UR is the collaboration between Pilgrimage to Pleroma (the solo-project of Mattias M. Van Hulle from Pothamus), Ashtoreth (Peter Verwimp), Stratosphere (Ronald Mari?n) and Marko Neuman. Mattias initially contacted Peter in the context of a Pothamus-performance, which took place in the Pieter and Paulus church in Mechelen, Belgium in April 2022. The contacts leading up to this performance also resulted in the idea of a collaboration of different sorts: a split album. The timing proved to be perfect, as Peter already had some raw material born out of a collaboration with Marko Neuman. After sharing some ideas and philosophical reflections, the conceptual grounds were fertile for a joint release, which became UR. "Peter Verwimp has become an artist of his very own kind; a self-proclaimed sonic shaman." Tone Shift."Atmospheric drones and passages calm you down and make you feel dreamy. Deep dark drones suck out all vital forces and give it back to nature. Ambient post-rock forms bring a glimpse of serenity to your mind.. And these are only the elements you hear in the foreground, while there's so much happening down there, on the second, third, fourth layer. All these tiny decorations, which makes this work complete."-Santa Sangre Magazine. For fans of: Syndrome, Stratosphere, Sum Of R. Vinyl is smokey black vinyl
