[bleak027]bleak027 is finally out, it`s Cezary Gapik, our man in Poland.
Being active in the "Isolationist Ambient" scene for many years, and being influenced by artists such as Nocturnal Emissions and Lull, his own work is a mixture of all this, with a very unique and incomparable touch.
Enjoy!

Three new releasesYou lucky people!
We are currently working on three (three!) new releases on Bleak, actually four, but the next three will come in one.
I will not tell you too much right now, just wait a couple of days, bear with us, and hope with us that all will work out the way we plan.
If you live in or around Vienna, check out the event posters on the top of this page.
A new event series will begin in July, "Ohrenschrauben" at the Fluc club in Vienna. Dedicated to Industrial, Noise and Experimental, me and some very special guests will hurt your ears with pleasure.
Don`t miss it!

the bleak manifest
BLEAK is a netlabel. we distribute art that does not fit in
elsewhere. this may be difficult music, atonal music, sounds, noises, spoken
word, improvisation, experimental.
music that is not intended to make you dance. but even that depends on HOW you would dance to it.
music that is not intended to make you dance. but even that depends on HOW you would dance to it.
BLEAK is also a platform for any other form of art that can be
presented on an internet site.
there will always be images, videos, paintings, drawings or poetry that reflect the ideas and imaginations we have.

BLEAK is the home for artists who don't care too much about pleasing
the audience. this does not make us better or special. it just represents an
alternative to the pop culture, where music finds the audience. we hope that
the audience finds us, because they are looking for us.
BLEAK is not a counterpart to anything or something special. it is an
extension.
we hope you like what you see and hear... and feel. if something makes you feel uncomfortable, it may be intentional.

a
BLEAK release is not necessarily a downloadable package. we may release also
images, events, ideas, words.
