Subpulse

Fractalyst joins the Cryo Chamber with his debut album Watchtower, a post apocalyptic journey painted on the thickest walls of sound. Analogue and modular synths run through tape

After so long in the underground facilities alone, you discover an encrypted signal, coordinates that lead to the Watchtower, the new eden. “There’s nothing for me here any more” you mutter to yourself, and a journey to vast post apocalyptic lands begins

Recommended for fans of the post apocalyse, analogue textures and soothing warm tape noise

Opaline Apparitions

Atrium Carceri presents us the album Forgotten Gods, exploring the underworld beneath our cities.

Far below the abandoned subway stations and sewers our reality collapses as tunnels turns to labyrinths and ritual halls where ancient cults chant in the dark. And deeper still, old civilizations of insectoid guardians and biomechanical priests guard outwordly artifacts and passageways to the ancient city.

Here roam the forgotten gods whom the unfortunate dwellers of the dark worship.

Here roam the hybrid creatures forged in the Machine City as its decaying birthing chambers cry for human eggs and seminal fluids.

Here the gates to the ancient city opens momentarily into the eternal labyrinth if you'd be unwise enough to visit...

Pathway to Nothing

The dark industrial noises of Brooddark meet the mystical rituals of Tsarewitch to merge into a hypnotic, mesmerizing and cinematic canvases.

Supra Memoriam is an album about ancient memory, or rather about what lies beyond it, the great flow of power that awakens in an industrial society devastated by wars and crises. Drowning out their own thoughts with the noise of factory machines, not giving their hands a rest in endlessly repeating mechanical movements, disappointed and depressed, people will reject scientific progress and the dogmas of ideologies. And they will reach for what is beyond, for what was long forgotten — and the great flow will rush out, and the witches will be reborn. And what was locked in the chest will begin to seek oblation.

Tsarewitch & Brooddark - Supra Memoriam - 05 Salt and Sanctuary

Tsarewitch & Brooddark - Supra Memoriam - 03 Hide and Seek the Truth

3 veteran producers in the genre, Apocryphos, Kammarheit & Atrium Carceri, collaborate on this behemoth of an album. Each utilizing each others strengths to bring forth a dark and emotional ride through distant memories. 

Onyx is a soundscape journey related to the reflection of dispirited memories and obscure sorrows felt by mankind. With the multitude of techniques used by each artist, it also reflects the rich history of the dark ambient genre and how it has progressed through the decades. 

The signature analogue darkness of gargantuan caves of Kammarheit is combined with the sacral and emotional layering of Apocryphos and the rhytmical bass throbbing and isolated pianos of Atrium Carceri. 

This album was created by cross linking 3 studios in Oregon (US), Pennsylvania (US) and Umeå(Sweden). It took over 3800 lines of studio notes to finalize the album.

Tomb of Druids is the third album in the "Tomb" series 

5 ambient artists join forces to delve deep into druidic history. 

The chant of the ceremony swells beyond walls of wet stone. Your bare feet on red sand peak out of cloudy robes. 
Figures sway among the pillars of the stone circle. Their song spirals up towards the night sky. 

The stars move in pulsating patterns and combine to form the bird of light. It swoops down from it's celestial home to push it's claws into the red soil, it stares into your soul before it put it's head under it's wing and drowns in the sand. A tiny finger cymbal echo between the pillars as the voices die down. The figures are gone, only their empty robes left behind. You stand alone under a night sky drained of stars, pure black. 

Druidic chanting and deep walls of sound lends a cavernous atmosphere to Tomb of Druids.

Tomb of Druids

ProtoU - Eyes of the Shaman

"Oyez, oyez, oyez!
All good citizens draw near and harken unto these words. For it is grave news this ere night, grave news indeed.
Be it known to all ye, that there has been another murder. A most gruesome murder, and the killer is still on the loose.
So good people ye, lock up your windows, bracen your doors and be safe on this night, for all is not well. All is not well"
The Crier's words hung heavy in the early eve. Shutters were closed and the townsfolk scattered to their homes as empty beggars' hands withdrew to the gutter leaving the once bustling crooked cobblestone streets now but a desolate spiral of gas lit flicker and elongated shadows.
