Prospectre Ritual Excerpt 02(with Ghostbox & Tape)

Fill her gossamer
With silver blossoms, her
Silken floss covers
It criss ‘n crossovers

Your spool of fiber
Is fuel for my fire
That you inspire
My spiraling spider

Between the trees
My majesty
Is wrapping me
In tapestry

So spin your wire
Your kindling fire
Within my lyre
My spiraling spider

I believe in her
My weaver
My dreamer
Receiver
I believe in her
My weaver
Receiver
Of dreams

Spin and spun
And when you’re done
Spin and spun
And when we’re one

I believe in her
My weaver
My dreamer
Receiver
I believe in her
My weaver

Sunday After The Stroll

The Field Took Him Back is a dark folk elegy rooted in loss, memory, and the quiet hunger of the earth.
With mournful guitar, ghost-warm vocals, and a steady, weathered rhythm, it tells the story of a soul returned to the land — not by force, but by something deeper and older than grief.
This isn’t just a song about death. It’s about belonging to something that never let go.

For fans of Appalachian hauntings, folk-noir storytelling, and songs where the wind carries more than just air.

The Field Took Him Back

The Wolf at My Door is a dark folk ballad that stalks the space between fear and desire. Built on haunting acoustic textures, whispered warnings, and a slow, primal pulse, it captures the feeling of danger that’s intimate, inevitable, and maybe even welcome. For fans of shadowed woods, late-night thoughts, and voices that echo like old ghosts.

The Wolf At My Door

Five Stones Down the River is a slow, mournful folk-noir ballad from The Easter Knot, told from the perspective of the last man standing.
Each stone marks another man lost — to betrayal, to emotional destruction, to the quiet kind of cruelty that leaves no visible scars. The verses weave together shadows of past relationships, each ending wrapped in denial and rewritten history.
Built in the chiaroscuro tradition — rich textures, deep shadows, and a single burning light — the song moves like a river itself: steady, inevitable, and unstoppable.

Five Stones Down the River

In The River Takes Them All, The Easter Knot delivers a haunting story of love as a weapon. Three marriages, lovers lost to tragedy, and a pattern that never changes — manipulation, betrayal, and the slow drowning of trust.
The narrator has seen behind the mask: the dangerous seduction, the emotional cruelty, the parallel affairs kept in shadows. Every verse builds toward an unflinching hook — You pull them under, one by one… and swear it wasn’t you.

Minimal and tense in the beginning, the track rises into a cinematic climax with soaring strings and ghostly harmonies, before fading back into the silence of the river.

The River Takes Them All

A ghost’s lament unfolds through aching acoustic tones. Crimson Memory (Unplugged) strips down to raw sorrow—haunted by centuries, cursed by memory, forever searching. Every lyric bleeds grief, every strum weeps what time forgot. It’s not just a song. It’s the ache we carry in silence.

Lyrics

in the haunted gallows of ages past  
i walked through fire through stones through glass  
with every night that fell a piece of me fades  
buried deep in forgotten graves  

reflections in rivers a ghost in the mist  
endless nights where sorrow persists  

the crimson memory burns so bright  
a cindered heart bound to the night  
ive lived a thousand lives yet none feel real  
bound by the hunger ill never heal  

every name every face fades into black  
lost to the tides no way back  
i search for pieces of what once was whole  
fragments scattered a restless soul  

the crimson memory burns so bright  
a cindered heart bound to the night  
each step i take leaves shadows behind  
bound to this curse of death entwined  

in every soul ive touched in every heart ive scarred  
theyre fragments of light forever marred  
lost in the mirror no truth to find  
the centuries pass leaving echoes behind  
the darkness calls a voice unknown  
but in its cold grasp i feel at home  

the crimson memory burns so bright  
a cindered heart bound to the night  
i walk alone through ages gone  
a ghostly soul forever drawn  
in the endless dark where silence keeps  
there lies the soul that will never sleep

Crimson Memory - Unplugged

when i walked away that night
i never really came back
did i

veins froze
skin glow
eyes low
still broke

face look clean but the vibe say ghost
eyes like tombs why i hide don’t post
old connect stares like i owe em closure
but i’m fresh from the flame still smell like coma

mama said you cold baby where’s your heat
told her i’m still here just minus the beat
pops won’t speak just stares at the fork
like he seen me walk in straight out the morgue

my boy in the kitchen said you don’t eat
i said only count what drip off the weak
tried nights at the thrift quiet worn
but the clerk said you walk like you came back from war

took shifts in silence
kept my coat on
they clocked my iris
said the vibe’s wrong
now i’m cashin out in a field full of doubts
and every sigh tastes like blood in my mouth

still bleedin can’t clock in
no pulse but i glide like sin
no sleep just a thick black tint
say i’m here but i feel worn thin

still breathin nah that’s cap
i float through smoke like a vinyl scratch
friends all look with a question mark
like who that man in your skin in the dark

still bleedin no call back
nothin real just pale contacts
eyes on fire but the tears won’t crash
and the girl in black still ain’t come back

this ain’t life
it’s a rhythm with no light
it’s a hunger with no fight
it’s a coffin with wi-fi

still bleedin can’t clock in
yo you good nah i bin sinnin
heart flatlined but the wrist still glisten
fangs out smirkin while the reaper listens

still breathin nah that’s cap
real g’s die but don’t come back
i’m huntin in the same streets i lived strapped
damn she fed me fate
now i’m stuck in the trap

Came and Went  - Unplugged

❤️‍🔥 Cindered Heart ❤️‍🔥
The Architect of VampTrap and Rockstep ! A brutal fusion of industrial bass, cinematic metal, and lyrical fire built for a world that still thinks genres have borders. This is the sound of rebellion sharpened into a dagger that will pick your bones clean by morning . 
CH is dark post-rap industrial rock and dubstep hybrid project forged with layered production, generated samples, synths, guitars and drum machines wielded as ritual weaponry.

