I want something ambient, fast and dreadfully dark.

So is it ambient or is it fast? Those things are somewhat mutually exclusive?

How about this? Starts out slow, gets a lot faster around the middle. Also dark as ****.

Good! Thanks. This was what I meant by both ambient and fast.

Here's another great track of theirs. Actually pretty much everything they put out is amazing.

Hey people
Yesterday i heard an awsome melody by an unknown autor. I just know that his name is Gren or Glen and a surname strats with B. (Something like Blanco/Bianco). He wrote different generes(jazz, blues..). I think he was italian or he still is..

I'm waiting for the answer and dying to find out who he is

Sounds like it may be Glenn Branca.
I Don't know a lot of his stuff, but what I have heard is pretty dramatic.
Some of the symphonies have a heavy rock sound based on repeated riffs, and he also uses natural temperament in interesting ways.
Think I had better listen to some more in fact !!
Plent to hear on Spotty IIRC, And some on youtube.

Here's a nice piece of music from 500 years ago. The most remarkable thing about it is that it has recently been transcribed from a painting by Hieronymus Bosch:-

“I decided to transcribe it into modern notation, assuming the second line of the staff is C, as is common for chants of this era,” Hamrick wrote on her blog.

If you want to see the notation of the Butt Song from Hell close up, or if you don't know much about the Garden of Earthly Delights painting, you can watch this news report by some presenters who seemingly don't know much about the painting either:-

¿There's some actually classical composer?. I mean, a composer that makes things like Mozart piano sonatas 310 & 533. Thank you.
