October Tidings

Two new releases out to celebrate that the dark season is throwing its misty veil all over. We aim to have a few more releases out later this autumn, keep an eye open for more good tidings as the umbra gets more dense over us.

[gterma015] : Peter Hennix - Ocean (Out now)  

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. Album comes in a jewelcase with a 16-page booklet.

[gterma020] : Mathias Grassow - Bloodmoon (Out now)

As the harvest season is over the cold and dark autumn is already creeping upon us. In October, the Hunter's Moon sits high atop the sky, bathing the landscape in its eerie bright light. The hunters would welcome this change which gives them a better chance of catching their next prey. Meanwhile, the people sit by candle light in their cottages on the edge of the forest, awaiting their soon return. Deep inside the woods, others bide their time. Album in jewelcase with 16 page booklet.

Report: Peter Hennix' epic rudra veena album "Ocean" reissued

The news have just reached gterma that the album "Ocean" by Peter Hennix has again risen from the ashes of obscurity. Originally released on CDr on new age label Sangha Records in 2004 this precious work is now again being made available commercially in digital format. Performed on the Rudra Veena, an ancient Indian classical instrument more or less phased out today, "Ocean" once again returns to life in its majestic and mind-altering splendor and comes most strongly recommended.
