Unearthly soundscapes,
ethereal atmospheres, primeval drones, and evocative orchestrations that
combine a wide range of sounds, textures and moods into a cohesive listening
experience.
The first Galactic Anthems album begins with Spastik Teloasis, which
launches you into strange and interesting new sonic territory. Moving
through the void, you are transported to a smoky lounge in a distant space
station and experience the space-jazz flavored Orbital Bop. Journey reminds
you of your insignificance in the cosmos through the use of minimalist waves
of sound over a resonant bass. Your passage through the Haunted Desert is
filled with shifting soundscapes of the dark desert night.
An Uncertain Future awaits you as you continue your interplanetary
pilgrimage with elongated chordal streams over a subtle rhythm track.
Tortured Souls unleashes wails of distress over pounding primeval drums.
Midnight Mist rehydrates you with an airy molecular wash of cleansing
tonality. You know you’re in uncharted territory hearing the shifting
blocks of sound pass through time in Way Out There.
Frozen Wasteland leaves you as cold as the vacuum of space itself with eerie
tribal drums and the cries of the solitary wolf. A visit to the Black Nebula
awakens the senses with an array of tingling pulsations with subtle
suspension. And Distant Memories evokes peaceful, calm feelings of time
spent near an ocean.
