Album Notes

I didn\'t set out to create a \'dark ambient\' album, this release came out of a period of experimentation. However, the reaction I have had from this release suggests that it could be described as such. Certainly it\'s a potent and challenging listen!


Selected extracts from review by Ben Fleury-Steiner for Wind and Wire:

\'The multi-talented Pete Kelly (a.k.a. Igneous Flame) known perhaps more in the ambient world for his spacier (e.g., Tolmon) and more meditative (e.g., Oxana) works takes a different turn on this earlier release, Intox. An accomplished soundtrack composer and sound installation artist, Kelly explores far ghostlier sonic realms here. In contrast to Tolmon, a vast and galactic set, or the organic drifting textures Kelly creates most recently on Oxana, Intox is a shape-shifting work of gray-lit, sonic contortions...Admirers of Robert Rich\'s seminal dark works - perhaps, especially his Stalker collaboration with Brian Williams (a.k.a. Lustmord) - will find Intox ripe with satisfying mystery...A truly intoxicating release from a cutting-edge artist that all fans of darker, organic, and, ultimately, more mysterious sounds should familiarize themselves with immediately.\'
