about

Mathias Grassow & Heikki Lindgren present their collaborative album "Shallow Waters" on Signature Dark. The album is dedicated to the fascinating and historic landscape and the special flair of the Baltic Sea, which for centuries have been the connecting element of their native Germany and Finland. Grassow and Lindgren dive deep into the realm of drone ambient, combining archaic instruments of Finnish Kalevala tradition with electronics and contemporary synthesis creating totally new soundscapes.

Best known for his long, dark ambient albums, Mathias Grassow has established himself as one of the cornerstones of present-day drone artists. Active since 1980, he has released over 200 albums and collaborated with other great names such as Alio Die, Klaus Wiese and Oöphoi. Even with the enormous amount of albums released, he keeps reaching for the unknown, recreating his music continuously.

In the ongoing experimentations of long sound, Heikki Lindgren creates soundscapes diving into archaic aesthetics. Overtone flutes, bowed lyre, and other instruments of Kalevala tradition find common ground with the electronic music production methods and field recordings.

Melancholic. Dark. Cinematic.

Signature Dark is a novel musical concept which runs the gamut of vivid and atmospheric soundscapes from ambient to drone, dark jazz, dub, and experimental music. Occasionally, the sound will even be flipped into minimalistic techno and jungle territory.
