The Madness that Lurks Within

by Scott Lawlor & Rebekkah Hilgraves

supported by

Duff Egan loving the darker sound from the Silas/Lawlor ambient crew lately! A really creative conceptual approach as well, nice work.

Brian Bourassa The drone works exceptionally well at intensifying the suspense between the lapses in narration, aiding you in your imagination of what will happen next. But what does happen next always seems to be farther out than you could have dreamed up.

G M Slater This extremely compelling and thought provoking album is like a documentary for the mind. Beautifully dark, powerful and addictive - it draws you in and won't let you go until you have followed its story to its chilling and troubling end.

about

NOTE: This album is not for the timid, you have been warned.

Aural Films is thrilled to bring you a new release titled "The Madness that Lurks Within" by Scott Lawlor & Rebekkah Hilgraves. This dark ambient concept album inspired by a documentary on the Russian Sleep Experiment story. Joins the sonic forces of Scott's dronescapes with the engaging voice of Rebekkah Hilgraves to take us on a darkly exotic journey into extreme horror.

Scott describes how the album came about:

This dark ambient concept album was inspired by something that my son showed me on youtube called the Russian sleep experiment.

After hearing this narration of the story, I got inspired to write a track based on the events described and wanted to make something much darker and creepier than the original narration that I first heard.

I went on a search for sounds that I felt would fit the project nicely, ran a lot of them through delays as well as other effects to provide the desired audio experience for the listener and I had more fun putting together this concept album more than any others that I've done.

I asked Rebekkah Hilgraves to read the piece for my interpretation and her narration is outstanding so I'd like to thank her for a job well done.
