The first Monokit album called 'Monolyth' was just released by the Nishi netlabel!
The style is what we call 'dark, twisted ambient and sound sculptures'. Nishi describes it as follows: Dutch/German duo Monokit offer up an album of compact emotional atmospheres. Monolyth allows you to explore 17 landscapes, ranging from the comforting to the unfaimilar to the downright unsettling, and still be back home within the hour. CDBaby reviews it as: Dark twisted ambient, drones, chill out IDM, soundtrack, all in a very organic deep mix, that sounds very strange and not from this world.
The creation of Monolyth took a long time, and a lot of different instruments were used, including the Andromeda and MOTM analog synths, the VSynth, NL3, Q and NordMod digital synths, Repeater loops, the RS7000 workstation and even some processed guitar parts.
The album is available as a free (!) download from our Nishi page:

Those looking for better audio quality with more dynamics, and nice crossfades between many of the tracks, Monolyth is also available as an audio cdrom from CDBaby:
