about

" It amalgamates the pointed impressionism of Drone with the dehumanization of Industrial, the raw emotion of Shoegaze and the expressionism of Jazz."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aidan Baker is a classically-trained multi-instrumentalist from Toronto (now resident in Berlin) with the electric guitar his primary instrument. Using prepared and alternate methods of playing the guitar, along with various electronic effects, Baker creates music which generally falls within the ambient/experimental genre but draws on influences from rock, electronic, classical, and jazz. A highly prolific artist, Baker has released numerous recorded works, both solo and with various group projects, including Nadja, Hypnodrone, ARC, Caudal and Mnemosyne.

The third solo album Aidan has released on Cruel Nature, "Everything" works well as a bridge between the free-form jazz ambience of "Stimmt" (2021) and the bass-heavy fuzz of "Tenebrist" (2022). It's still heavy on the low end but with added shoegaze/noise-rock ambient ethereal atmospherics.

Labyrinthine

Since this came out a year and five days ago it has slowly become my favourite Nadja album, even after Touched, Dagdröm, Radiance of Shadows and The Stone is Not Hit by the Sun.... An absolute masterpiece. Nadja may not be the most well known drone-doom band in the world, but I am sure future generations will very much appreciate this band all the more. leonhardrotiver

Wow! Sounds like peak Nadja rather than an amalgam of these two stellar musical visionaries solo works. Essential, beautiful and surprising. babykali

I'm still getting through this multi-genre whopper compilation. It covers so many genres - all of which I like. It was expertly compiled and gives a great sense and overview of the labels releases. PadraigC
