is the eighth DiN compilation album and includes two tracks each from
the titles
DiN71 - 79. The artists on show this time are Polypores,
Scanner, Ian Boddy, d’Voxx,
Parallel Worlds, Surface 10, Node and
Lyonel Bauchet as well as a collaboration between
Ian Boddy & Erik
Wøllo.
As with the previous seven DiN samplers label boss Ian Boddy has mixed and cross-faded the 18 tracks into a continuous ambient mix that not only showcases the albums featured on the release but presents an exciting and varied title in its own right. It also highlights the varied and intriguing music that the DiN label offers on its releases from deep analogue synth grooves through vibrantly melodic instrumentals to powerful, epic ambient atmospheres. An intoxicating mix of the old and new beautifully presented in a slimline cardboard wallet with an extra flap which just adds to the value and collectibility of this release.
With a total release catalogue now of 118 titles the DiN label is continuing to innovate and evolve as it heads toward 2024 when it will celebrate 25 years of releasing quality instrumental electronic and ambient synth music.

Liminal
spaces refer to transitional or in-between areas that exist on the
threshold between two distinct states or environments. These spaces are
characterized by ambiguity, uncertainty, and a sense of being neither
here nor there. Liminality can be experienced physically, such as in
doorways, corridors, or airports, as well as psychologically, in moments
of transition or transformation. The concept of liminality was
originally developed by anthropologist Arnold van Gennep and later
expanded upon by anthropologist Victor Turner. They used it to describe
the middle stage of a rite of passage, where individuals are neither
fully part of their old identity nor fully integrated into their new
identity. However, the concept of liminality has since been applied more
broadly to various aspects of human experience, including physical
spaces. Liminal spaces often evoke a sense of unease or strangeness in
people. This feeling can be attributed to the psychological phenomenon
known as the uncanny. The uncanny refers to something that is familiar
yet strange, ordinary yet unsettling. It is a state of cognitive
dissonance that arises when we encounter something that challenges our
expectations or blurs the boundaries between the known and the unknown.
In liminal spaces, the uncanny can manifest in different ways. The
ambiguity of these spaces can
create a sense of disorientation and make us question our perceptions.
The absence of clear markers or familiar cues can lead to a feeling of
being lost or disconnected. Additionally, the transitory nature of
liminal spaces can evoke a sense of anticipation or suspense, as we
await what lies ahead or reflect on what we have left behind.
Vyormouth music is a clear manifestation of music as representation of liminal spaces, both physical as well as psychological. Listening to the long tracks of the album “Liminal Spaces” we experience a state of mental disorientation in which our brain not only perceives the ambiguity of slow transitions and potential eerie apparitions, but also reflects about our own identity as part of an uncertain reality. ZeroK is proud to present the mysterious and unsettling debut album of Vyormouth.
