Kshatriy – Transforming Galaxy CD
Muzyka Voln
Ah, nothing like good ‘ol space ambient to help ground me this morning after a hard night of drinking. At least this stuff will soothe my headache appropriately. First off, love the packaging. Very tasteful, colorful, and psychedelic mix of images make up the artwork on this slick digipak.

Funerary Call (Vancouver, Canada)
Funerary Call – Transference From The Void
or click here for more audio samples
Drawing from a diverse palette of analog and digital hardware, found objects, field recordings and ritual implements, Funerary Call creates an unsettling ancient atmosphere that aims to transcend the perceptive listener, spiritually and emotionally – beyond all boundaries and limitations.
Channeling energy and inspiration from chthonic elements, the music celebrates the exploration of man’s darker half: the shadow-self. It is an aural descent into the underworld of unconscious and subconscious dimensions. Challenging the listener to …
