about

"...Synths wave and wander in the back of tracks, while melodic, melancholy instruments parade throughout to highlight the strange space you find yourself in. Everything is very intimate, with the saxophone holding onto most of the echo.

What will stick out, beyond the godly noises and droning artifice, is that the texture is the focus on these recordings. Painting a picture always works best with form and rigidity pushed out of the way a bit, and Babel gets that right on these sacred concoctions."
~ Gray Owl Point

Contains music previously released on the deleted albums INIZIO, COSMOS BLEU, COSMOS NOIR and THIS IS THE SACRED FIRE.

Due to Bandcamp upload file size limits (600mb) "Nächten" had to be cut into three parts. The full seemless mix can be found here:
