The first and only release on Taalem by Nihm is already from 2005, so it was about time he got something out again. Giuseppe Verticchio from Italy is no unknown to most of us. My collection, too, has some Silentes Minimal Editions releases from him and projects he is a member of, like Hall Of Mirrors and Maribor. “Recalling Black Silences” is a 20-minute piece with luscious pads and minimal melodies. Despite the eerie character and the title, this track has a lot of warmth. Yes, it’s ultra-minimal ambient, but maybe this should also qualify to be described as a melodic drone. There is not much happening, but everything that is happening has a meaning and leads up to the empty feeling you are left with after it finishes. And then you want more of this feeling of nothingness.
