about

"A series of works focused on deconstruction and Decoding the Fever Nightmare."

This is a concept album based on a classic recurring dream children often experience during a fever.

Acute febrile delirium manifests as a true exogenous psychosis in various organic, infectious, or toxic diseases. It is characterized by disturbances of consciousness, including mental confusion, clouding of awareness, an oneiric state, spatio temporal disorientation, hallucinations— primarily visual— and hyperthermia. I had this dream perpetually for years throughout my adolescence. It was the quintessential fever-dream nightmare.

In the album, the sensation is this: at times, you'll be strongly exposed to an oneiric, surreal wind, with its sonic debris; at other times, you'll feel safe and sheltered. This is a work that should be listened to in one breath and in its entirety.

When I began working on this album, I didn't have a specific meaning in mind; it was more of an experiment, an intuitive flow of sounds and ideas. However, after putting it aside and ;
listening to it again later, I realized it evoked those same strange
sensations I thought I had forgotten. It was as if the work had unconsciously emerged from that deep place within me, the same one that had shaped those experiences.

It was surprising to discover how, without any initial intention, the album became an emotional reflection of a past that still resonates

Atlas
by Laurel Halo

supported by 6 fans who also own “Brain Recordings”

A string section warms up with John Adams or Phillip Glass on their minds in an empty theatre two hundred years ago. A forlorn piano remembers something in an ancient, long-forgotten hotel lobby. Somebody plays standup bass in the dark, in a sunken vessel at the bottom of the ocean. An orchestra scores a desperate, wintery Scandinavian shoreline for no-one to hear. There's something hopeful in desolate and unheard things, because they can be beautiful without human commentary. albinobone
