This Is Darkness
The technical prowess of Visions matched with the cosmic energy of Phurpa takes this particular sort of sacral/ritual ambient to truly impressive heights. I, also, can’t help but feel that their hearts are absolutely behind every second of this.

[ΡΕΘΙ]
Visions and Phurpa, now that's a felicitous collaboration. On Monad (2018, Cyclic Law) we hear that meld: misty(c) chants piercing through thick drones. In the tradition of self-effacing ritual music, somehow gentle.
[ΜΕΛΙ likes the dark bits] Favorite track: Fohat.

about
Celebrating its 100th release, Cyclic Law presents an exclusive collaboration between label head Frederic Arbour’s long standing project VISIONS and Russia’s most enigmatic ritual formation, lead by Alexey Tegin, PHURPA. Merging PHURPA’s penetrating organic meditational chants and shamanic percussive elements with the slow-shifting, multi-layered textural drones of VISIONS, this unique joining of forces resulted in a vastly expansive and time bending opus. Channeled throughout are primordial sonorities to alter ones deeper psyche, a spiritual ascent unifying with the whole, the elemental cosmic life force that transpierces us, to the monad of creation.

Yog-Sothoth knows the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the key and guardian of the gate. Past, present, future, all are one in Yog-Sothoth. He knows where the Old Ones broke through of old, and where They shall break through again.

I love doom jazz, noir, and Atrium Carceri. The three together with Cities Last Broadcast AND God Body Disconnect is WOW. And A Thousand Empty Rooms is, or I hope is, the soundtrack of my soul.
