ILYAS AHMED - BETWEEN TWO SKIES/TOWARDS THE NIGHT (LIMITED 2LP)

Ilyas Ahmed Between Two Skies/Towards The Night on Limited Edtion 2 x Vinyl LP

Pakistani-born musician Ilyas Ahmed traffics a sound that borders on the folk/drone/raga/rock axis. Currently residing in Portland, OR, Ahmed has released recordings on Time-Lag, Digitalis, and Root Strata. He is known to perform live with Honey Owens (Valet) and Jed Bindeman (Eternal Tapestry, Heavy Winged) and his recent recordings have featured Liz Harris (Grouper).

He first appeared in the Fall of 2005 with Between Two Skies and Towards The Night, two albums that were released on CDr in editions of 50 copies. Even in editions so small these records quickly made waves and impacted anyone who was lucky enough to hear them. In 2007, Between Two Skies and Towards The Night were given a proper CD release by Digitalis.

Immune Recordings is now proud to present the ultimate edition of these two modern classics presented as a deluxe gatefold double LP. Featuring the original collage artwork printed in full color as well as brand new gatefold artwork created especially for this release by Ilyas Ahmed. The music was meticulously cut to vinyl by Roger Seibel at SAE Mastering in Phoenix, AZ and pressed on high quality virgin vinyl at RTI in Camarillo, CA.
