Dark Ambient

Skrika presents us his first album on Cryo Chamber, a tour de force of cinematic sound design and dark brooding soundscapes.

Fifth Nature is the first of a series of albums set in the far distant future. Over centuries, failed technological attempts to restore balance to the Earth have left it blackened and its ecosystems fragile. Its population is divided between the Lemmites who think that further synthetic biological intervention is the answer, and the Atom Priesthood who worship the purity of nature.

As storms rage around her, Cerria, a synbio necromancer communes with spirits to foretell Earth’s fate. Meanwhile, the high priest Atom-Yn sings of the blood moon tetrad and the end of days.

Gradually the vast network of machines that purify the atmosphere and enable life to continue on Earth grind to a halt. Desolation grips both Cerria and Atom-Yn as they try to save their followers. What ensues is the seventh extinction event, one in which both human and all remaining life comes under threat. Unable to survive on Earth any longer, Cerria and Atom-Yn reconcile and with a few brave souls take flight into the further most reaches of space seeking new planets to inhabit.

Black Earth

Ager Sonus presents us an album that explore the outer planes of existence on Niflheim

800 AD, an era of conquest, conflict and war. Another trip into the unknown, another seemingly endless day, another battlefield. The feeling of cold rain on your skin, the smell of rotten wood, mud, burning huts and blood fill up your nostrils. Numbed by the endless fighting, the sounds of battle feel muffled, your vision blurred, a thick layer of mist building around you, almost as if the Gods as well had enough and are reaching out to grab you and take you away...

Recommended for fans of Nordic Mythology and Dreamy Soundtracks

Niflheim

Going North

The Dormancy is the sixth album by God Body Disconnect. A borderland where all mirrors tell the same thing; you are not yourself. The voice of the body is not your own and there is no way to wake up from the dreadful haze.

Bruce Moallem continues his unique combination of nightmarish field recordings and dosed soundscapes, mixed with confessions recorded on an old tape machine.
Bruce yet again shows us why he is considered a master of sonic storytelling.

Recommended for fans of walls of sound, isolation and tape machines.

The Architects consists of 8 evolving tracks with a mechanical touch to each one. This album is the product of deep theory, ageless echos and murmurs of voices not heard in countless millennium. 
By use of ritual techniques and unconventional sampling, Randal Collier-Ford takes us to his world of a union between the old and the new. This is an original take on Drone vs Sound Design, leaving enough room on the album to explore both concepts fully, from empty rooms of pure sound sampling and bowing techniques to tracks with bass driven drone fused with distortion and drum hits from the abyss

Follow the voice in the dark

Dark Ambient - Guide Me” is a dark cinematic soundtrack piece shaped by a deep, haunting male voice.
A mysterious, otherworldly presence calls out from the shadows — ancient, patient, and powerful.
Slow-moving air, distant echoes, and a ritual-like atmosphere create a soundscape that feels both spiritual and unsettling.

Anderer Traum

Pär Boström of cult project Kammarheit presents us with his side project Cities Last Broadcasts second album, The Humming Tapes 

On this album Pär Boström explores his fascination with old seances and the early 20th century. Reel-to-reel tape recorders and de-tuned instrumentation combined with modern mixing techniques creates an album that sounds haunted, but also careful and nurturing. 

Pär has with this work taken yet another step forward in his production skill set squashing any doubt that he is one of the most unique artists in the genre with his unorthodox approach to recording his sounds.

Owsey - Thousands of Summer Twilights (Dead Melodies Remix)

Alphaxone, ProtoU and Onasander join forces on Shadows of Forgotten Legends. Ancient behemoths lurk in black waters on this sub-ambient album.

According to Nordic legends, the Kraken was a mythological creature that was terrorizing sailors from Greenland to Norway. By emerging from deep sea, the giant beast was shattering vessels with huge tentacles and devouring entire crews.

"Shadows of forgotten legends" draws a new sonic path to invoke this ancient Scourge of the Seas, awakening it from deep sleep.

"Below the thunders of the upper deep;
Far far beneath in the abysmal sea,
His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep
The Kraken sleepeth: faintest sunlights flee
About his shadowy sides; above him swell
Huge sponges of millennial growth and height;
And far away into the sickly light,
From many a wondrous grot and secret cell
Unnumber'd and enormous polypi
Winnow with giant arms the slumbering green.
There hath he lain for ages, and will lie
Battening upon huge seaworms in his sleep,
Until the latter fire shall heat the deep;
Then once by man and angels to be seen,
In roaring he shall rise and on the surface die.
- Alfred Lord Tennyson"

Layered drone and aquatic textures combine for a deep journey into the depths.

Shadows of Forgotten Legends

Beneath the Dark Night

Delve deep into the visions of opera vocalist Agrathas spiritual nightmares, where suffering and madness gets comforted by the calm hand of the dark expanding universe. Halgrath is easiest described as Dark Ritual Ambient. With her hypnotic incantations reverberating through heavy textures the atmosphere is oozing with quality of production. 
Out of Time weaves a tale of souls lost in limbo, grasping to get back to reality, when their only outcome is to be discarded and shattered into pieces in the deep pits of non existance.
