Bio
Private Mountain is audio and visual project of Dimitar Dodovski (@dimitardodovski) and Toni Dimitrov (@tonidimitrov) releasing their debut album ‘Blue Mountain’ on UK label Neotantra (curated by Lee Anthony Norris). It is a project about their shared fascination with nature, art, philosophy and discussions about the past and future of ambient music, that resulted with a beautiful introspective album that entered the bandcamp chart of ambient bestsellers and received many great reviews.
The album ‘Dark Political Stratum’ by Private Mountain is the third release on the Macedonian experimental label Élan Vital Recordings, and second for the duo of Toni Dimitrov and Dimitar Dodovski. The album refers to the global geopolitical changes and turbulence at the beginning of the 21 century. Produced in Macedonia, a center of the global geostrategic clashes of the superpowers, it is a sound statement to these global political shifts, observed through the local prism. Macedonia in the recent years and under the pressure of the neighboring countries and the superpowers, using all methods of the hybrid war, passed through very harsh historical times and major changes, that unfortunately resulted with disintegration of the nation as we know it. ‘Dark political stratum’ is slightly noisier and experimental release, which development came out as an outtake of the material for the upcoming album ‘СТРАТУМИ’, coming up as their third release on Silent Season label.
