Vidna Obmana
Near the Flogging Landscape


Can a landscape flog? Maybe in Belgium, where Dirk Serries (a.k.a. Vidna Obmana) is from. Good thing he doesn't write lyrics.

This is the first disc from the Memories Compiled 2 set, an archival release from Obmana's early days as a composer of floating ambient soundscapes. It's very soothing, but in a dark and melancholy way. Glumbient music, if you will. Blue Age. OK, I'll stop now.

70:22 Various artists, Letters from the Front
