DIRK SERRIES

FLUCTUATION OF BEING

Belgian experimentalist and ambient veteran Dirk Serries returns to Midira Records with his first solo album in our catalogue, after working together with us quite frequently on collaboration records as Scatterwound, TONUS or the Trio records with Tomas Järmyr & Erik Havnes or Aidan Baker & N.

“Fluctuation Of Being” is the first solo ambient album by Dirk Serries since his critically-acclaimed last solo record “Epitaph” in 2018. The album is a continuation of his trademark “vintage” ambience on the electric guitar, performed and recorded in real-time with the help of a handful of pedal effects.

The album comes in an offset printed 4 panel digisleeve with matte finish and is limited to 250 copies.

Dirk Serries about the album:
“Cycles of tonal phrases, washes of guitar drowned in a vast sea of sustain to create a surreal sonic mood to dwell in on repeat.”

There is nothing more to say about those five perfectly floating and growing guitar drones on “Fluctuation Of Being”.
