Sebastian Tomb - Even in shit, there is money [Gates Of Hypnos - 2025]

Here’s a recent four-track mini-album/ EP from Sebastian Tomb- the Berlin-based project, which takes a more moody-to-creative take on walled/ textured noise form.  Each track mixes experimental ambient elements with minimalistic/low-key wall craft.

This is a digital release appearing on Poland’s Gates of Hypnos. The cover artwork is a monochrome picture of a female waitress sitting smoking on a stool in a classic American diner. This theme carries through to the track titles as well, as they revolve around the dinner, its location, the waitress, and her clients.

We open with the four minutes of “The Neighbourhood” which presents us with a roughshod rolling bass tone, skittering grain detail, and a low-key oppressive atmosphere. Next is “The Diner”, here we find a loose-yet-persistent mix of constantly tumbling mids, rattling hisses, and muffled clutterings.

Track three is “The Guests”, and this seven-minute track focuses on a purring/ yet wavering low end, uneasy tone billow, and slurred glitching.  With “The Waitress” being the longest track here at dead on the twenty-minute mark, it blends distant underground like rumblings, rattling/ hazed juddering, and faint harmonic/ woozy atmospheric ambient elements.

While Sebastian Tomb is hardly the most prolific project in the wall scene, it’s most certainly one of the more creative/thought-provoking. All told, Even In shit, There is money, is another great release from Sebastian Tomb. And it can be found here
