The Earthen Fortress

God Body Disconnect presents his 7th solo album, Spiral of Grief. An introspective journey through a world of melancholia, where haunting questions of mortality and madness form the path.

B.M. Journal Entry 05/14/XXXX
I’m lost. I can’t find who I am anymore. The threshold of sanity has been crossed so many times, I don’t know if I’ll ever make it back. I feel like my nose is hovering just above the waterline. I’m tired of frantically thrashing my legs to keep afloat, but there’s no choice, because below awaits the abyss. Its’ immense power keeps pulling me toward the darkness like a magnet. I know what’s down there. I’ve been there before, and I don’t ever want to go back. But, the wolves of hell have been sent to devour me, and there’s no calling them off. I wonder how long I can last…

For fans of post-rock atmospheres layered in lush sonic textures and the darkest melancholy

Spiral of Grief

This is where I Disappear

Dead Melodies presents us his new dark ambient noir album Murken Hollow

What actually happened that cold and misty November remained a mystery, but the cases were connected, that much was clear.

Ten murders across the city and a myriad of frankly surreal circumstances and evidence that made no sense. At each crime scene strange piles of singed black flakes surrounded a body laid out with no obvious cause of death. Nearby mirrors cast no reflection and looked like endless black pools of nothingness that almost hurt to look into. And in the pocket of each victim, a cryptic letter with inverted writing and a ticket stub from the sleepy town of Murken Hollow.

The detective poured the last dregs of a bottle into a coffee mug while drawing on a cigarette, a permanent look of despair wrinkled his brow. The dingy office was smoky and dark, half lit from the street lights beyond the frosted windows so the shadows hung long and moved with the traffic. On the wall an elaborate pin board littered in string and polaroids in an attempt to make sense of it all, but with no prints or sign of intruders the distant town of Murken Hollow was the only possible lead.

And then from under a pile of papers on the messy desk, the phone rang... Another murder.

Dronny Darko & Ugasanie join forces once more for the long awaited follow up to their previous album Arctic Gates.

"Deep beneath the ice a disturbing past sleeps, unaware of the tiny human footsteps outside its crystalline bed chamber. The waves high above the chasms frost ceiling recede to subdued noise as the expedition moves further down into the abyss. The research equipment starts giving out sharp bleeping sounds as they move into a magnetic field, and on the other sound of the ice wall something stirs in response"

Dark Source of the North

Anomaly

ProtoU & Oljus join forces on this Viking inspired dark ambient album. Ritual drumming and deep drone echo through dark forest and underground caves.

Welcome to the heart of the Nordic forests, where the rustling of leaves and the cool breeze fill your senses. You breathe in the rich, earthy scent of pine, as you survey the towering trees that surround you.

The night sky is a deep, velvet black, punctuated by the glimmering of stars. They cast a soft, ethereal light on the clearing, as if observing the mysterious events about to unfold.

The forest is alive with the sound of chanting, a distant hum, growing louder and more intense as it approaches. Drums join in and reverberate through your chest.

You watch, mesmerized, as the elders perform the ritual, their movements fluid and otherworldly. Their raspy voices rise in unison, the chanting builds to a fever pitch as they summon forth powers from beyond the veil.

The old gods watch from Valhalla to lend their blessings to fight new gods that smell of flowers, and not mead.

The Summoning

The Peoples Temple is Council of Nine's third album focusing on the dark side of mass followings and cults, the first being Exit Earth, the second being Davidian.

"A tiny kitten sits next to me. Watching. A dog barks. The birds gather on the telephone wires. Let all the story of this Peoples Temple be told. Let all the books be opened. This sight … o terrible victory. How bitter that we did not, could not, that Peoples Temple was crushed by a world that he didn’t make – how great the victory.

If nobody understands, it matters not. I am ready to die now. Darkness settles over The Peoples Temple on its last day on earth."

Recommended for fans of the darker side of the human psyche, not for the faint of heart!

The Peoples Temple

391you Could leave Now

Hoshin, also know under his alias Esylt, presents us with a soothing ambient music album. Ripe with field recordings of lush forests and damp ancient temples. Layered with mechanical undertones it creates a unique atmosphere. An enlightening voyage to the center of Mysticism. Blackened machines summon dread, while the spiritual world knocks on the door of reality. 

The stench of decay stand in stark contrast to the awakened mind. We feel throbbing bass one minute, the other surrounded by murmuring crowds. From within them the cough of pestilence echo through halls that never end. 

This is fresh twist on the dark ambient genre and drone music. 

Available in 24 bit FLAC
