We are excited to announce BonBomb by Beam the Bomb as the sixth release on Xilent Records! It will be released into the aether on 23rd October 2023, with a celebration and performance by Beam the Bomb at our coming event in OT301.

Beam the Bomb, an experimental music group, is pushing the boundaries of music and instrumentation with their unique approach to music-making. Their compositions are characterized by evocative soundscapes created through a blend of electronica and non-musical objects.

What sets Beam the Bomb apart from other experimental music groups is their informal approach to music-making. This allows them to infuse their compositions with a high degree of spontaneity and creativity, making their music fresh and unpredictable. They take risks and push the boundaries of musical expression, resulting in pieces that do not fit neatly into any one genre, yet are united by a focus on mood and atmosphere.

Rob Gradisen - samples
Jasna Velickovic - velicon, coils, electronics
Assi Weitz- toys, pans, synth, & bells

'Nagel pushes the sound boundaries with "eventually" and enters the Robert Fripp sound-scape spectrum in an original way with his experimental double bass adaptations without selling his soul.'

"The atmosphere is gloomy, just like on the predecessor 'Eventually'. For those willing to immerse themselves in it, 'Way Over Time' is a captivating listen."
