Ews Nsj snow blows fierce and straight from the north. i am long gone. my spirit tumbles through seasons, traveling in the light of day and night. from the blackest umbra in deepest ocean cavern to brilliant radiations within the fires of any star, i can go anywhere now. twisting with time, this music is the sound of my infinite journey. my thanks for these protective layers

LuganLux Tracks transition from one to the next in a flawless journey. With all that is happening in the world, plugging in daily to decompress and block out toxicity is a "must-have" activity. Beautiful colab from 2 very talented artists. Favorite track: Black Marble.

about

Fragments is the first joint album by Joachim Spieth and Warmth.
It brings together two musical characters with an affinity for expansive, imaginary soundscapes and atmospheric compositions.

Agustin Mena is a Spanish ambient producer and has been operating under his 2 alter egos ‘Warmth’ and ‘SVLBRD’ on the two labels he founded, Archives and Faint. Joachim Spieth has been running the label Affin for almost 2 decades and is a regular contributor to Wolfgang Voigt's Pop Ambient series on the Kompakt label.

The first musical points of contact between the two were in the form of mutual remix projects. This exchange laid the foundation for Fragments, which now reveals the intersections for a sense of space and timelessness. On seven tracks, the album takes the listener on a walk through organic textures and places of longing.


press reactions

“The joint work by Spieth and Mena consists of seven short recordings which, true to their title, seem like fragments of a larger whole. They are an almost benedictine exercise in discrete modulations of minimalist sound.” – Nowamuzyka.pl

“These contradictory associations serve as a fitting introduction for this immersive, spellbinding album of immersive arctic ambient, which is alternately steamy warm and frosty, soft yet cutting, alien yet somehow earthy and organic.” – Micro Genre Music

“The divisions between the tracks become irrelevant when you fully immerse yourself in the album, which begins to permeate your consciousness” – Radioaktiv.it

“There’s a stunning resonance here, and with both playing off each other’s strengths, the results are something beautifully overpowering” – Sun 13
