I don’t know what being ‘secretly developed’ by Ritual Productions entails. It sounds both physically uncomfortable and psychically awesome. Either way, that’s what Viviankrist — formerly known as Vivian Slaughter of Gallhammer — has apparently been through in order to sign to the label ahead of the release of Cross Modulation, a new full-length due out June 7 in collaboration with Diagonal Records. Viviankrist has a slew of releases streaming on Bandcamp of various stripes and lengths, so if you want to get lost in the experimentalist synthesized drear, there’s plenty of opportunity to do so, but should you not want to venture so far afield, the new track “Behind Mirror” can be heard right at the bottom of this post. Service with a smile.

The PR wire has the tale to tell:

RITUAL PRODUCTIONS ANNOUNCE NEW SIGNING VIVIANKRIST AND REVEALS COLLABORATION WITH DIAGONAL RECORDS

Ritual Productions have secretly been developing Diagonal Records’ latest signing Viviankrist. Eri Isaka Fuzz-Kristiansen is no stranger to Ritual Productions, having shared stages with Ramesses in her previous incarnation as Gallhammer’s Vivian Slaughter.

As Viviankrist, Eri has delved deep into her love for analog synths and improvised music, switching effortlessly between cinematic, hypnotic and affecting grooves.

Ritual Productions reveals: “We have witnessed Viviankrist’s birth, growth and progress; it has been a magickal journey where many wishes have become reality. We are collaborating with Diagonal Records for the release of Viviankrist’s ‘Cross Modulation’ – a first for both labels. Ritual Productions and Diagonal may operate in wildly different sonic realms but both praise artistic freedom, strive to provide artists with all necessary support, and fans with beautifully designed and packaged releases.”

Eri states: “Delivering my music to different audiences is exciting. I am really happy that ‘Cross Modulation’ is coming out via a collaboration between Ritual Productions and Diagonal Records. Both labels are extreme and are always pushing boundaries. They have a very strong character and powerful identity which I feel suits my distinctive sound.”

Cross Modulation sees release on June 7th.
