Hypnotic Dirge Updates and News

PRE-ORDERS AVAILABLE: Omgeving - Wijde Wijdte

November 12, 2018
Pre-orders are now available at Hypnotic Dirge Records for Omgeving's debut album, entitled "Wijde wijdte"



Pre-order CD
Digital / Stream the track “VII - Stille vernietiging”

“Omgeving” is an experimental musical project from Dutch musician Franck Johanson (Distillator) where the listener is meant to interpret the sound as auditory landscapes, every texture part of a broader perception that has been created. The first Omgeving album crosses the boundaries of black metal, space rock, ambient, and doom. It is an entirely instrumental work based on conjuring imagery through soundscapes, through tones and frequencies that transport you through inner and outer space. This album should interest those who enjoy the slow buildup of layers, working with dynamics to build to a hypnotizing crescendo, shifting between subtle ambience to a piercing wall of sound.

“Wijde Wijdte” will be released on a 6 panel digipack format through Hypnotic Dirge Records in December 2018, alongside a 10cm x 10cm sticker of the cover art, designed by Kuba Kujawa

Wijde wijdte Tracklisting:
1 - Ouverture 2015
2 - Zwaartekracht bestaat hier niet
3 - Daar waar de tijd smelt
4 - De zon ontmoet de aarde
5 - Wijde wijdte

Hypnotic Dirge Records turns 10 years old today!

October 21, 2018
In a small, chaotic and unorganized shared apartment ten years ago, I decided to embark on a journey to launch a record label to release music from my project Ancient Tundra and perhaps some other related projects. Never did I imagine that HDR would still be active ten years later nor that we would have the opportunity to release music from the caliber of artists we've worked with over the years!



To mark this occasion, we had plans to print some new Hypnotic Dirge merch, but unfortunately we'r...

ALBUM NEWS: Obsidian Tongue - “A Nest of Ravens in the Throat of Time” to be re-released this winter!

September 28, 2018
Originally released through Hypnotic Dirge in the summer of 2013, Obsidian Tongue's stellar second opus “A Nest of Ravens in the Throat of Time” will finally be repressed again this winter. In what can only be considered a testament to the duo’s power and authenticity, the original pressing sold out within a year, and remained one of Hypnotic Dirge's most defining release.



“A Nest of Ravens in the Throat of Time” is an introspective journey through the collective unconscious of Man a...
