Ritual Productions is an independent record label and publisher, committed to providing uneasy listening for the masses, since Winter 2010. Ritual Productions exists to support and unleash daring, transcendental and original music with arcane artists of the same persuasion. By permitting artists the freedom and independence to work instinctively and enabling them to conjure sonic potions that resonate deeply with their own, and the label’s, ethos and psyche, we believe this allows the unhinged and otherworldly magik to thrive! The result has been releases – what we deem RITES – that are intoxicating, hypnotic and deeply infectious in their power to melt minds, awaken the dormant third eye and entrance the listener into our disorientating riff realm of chaos. Ritual Productions sees all of its rites as serious artistic processes which deserve and receive the utmost care and attention to detail, releasing only the best quality products, crafted to inspire you.
Debut release RITE001 initiated the ceremonies with Ramesses second full length album, titled ‘Take the Curse’, which was unleashed on Summer Solstice 2010. This critically acclaimed album was followed by Ritual Productions releasing Ramesses’ entire back catalogue as digital downloads. A very successful inauguration which surpassed all expectations.
In 2011 Ritual Productions released three brand new albums around Spring Equinox: Bong ‘Beyond Ancient Space’ (RITE006CD & RITE007DL), Ramesses ‘Chrome Pineal’ (RITE008LP & RITE009DL), and Ramesses ‘Possessed by The Rise of Magik’ (RITE010CD & RITE011DL). We were very proud to release our first vinyl, and looked forward to many more vinyl releases in the near future.
2012 started with three releases: the re-issue of long sold out vinyl for Ramesses ‘Take the Curse’ (RITE013LP), with new packaging and lots of extra material and goodies, an eagerly awaited and especially remixed vinyl release for Ramesses ‘Possessed By The Rise of Magik’(RITE012LP), and last but not least, a brand new full length studio album from Bong, titled ‘Mana-Yood-Sushai’ (RITE016CD). We have also reissued Bong’s rare debut ‘Self-titled’ (RITE018CD) album for the first time on CD, with an awesome previously unreleased bonus track from the same recording session. The last release of 2012 is the vinyl version of Bong’s ‘Mana-Yood-Sushai’ (RITE020LP). The label would remain consistent and active onwards.
