Artist: Havdis
P: 2012
Norwegian Havdis creates achingly beautiful aural paintings of a coastal world with streaks of romanticism and melancholy, a cold and unforgiving harsh environment of stark beauty and mystery for you to explore. Journey into the foggy waters and find a hidden archipelago to spellbind your soul.

Artist: Urenga
P: 2012
The heat is stifling, like a thick misty blanket the many leaves and dangling roots of clinging plants envelop you as you reach further into the vegetation of a seemingly endless rainforest. Small irritating insects buzz around you, a lone butterfly drifting away along the trail while you catch a small speck of colours in the corner of your eye, an unknown bird jumping deeper into the dense foilage. Whisking away the sweat from your eyes and forehead you finally emerge from the path and onto a small hill overlooking the dense jungle valley below. Mountains disappear into the distance and you can just make out the faint roar of the distant ocean.
The Urenga project draws its inspiration from nature and projects an aural sensation of a living, breathing world somewhere in the borderlands between dub techno and ambient. After the rain stops falling and the storm clouds withdraw beyond the horizon, the tide once again rolls in like a wave of evening colour glow. Hypnotizing and captivating music to spend half-awake in your bed through the thick tropical night. Comes in a jewelcase with a 12-page booklet.

Artist: Undara
P: 2012
Deep inside our basic subconscioussness there is a little known backdoor acting as a gateway into the collective memory of our evolutionary history. As this memory is triggered by seemingly random everday events we find ourselves falling deeper into a time and place long thought lost though never really completely forgotten.The Undara project is a loose constellation of musicians and artists hailing from Portugal. Setting an interdisciplinary path through musical arcanum and artistic obscurity their journey of discovery leads into a dark and unknown wilderness, tripping over smoldering rocks and stumbling over the very roots of mankind's origin. Hear the distant call of the untamed lands and feel the beckoning of long forgotten places to which mankind rarely chooses to venture. Comes in a jewelcase with a 8-page booklet.

Originally released in 2004 this remarkable album presents a flow of ambience carried ashore on the ethereal waves of a mysterious but recurring tide. Based around the ancient Indian rudra veena instrument this is a warm flood you do not want to ebb out. "Ocean" is produced in cooperation with Sangha Records and presented in memoriam to this talented musician.

Continuing on his musical wanderings as seen on "Alchemystery", Mathias once again travels down the obscured path of the shaman.

Artist: Seetyca
P: 2012
The Luminous Deep originally started out as a soundtrack for a short film of the same name by Amy Scott-Murray and Kevin Adams, which illustrates the cycle of life in the oceanic depths. Seetyca then revisited these recordings and expanded the theme into a full flegded album of immense hypnotic depth.When the final faint rays of light shine upon motionless limbs, colours begin to fade as the pelagic darkness bides a welcome with its cold and soft embrace. The descent continues, unevenly adrift on an unknown current. The boundaries of time and space no longer apply. Finally at rest on the distant seabed new life is destined to spring from this empty shell ane.

Artist: Patterns of the Sky
P: 2012
Looming underneath these towering creatures we normally refer to as clouds, it is easy to stop and stare with fascination and introspection at their cyclic drifting across the heavens. The pattern looks much the same from above, watching these silent skyriders fall prey to unrelenting winds, sweeping them away underneath and above, while they muster all their strength to stay with the sun. The Long Flight is a retrospective glance down the ambient side of Texas based project Patterns of the Sky and comes in a jewelcase with 16 page booklet.

Artist: Parikrama
P: 2013
The call of Parikrama can once again be heard as they have finally materialized here in the Manusyaloka, or our human realm again. After having seemingly phased out of our world the travellers have visited the vast continents circling Mount Meru and on their way back nearly got lost in the thick vegetation of the age old Himmaphan forest, having there encountered bizarre creatures that defy description.
Seasoned gterma veterans will remember these lands protected by the Four Heavenly Kings as well as the long and treacherous journey to the northern land of Uttarakuru. The path lays ahead...
