in different layers and channels, also daniel is working with this method by using only sampling tools. he's constructing abstract sonic buildings which seems to be peculiar transparent - like concrete frames without any surfaces in a pleasant familiarity. the cold polyrhythmic drumcodes are bet into a melted ambience of safety and grace. it's the warm timbre of this ambient drum'n bass recording which creates it's own unique sonic profile.
each track on this album was recorded separately in very concentrated periods of creativity and collected since the last 3 years. architect's galactic supermarket is surly a perfect soundtrack for observing the space during the night...
daniel meyer's musical activities begun about 7 years ago with the electro-industrial project haujobb. since the last years daniel became addicted to drum 'n bass, which opened him new views of sonic expressions. this unavoidable important influence allowed him to extend his perception of electronic music to create new dimensions.
daniel started several new projects to present his different faces. together with dejan samardcic he's very active with the project dot's and dashes (on funktion & form, rtd) and haujobb. the project cleen is a collaboration with thorsten meier, n.e.w.t (on flatline records) is created with andreas meyer (forma tadre) and the other projects architect, mayr, s'apex are soloprojects of daniel. although there is always a unique common point of all his projects, each of them explores it's own imaginary universe in it's strongest way.
