Welcome to your Sunday surprise!

New release from Phillips/Penland/Donne

Guess what. A new release just dropped!
Somnimage is proud to present Phillips/Penland/Donne - Range of Devotion

Two synths and archaic software flesh out the occult machines behind Range of Devotion, behind which Tomas Phillips, Tannon Penland, and Robert Donne press the keys that sound.

What is devotion in art and music? From what impulse does it emerge? Who or what do we worship? Each track tests these questions with disquieting, echoing resonance.

Tomas migrates between minimalist and metal soundworlds, having released music on such labels as Line Imprint and Trente Oiseaux and contributed to Southern Lord bands Loincloth and Leather Hearse, of which Tannon has been a principal writer.
He and Tomas also constitute the core of avant-metal project Gauchiste. Robert has played with Labradford, Pan American, and Anjou, among others, and has scored numerous films, including 2018's The Mountain.

The new Ümlaut album “Penumbra” is out now!

https://somnimage.bandcamp.com/album/penumbra

The new album by Ümlaut, called “Penumbra,” is a natural extension of his most recent album, “The distance between two points.” In the former, listeners are taken on a planetary voyage through infinite space. With “Penumbra,” listeners are invited to sonically absorb the phenomenon of a partial eclipse — when the alignment of the sun, moon and earth cause an occluding body to obscure a fragment of a light source.

Continued experimentation with tape loops, field recordings and synthesizers create new abstract soundscapes, which explore the regions of the umbra. Shadows are partial and imperfect. Imperfections brought to the forefront of the compositions simultaneously expose their shadow sides.

Music composed & constructed by Jeff Düngfelder
Mixed & Mastered at the Hopmeadow Studio, Weatogue, Connecticut

This is our 18th show for CAMP Radio.
This show features our 2nd commission for radio. Nicholas Maloney’s Blanket Swimming project is one of our favorites. We commissioned Nicholas to create an exclusive composition for morphological echo. The resulting track titled Utuana's Spiral is a perfect example of this prolific artist's mastery of drone, field recordings and ambience. You can dig deeper into their world at
