Originally released as a limited edition CD licensed to another label in 2005, The Hidden Nameless finally returns home and gets an anticipated reissue on Niko Skorpio's own label Some Place Else. It is perhaps the purest dark ambient album from Niko Skorpio, yet executed with an experimental and innovative angle. With certain haunting Lovecraftian flavour, the album captures the ears of imaginative listeners with its extreme deepness and desolate, otherworldly atmosphere.

The Hidden Nameless was created in 2003 & 2004 on various locations in and around Turku, Finland, employing sampler, location recordings, synth, bass guitar, dsp, percussion, cut-ups and vocals.

The reissue contains two additional, exclusive tracks (9 and 10) not included in the first edition of this album. They date from the same period and utilize the same source material as tracks 1-8, but remained unfinished until autumn 2009.

Update — February 22:
Physical edition now available! CDR in dvd case with 4-page insert, all pro quality, hand-assembled with love and care. Strictly limited to 93 copies, hand-numbered.

Reviews

"Tämä levy pitää sisällään kolme varttia todella hyvällä tyylitajulla tehtyä synkkää ambientia. Se alkaa aaltoilevasti, ja siirtyy hiljalleen kohti rakenteellisesti yhä vaativampia osuuksia. ... Kyseessä on todella selkeästi erottuvien osien varaan luotu kokonaisuus. Tässä ei maalailla äänimaisemia, vaan luodaan sävellettyä kokonaisteosta joka huimaa monipuolisuudellaan ilman että sen tunnelma hajoaa missään vaiheessa. ... Tämä on fiksua ambientia vaativalle kuuntelijalle ja poikkeaa kiitettävän paljon muista suomalaisen ambientin kärkiteoksista. ... Ehdottomasti hankkimisen arvoinen." (Kuolleen musiikin yhdistys)
