Absolutely epic atmosphere and massive sounds...! This beautiful album forces you to ponder on the conflict between man and nature; a futile struggle.
Favorite track: Quintessence.

about
Shrine debuts on Cryo Chamber with the wall of sound heavy album Quintessence
In a world like this where the fundamentals of creation and the origin of life still remain beyond the scope of rational comprehension, this album will take you on a metaphysical journey into the primordial chaos of the building blocks of the Universe. It is based on the concept of the Four Elements - Earth, Water, Wind, Fire, plus the Fifth Element, Quintessence, which here represents the abiogenesis, and organic life itself.
Each track is here named after a specific Element and the titles are in Old Greek with Latin transcription. A rich texture of field recordings play carefully against strange instruments and haunting voices against a massive wall of drone.
Recommended for fans of textural walls of sound.

What Eusebes throws into the mix however, is the kind of sound that you might hear when one spaceship docks with another, a kind of vigorous thump that goes way beyond straining superstructure. I felt that this was an introspective track, but one that creates the feeling of something coming. A bit like being alone in your house and thinking you hear a door opening downstairs, but on a space-station, with ships and time-warps.

Beautifully dark album, filled with emotion and imagery. My first from this artist and will not be my last.

S O L A R I S
by Flowers for Bodysnatcherssupported by 68 fans who also own “Quintessence”
A tense, almost neo-Lynchian, moth-swarm of ominous dark ambient that would be a fitting soundtrack to sleep paralysis
go to album -
In the music of Paul Jordan, digitally manipulated field recordings become striking electronic songs that feel eerie and surreal.
go to album -
Dreamy ambient from Tokyo's Betts(JP) that captures the impermanence of emotion in elegant washes of synth and field recordings.
go to album -
The album title stands for “Congratulations You Ruined Everything,” and its songs are tense and unnerving electronic journeys.

I realy love this album. It's sad and creepy, yes, but to the point of harmony and beauty.
