Dark ambient artist Peter Bjärgö returns with ‘The Translucency Of Mind’s Decay’

Swedish dark ambient artist Peter Bjärgö used 2020 to write and record a brand new album, out on Aoril26th, about “change, aging and the fading memories one has, often more of a product of the current state of a person than an accurate description of those remembered moments.” Peter Bjärgö elaborates: “With age we tend to forget or lose contact with particular moments and parts of our own story and context become erased forever, as though they never happened.”
The 8-track album comes in a CD edition of 500 copies in 6 panels digipak, matt lamination. It is also available as a standard LP edition of 200 copies on black vinyl and in a special LP edition of 100 copies on blue/grey marbled vinyl.

Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil. Besides music I’m also an SEO and AI content flow specialist and have an interest in everything finance from stocks to crypto. There is music in everything!
