DIM (Reissue)

darkcasey What I found was a fun, trippy, lo-fi electronic album, with some catchy melodies and a time-warping feeling of nostalgia. Most of the tracks seem to echo or incorporate the sounds that you hear in previous ones, and this helps build a real feeling of continuity and cohesion. If you like your dark ambient a bit more electronic, a bit more frenetic, and a lot more fuzzy, check out DIM (Reissue). Favorite track: Dimmer.

David Loveless DIM has that old school dark ambient vibe, like you’re listening to a soundtrack to a late 80’s/early 90’s horror movie. The updated re-mastering brings out a more rejuvenated tone to this otherwise near perfect recording! Xerxes The Dark is becoming one of my “go to” artist for when I need my fix of eclectic dark ambient and sonic space soundscapes!! Favorite track: Dim Times.

about

DIM was the first Xerxes The Dark album (as Xerxes). The album produced with the minimum budget possible by Morego Dimmer at DIM*Studio [as he was only a high school student at the time].
DIM originally printed and self-released as CD-R inside Iran and between friends. After a while, DIM released via Amduscias Records (AMR050) and Smell The Stench (sts-net 290) in late 2006.
The original version contains more songs which are not included in this edition. In contrast, the reissue version presents more quality and depth. Remastering has been done wisely to enhance the stereo imaging and improve the overall quality, nevertheless, reissue edition stills minimal, nostalgic and as pure as the original version.
The word "DIM" that appeared on artwork was written by blood (after self mutilation of Morego Dimmer in winter 2005).
