When the angelic voices descend down the cloudy skies, the monks of O.A.C. are gathered for the Catechism of Salvation. Massive cathedrals are echoing with the distant chants that connect the dark Past with the perhaps even darker Future. The cogs and mechanisms of garganutan machines, blessed by the Techno-arcane preists, are moving with the flow of the Cosmic beat and the sacred chantings.

This album is partially and indirectly inspired by the fascinating Warhammer 30k/40k universe and lore.

The Classic Dark Ambient Masterpiece Reissued as Double LP & CD

Originally released in 1999, Sephiroth’s "Cathedron" remains a landmark in the dark ambient and tribal industrial genres. Now, this long-time classic returns in a stunning double LP and CD reissue, offering both longtime fans and new listeners the chance to experience its immersive depths like never before.

Created in the early 90's by Ulf Söderberg, Sephiroth was born from a profound fascination with myths, rituals, and ancient monuments left behind by lost civilizations. Inspired by the works of Graeme Revell, Lustmord, and Nurse With Wound, the album unfolds as an auditory journey through the inexorable passage of time, evoking images of sunken cities, fallen towers, and overgrown ruins swallowed by nature’s relentless grasp. Dark, eerie soundscapes, ritualistic percussion, and field recordings from Cairo, Iceland, and the Nordic wilderness converge to form an unforgettable sonic experience.

This new edition brings the album to life in its most immersive format yet, with bonus material and expanded packaging that pays homage to its legacy. A must-have for any dark ambient collection, this reissue cements Cathedron as an essential masterpiece of the genre.

Kammarheit - All Quiet In The Land of Frozen Scenes

REM Sleep

28 Sept - Separation

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.

Aokigahara (青木ヶ原), known as the Suicide Forest is a 35-square-kilometre forest that lies at the northwest base of Mount Fuji in Japan. Aokigahara forest is dense, shutting out all but the natural sounds of the forest itself. The forest has an historic association with demons in Japanese mythology, and it is a notoriously common suicide site. 

Duncan Ritchie explores the long journey to Aokigahara through soundscapes ripe with lonely pianos on textural backdrops. Duncan spent countless hours field recording on the voyage between Tokyo to Aokigahara which creates the perfect atmospheric companion to the intricate instrumental approach. This is a beautiful dark ambie

Flowers For Bodysnatchers - Prisoner Of Night And Fog

A track from the upcoming Desiderii Marginis album 'Procession'.

Silent Messenger

The third album from Metatron Omega continues the story of Sanctum and Gnosis Dei. The hermit travels beyond enlightenment, and deep into the perception of the Unknowable. 

To be “illuminated” means that one discovers something that wasn’t known before, but by doing this, one is casting a shadow upon something else. The eternal light shines upon the unveiled depths of the soul. While it's reflection weaves into monastic atmospheres. 

Witness the chants of hypnotic choirs from the cosmic Cathedral at the end of life. The everlasting voices of monks lost in space and time, searching for knowledge as they echo through dimensions. 

The “Illuminated ones” chant in hypnotic choral unison for the salvation of Mankind’s universal spirit. By transcending everything that is material. Illuminating the spirit, they cast a Great Shadow upon the world. 

Recommended for fans of dark cathedral music, deep drone and brooding choirs.

Available in 24 bit
