Death ambient: Lucaslavia operates on the outer rings of metal, melting its constituent elements into vicious torrents of fury. Furnace resembles a field recording from the sixth circle of hell. Despite its deceptively calm initial form, ancient hatreds seem to rage in violent currents just below the leaden surface. Disembodied voices range from whispered malediction to screams of utmost anger, stretched into purgatorial eternities. Gargantuan sonic fortification walls composed of drums, ripping sheets of distorted guitar, hissing residue of steel and stone blasted apart build threatening levels of intensity. The only deceptive respite comes from what appears to be the faint mechanical creaking emanating from the inexorable and towering installations found in the engine rooms of boundless pain. Lucaslavia was written and produced by Stefan Goldmann. Stefan Goldmann has performed electronic music in 45 countries across six continents, with formats ranging from DJ sets to a four-hour opera with ensemble and a room-spanning installation. He has developed special formats for Berghain in Berlin, LACMA in Los Angeles and Kyoto's Honen-in Temple and is currently artistic director of the Berlin Philharmonic's Strom Festival. Mastered by Rashad Becker.
