Taron - Stealing the Ragnarök

Battleworld takes its pulse from Marvel’s fractured multiverse, a realm where worlds collide, merge, and fight for survival. Earth-616 channels this chaos into dark minimal techno: metallic rhythms, echoing kicks, and hypnotic grooves that feel like stepping into a cosmic arena, where every beat is a battle and every drop a decisive strike.

Battleworld

A continuation of Violet, blooming into resilience. From grief to hope, the city’s noise fades, leaving only the heartbeat of renewal.

Midnight_Express

Evergarden

Frenetic beats, masterfully sampled Japanese flute, and deep traditional voices collide in a high-energy blend. Imperfection is crafted into perfection, echoing the district’s chaotic spirit raw, dynamic, and impossible to tame.

San'ya

I’m the Ghost… in the Shell returns in a rare Breakbeat minimal cut, uniting Dark Earl, Lotus Pastel, and Ghost of Maya for the first time on record. Their friendship has stretched for years, crossing paths in shadows and echoes, but never converging in one song until now.

Here the beat sharpens, stripped down to raw pulse, carrying three voices that weave into each other like fragments of the same dream. Dark Earl’s alien confession meets Lotus Pastel’s spectral warmth and Ghost of Maya’s elusive presence. Together they shape a track that feels at once fragile and unstoppable, an answer not just to messages but to history itself.

This meeting is more than collaboration. It is resonance, the long-awaited alignment of three hidden worlds.

Dark Earl, Lotus Pastel, and Ghost of Maya chose to merge because they share the same vision: that their presence is not to be consumed as biography, but to be lived as art.

This collaboration is an indirect reply to the curiosity of fans. Not everything must be known, verified, or exposed. Their existence is a personal matter, their names only roles inside a wider universe. What matters is the message: sound as a mirror, art as the only truth.

I’m the Ghost… in the Shell (feat. Lotus Pastel, Ghost of Maya)

faring over the lake (Naviarhaiku 612)

quiet valley

A four-minute ambient journey built from four evolving one-minute drones — each exploring a distinct emotional landscape.
Major to minor, light to dark, tension to abstraction:

00:00 – 01:00 → Luminous, joyful
01:00 – 02:00 → Dark, melancholic
02:00 – 03:00 → Anxious, tense
03:00 – 04:00 → Abstract, strange

Synthesizers and acoustic instruments blend seamlessly to create a warm, organic soundscape — bowed upright bass, harmonica, harmonium, and Tibetan bowls intertwine in a meditative yet cinematic flow.
Perfect for moments of reflection, atmosphere, and deep listening.
