about

With a track-list that reads more like homeware inventory than a typical album, Electromagnetic Houseware Adventures is the 2020 art project of Michael Oscillate that sets out to capture the electromagnetic frequencies of household items, from a vacuum cleaner to a dishwasherand (almost) everything in between, and processes these audible frequencies into a 17-track series of avant-grade musical compositions. Electromagnetic Houseware Adventures is home to both swelling drones and calming pads, and myriad other compelling textures born through this innovative process. Throughout these tracks, from start to finish, are a library of unique sounds unlike many, or any, you’ve heard before. Vacuum cleaner comes in at 43 seconds long with interesting crescendos supported by a deep drone, while Dishwasher–clocking in at almost fourminutes –is the longest track on this project, and achieves its own enveloping atmosphere through more subtle and nuanced sonic textures and fluctuations.

Amongst the Snow and the Shadows
by Noctilucant

supported by 5 fans who also own “Electromagnetic Houseware Adventures”

I find most of Noctilucant's albums to have a great deal of replayability and "Amongst the Snow and the Shadows" is no exception. This is quickly becoming one of my favorites to play on a day off. Textured to perfection and the narration is particularly suitable. I feel the snow and I know the shadows lurk when I listen to this. Mombi Yuleman

Vol.1 Dark Ambient
by This Is Darkness

supported by 5 fans who also own “Electromagnetic Houseware Adventures”

❤️My original plan was to go through and buy individual tracks like I do with most compilation albums, but honestly there are just so many good ones that I wound up buying the whole thing. More than simple drones (though there are plenty of those, too), this album collects many of the best and most innovative dark ambient artists in one place, including many who are new to me. A must-have for any dark ambient fan's collection. Plushie Fanatic
