Synthetic Works

Merankorii is back with a new album: Synthetic Works.

Synthetic Works

An experimental sound study about - you guessed it - synthetic works, this limited edition CD release joins two Portuguese one-man-bands, Merankorii and Hulduefni, in a 15 tracks album of original work.

Merankorii fans, specially attendees from Merankorii's concerts, will be happy to know that this is the release that will show you the studio work around the songs I've been presenting live. To satisfy your appetite, here are two videos, the first from one of Hulduefni's tracks on the album, and the other a video from Merankorii live, playing some of the tracks you'll be able to listen on this album.


This album is available from "Dark Matter Records", the record label releasing it, for 7.50€ (plus shipping costs), and it is a 20 copies limited edition, so act fast before they're all sold out!

New album: Rather Than Bored

After a lot of teasing and letting some information slip, it is now, finally, the moment to announce it: Merankorii has been hardly working for two years to produce what now is "Rather Than Bored", a conceptually closed album that marks a (big) change on what Merankorii is.

I'm really happy with the result, and with the fact that, for the first time, Merankorii will be released on vinyl. The album comes both as a Vinyl LP and a CD, so if you're not really a fan of vinyl (or don't have a record player) you can still enjoy this album.

The details:
Format: LP (Vinyl + CD)
Label: Noori Records, NR021
Edition: Limited to 11 copies
Price: 25€

The first eight orders will also receive extra items hand painted by Merankorii with paintings allusive to the album’s theme, each of them unique.

If you missed it, here’s a small teaser made for this release:

Leroi

Witte Dood is a sub-label of Svartgalgh Records, focusing on dark music of nearly any kind. Founded in 2009, its releases are much more DIY than those of the latter. Home-printed artwork in a thin plastic sleeve, 3”CDR discs only. Nothing fancy, just great music. And because of the simple, yet nice packaging, they are able to keep the prices low: only € 2,00 each (excl. p&p).

From their first day I knew I had to release something on this label - their concept is... defying. Let me explain: every release of them is a single, one track with 333, 666, 999 or 1332 seconds long (exactly - so 5:33, 11:06, 16:39 or 22:12).

And so... this happened:

WIT030 Merankorii - Leroi (1332 secs)
"Horror soundtrack from Portugal. Like the infamous and god-like Goblin."

Sanguine

Nothing is way too complex, and I never found something as complex as the human mind. But one thing is to understand something complex, the other is de-compexing it in order to transmit it - and that's the rational meaning behind Merankorii's minimalism.


As I've told you before, "Sanguine", a split with Bardic Wisdom, is going to be released in both Cassete and CD-R.

This release is limited to 50 Cassete copies and 50 CD-R's, and is going to see the light of day at the 15th of May, in 12 days! Keep updated...

"Melencolia III" is OUT NOW!

"Melencolia III", the third Merankorii album is OUT NOW!


With a title that shows the inspiration with Dürer's work, Melencolia III, the third Merankorii album, was released today, and, with all the pre-orders that were made (if you're one of those who pre-ordered it, you're going to recieve your copy soon, probably today), more than twenty are already sold.

Many would deverve a big THANK YOU for being who they are and doing what they do, but all of those that helped me to create this album probably know that they are a part of it, so, instead of telling names, I'm just saying: "Thank You".

I have to make an exception to Nekrogoat Heresy Productions' crew, for believing in my work and, by making this their first release, making all this possible.