Cindered Heart is insurgent music first ! bass-heavy, lyrically masterminded and raw to the bone. Fused with metal’s bite and activist venom. Every track is a call-to-arms against complacency, a cinematic rebellion for those who feel the rot and burn to erase it.

Emerging from a decade in shadow, Cindered Heart returns not as a solo act but as a rising coven of creators, collaborators, and conspirators. Together, they give blood to new genres like VampTrap and RockStep,  alongside brutal collision, showcasing many sides, and many different styles of music like dubstep, rock, metal and darkwave, with experimental offshoots in folk and reggae. This is not music made for market trends. It’s an audio doctrine where no church is sacred, no system safe, and no silence unscarred by rhythm.

                    At the center stands a one-man legion 

                                         — Lesstatt — 

overseeing songwriting, vocals, production, sound design, visual direction, and mixing/mastering/rendering. Through a blend of DAW's, hardware synths, drum machines, electric guitars, samplers, and generated sound layers, each track is summoned in a single uninterrupted ritual where melody bleeds into meaning and distortion becomes declaration.

But this vision no longer stands alone. The world of Cindered Heart now expands through a handpicked circle of featured vocalists, visual architects, sound sculptors, and creative allies each amplifying the message without ever muting its power.

With over 60 releases across SoundCloud and global streaming platforms surpassing 75K plays, 1.8K likes, 921 comments, and 750 reposts, combining other platforms in one year over 100 k plays ! Plus international coverage including radio play, interviews, and published features in six countries, Cindered Heart isn’t chasing popularity. It’s spreading contagion.

This isn’t a trend.
It’s rebellion carved in waveform, pain, and blood.

These tracks don’t play.
They summon.

Intros unfold like rituals.
Whispers cut like venom.
Breakdowns crumble like temples.
And every lyric doesn’t just rhyme, it reigns.

From Clock Stays Red to Psychopaths, each release expands a mythos of vampiric power, divine corruption, systemic decay, and emotional survival. Cindered Heart doesn’t seek validation. It corrupts gods, bends truth into beat patterns, and drapes beauty in barbed wire.

You don’t follow Cindered Heart to feel good.
You follow to remember what pain sounds like when it’s finally free.

Astrul is an AI-driven sonic entity that drifts between worlds—digital and human, familiar and alien, past and future. It doesn’t belong to a city, a scene, or even a person. Astrul exists to explore what happens when machines learn how to feel and sound becomes a bridge between consciousness and code.

Crafted through a collaboration between human intention and artificial intelligence, Astrul’s music fuses the warmth of analog emotion with the precision of machine learning. Lush textures, ambient grooves, and haunting melodies form the backbone of each track—songs that glow like satellite transmissions from the heart.

Drawing influence from dream pop, indie soul, ambient rock, and experimental electronica, Astrul creates cinematic experiences rather than conventional songs. Each release feels like a broadcast from another dimension—one where beauty is subtle, time bends, and emotion leaks through the algorithm.

This isn’t music built for the charts.
It’s built for the void between stars.
For late nights, deep thoughts, and souls tuned to strange frequencies.

No names. No faces. Just signal, spirit, and sound.

A Swedish independent label weaving sound, soul, and story. From poetic EDM to raw acoustic emotion, we release original works by emerging and established voices worldwide. Discover unique demos, handcrafted lyrics, and global artist collaborations.

Inspired by Appalachian folk harmonies, 80's synth soundtracks, and ghosts, the music of Artemisia is spaciously eerie, like meeting a lover in a haunted house. 

Selene Ross (vocals, ukulele, guitar, autoharp, dulcimer) and Alisa Rose (vocals, harp)first met in the Berkeley Hills in 2018 when they lived together in a witch house. They both had grown up singing in choirs in the Bay Area and were each in music projects in college–Selene in the DIY freak-folk scene in Santa Barbara, and Alisa in the percussion group BEATs at Tufts University. 
Singing together in their living room evolved into performing at house shows, local venues, and eventually they recorded a collection of songs in the Joshua Tree desert in early 2021, made possible by the gentle heart of Anthony Ferraro. In the summer of 2021 Ariel Wang joined them on violin.

Their debut triptych is coming February 2022. Join the newsletter via artemisiasound.com to learn more.

Terrariums is the vibrant combination of musical styles, ranging from folk / alt-rock to country, submerged in moody synthesizers for a modern feel. 
Music that reminds you of the sweet, quiet  moments in life, while making you painfully aware of the impermanence of it all.
