ABOUT
With their roots in India and Sweden respectively, Daljit Kundi and Ludvig Cimbrelius met in the sphere of UK music culture. With Daljit growing up in Birmingham, and Ludvig having been heavily influenced by the influx of innovative electronic music from the British isles, it was in the realms of ambient jungle that the musical duo first set sail together. Their debut release ‘Timeless Travellers’ is an intergalactic voyage undertaken in the spirit of innocence and exploration that remains a hallmark of the genre, including remixes from their long time friend Simon Huxtable (Aural Imbalance) as well as the melodic genius Ulrich Schnauss. Ludvig traveled to Birmingham for the release event, performing a powerful set back-to-back with Daljit.

After some extraordinary remix work for their good friend Kirsty Hawkshaw’s Wellhead Records and several celebrated EP’s, the duo moved away from the fast paced breaks, bringing the scope of cinematic ambient into full focus. This change was also reflected in their shifting monikers, with Ludvig returning to his roots with ‘Purl’ and Daljit bringing his cinematic inner visions to life as ‘Sinius’. Their debut album ‘Oceans of Sounds’, though passed on by several record labels, was eventually released some 3 years after its completion and has subsequently become an underground classic.

Recurring struggles with record labels and with getting their music heard coincided with big life changes, ultimately leading to their next album waiting on the shelf in a near-finished state for close to 7 years. Passing along a demo to PITP eventually led to their embracing of the project, and with their loving support ‘Embryology’ is now ready to be born. In contrast to its predecessor ’Oceans of Sound’ - and as its title suggests - ‘Embryology’ is an exploration of the inner creative realms and the emotional aspects of the different stages of the creative process. As a whole, the album attempts to represent a psychic darkness that is as deeply restful as it is ripe with creative potential.

Ludvig and Daljit extend their deep gratitude to their friends at PITP for their loving support, and especially to Zach, Cynthia and James for their respective contributions in making ‘Embryology’ ready for the world.

Frequencies — Drift Notion’s lo-fi suite mapped to calming frequency beds. Each track pairs a specific tone (alpha/theta/delta pulses; 432/528/639/741…) with dusty drums, warm tape, and neon ambience to steer the mood—from morning clarity to midnight deep sleep. Built for study, journaling, decompressing; play it straight through for a day-to-night arc or drop into the emotion you need.

Vincent Villuis remastered the album and added Aftermath # 08 originally released on Nova’s compilation Albedo. This new version, titled Aftermath 2.0, digitally released mid-April 2013 in lossless format on Ultimae’s store, offers a collection of HD wallpapers presenting the artwork of Paul Takahashi. 

"These Aftermaths which one experiences closely of from afar, at times personal others mediatized, these dark grey or luminous climatic moments." 
Telescoping of natural and urban zones; rhythmics verging on industrial or diving into liquid air; deep bass lines shaking ecstatic drifts - "Aftermath" aims to be a series of sound photographies of our "beautiful" world in complete rotation. Peace, it seems, becomes precarious, some are trying to archive the concept. 
This project from Aes Dana is composed as an eight movements spacey and downtempo tale.

When swedish artist Solar Fields (Magnus Birgersson) meets french artist AES Dana (Vincent Villuis)...the outcome is H.U.V.A. Network, a downtempo project where North and South regions mix and jumble together in a fluid manner. 

The pair of sound architects explore ambient-electronica landscapesand their multiple layouts.The album was thought out and composed in two studios : 
- Studio Jupiter (Göteborg - Sweden) 
- Ultimae Studio (Lyon - France) 
Musical works and ideas were conceived in this two creation poles via a few travels and a high speed internet network connection, thus breaking [ Distances ] which separate the two composers. 

6 months of composition, 2 weeks of mixing and a week of mastering with Huby Sea, were necessary to give form to this outstanding encounter album.

Astropilot is the alias of electronic musician Dmitry Redko. His music is hard to constrain to a single style, rather, it’s an eclectic blend that defies boundaries. Whether it is a chillout-ambient composition or a more dance-oriented track, Dmitry aims to “tell a story” with it. Astropilot authored soundtracks for popular apps Solar Walk / Star Walk, which were downloaded over 10 million times. Material created over the years had been released on labels familiar to electronic music connoisseurs – Ultimae, Iboga, JOOF. 
Dmitry manned the stage in many European countries, as well as in Canada, Mexico, Israel, Lebanon, and even in Australia.
