*200 copies limited edition* Die Sonne Satans (also known as Die Sonne Satan) is the musical creation of Paolo Beltrame. The name Die Sonne Satans is borrowed from the title of Georges Bernanos' novel "Sous le soleil de Satan", which Maurice Pialat adapted into the eponymous film in 1987. Die Sonne Satans is driven by the desire for self-determination in opposition to dogmas or conventions supported only by tradition, authority, or revelation. It remains one of the most creative and simultaneously obscure inspirations of the Italian electronic scene of the 1990s.
"Omega" is the third and final release of the project. It is partly composed of tracks specifically produced based on field recordings and tapes from various sources and partly from previous sessions that did not find a place in the original tape. A distinctive feature of the project has always been the elaboration of sounds from samples of everyday objects, decontextualizing their nature. This aspect makes the sound of Die Sonne Satans extremely contemporary.
This reissue, curated by Raffaele Pezzella, remastered by Maurizio Pustianaz and reworked by Beltrame himself, includes two tracks previously released on two very rare and hard-to-find tape compilations.
The track “Unconscious Spiral” was originally published on the compilation “New Aeon Symbols” (tape format, released by the German Abyss Records in 1993).
The track “Cretes” was originally published on the compilation “Cantiones Maldoror” (tape format, released by the Portuguese Maldoror Tapes in 1993 in only 30 copies).
