Cellar of Rats

CELLAR OF RATS (Vlad K) Cellar of Rats had his first contact with music more than 15 years ago and has worked professionally in the music industry, playing and composing for various instruments in many bands, mostly of underground nature, gaining performance and composition experience. A perfectionist by nature, he puts a great care in his work and is an invaluable asset to any project he's involved in. His main interests, and what mostly motivates him, are horror movies, or those which have a mysterious feel to it, and anything related to H.P. Lovecraft. According to his own words, his source of inspiration are big, ancient and rusty machines, quiet and forbidden places, abandoned ruins guarding archaic secrets, endless halls covered with mould, dusty dungeons and, of course, damp cellars with the occasional rats. These are incidentally some of the imagery conjured by his music, which transcends the boundaries of Dark Ambient to turn into a singular concept -- rather than common ambient soundscapes, Cellar of Rats' music has a dramatic movie-like feel to it, which makes it fit better as a soundtrack. But a soundtrack of gloomy landscapes and otherwordly monstruosities. Perhaps a better way to transmit the feeling Cellar of Rats evokes would be to imagine a trip in a creaky boat crossing infinite rivers, escorted by impossible creatures diving under its dark waters, or a descend into a black void, an endless pit deep inside the twisted mind of the man behind the music. Who knows what unspeakable horrors Cellar of Rats has in store for us there. Review by Agustin Cordes / Nucleosys
