Winternight is one man project who play instrumental music, founded by Iowa Ababil who also involved in crust/doom/sludge band; World To Be Ashes.

Story behind this project.
Year of 2006 was a very terrible years for my personal life, also the year that I no longer play music. Alienation in those years led me to a saturation point in playing music, until finally I decided to make a solo project named Winternight with minimal skills and limited understanding of music.

I do not have a good reason about taking the name, I just call it like-it, and that too is enough to describe the alienation represent nights that I spent in those years. And Winternight has brought me to a room where I found many other apocalypse than just play music.

But this is a melancholia which I have never loved. When a lot of catharsis that I can not tell by my previous bands. In Winternight I found a simpler way to describe something even if only through the effects of sampling. At least I was not imprisoned in words. Because words are never enough to expose it. For that I don't need to write the lyrics or the vocal sounds included in it, I just play the tone and enter the sampling that I was never concerned with the rules of right or wrong chord. As well as to represent alienation, I just enter the sampling wind and waves with the atmosphere of a quiet night, or enter a sampling of war to represent anger. Or spice it up with the conversation which I stole from a scene in the movie. Although not as simple as that Winternight talk about my life, meaning whatever is inside it's something that I feel and I see in my everyday life.

I have only the smallest fraction of people who are really serious about playing music like this. I just tried to incorporate some element effects, synthesizers and sampling into it, the more exploration into experimental, neo-classical, noise, shoegaze, ethereal wave and black metal, though not as stuck up there, my journey is still long to find other elements that may be more representative of myself, but I did a little exploration of several movie soundtracks.

This journey takes the silence of the world just a very annoying noise, is also an escape from anxiety and loneliness that continually haunt, where I lost a lot of people nearby who leaves without a trace. Winternight is a dream construction of the escapees.
