Mauve Zone Recordings is pleased to announce the release of Selected Ambient Twerks: A Sypha Nadon Retrospective 2009-2016.
Selected Ambient Twerks: A Sypha Nadon Retrospective 2009-2016 is the second “greatest hits” Sypha Nadon album, a companion album to 2009’s The Nightmare Factory collection. Whereas the former album collected music from the years 2000-2009, this new collection assembles tracks from the years 2009-2016, focusing on the following albums: Our Lady of the Flowers of the Red Night, Orheculegenias, 4NIC8, Litch, Canadian Atheist, and last year’s Monolith. It also includes a new, never-before released track, “A New Circle of Hell,” which was created shortly after the Monolith sessions. Once again, I would like to thank anyone who has listened to and appreciated my work over the last 16 or so years.
As always, the album may be downloaded/listened to for free at the Mauve Zone Recordings' Internet Archive page:

A NEW CIRCLE OF HELL LYRICS
The Moon reveals a gremlin face
That leers at us from outer space
The Sun grows an unblinking eye
That rains destruction from its throne in the sky
CHORUS:
This is not the Earth
This is a new circle of Hell
Circle of Hell
Circle of
This is not the Earth
This is a new circle of Hell
Circle of Hell
Circle of
I can hear the riots in the streets
We realized we’re just dreaming meat
We stepped into the alien’s trap
Now we’re on the brink of a psychic collapse
CHORUS REPEAT
Coming soon: an announcement on MZR038, which will hopefully be available later on this summer.
