Nekropolis - "Krypta"


Here is another absolute gem from the dawn of the dark ambient genre. German electronic composer Peter Frohmader's incredible Nekropolis project from 1981 featuring this hauntingly dark, discordant composition.

From Wikipedia:
Some of his music was performed on industrial and domestic tools, as well as on self-made instruments and electronic media. His influence was noted by bands such as The Sisters of Mercy, Throbbing Gristle, and Deine Lakaien, and he became better known in Japan, the U.S. and Britain than in Germany. His music was "characterized by a fondness for the nightmarish and the fantastic."

The original 1981 LP release on which this track is featured, Musik Aus Dem Schattenreich, has gone straight into the Cemetery wantlist and will be on constant rotation throughout the spooky season.

Enjoy!
