The longest song on Carpathian Dreams, червень. The word червень sounds like "ch'er'ven" and it's the Ukrainian word for June.

Hidden Hope (Another Season)

Behind The Sky is the incredible debut collaboration from @inthebranches and @bluetech. Featuring the signature psychedelic space-guitar soundscapes of Shane Cotee (aka @theadaptive) and masterful modular synthesis from Evan Bartholomew (aka @bluetech).

Limited double-vinyl release (300 copies), coming soon thanks to diggersfactory.com! Preorder the album at http://behindtheskymusic.com.

Behind The Sky

Passing Io (with Bluetech)

A seminal track from In The Branches, with layers of textures building and drifting into the dark Montana sky as embers crackle from the campfire.

This self-titled album is out now on all major platforms with two bonus tracks. The original 7-track version is now free to download on Bandcamp -- recommended for maximum quality. It will remain free until the Bandcamp 2018 release is published with an additional digital booklet with all-new visual accompaniment.

To Build A Star

Quiet Sector - To Build A Star

A rare live recording that I always love to come across, buried in the "unreleased" folders of my hard drives. It's time to share it. This will be lightly cleaned up and released on a compilation from In The Branches called "Live Moments" in the near future.
