Ameel Brecht
BEAST
blickwinkel 20 12.06.2025 Cassette
‘BEAST’, the 4th installment in the series of Ameel Brecht's sleep-inspired compositions is out on June 20, available on limited edition cassette and digital.
As the earlier parts of this series focused primarily on in between phases and manifestations of sleep, this penultimate volume shifts its attention to the absence of sleep.
Without sleep, never resting, never dreaming, what would we experience? A monochrome fever-quality fog, a void of unrealities.
