Gene Hex ● Evening of Light
Fellirium's ambient on Mermaids (ΠΑΝΘΕΟΝ, 2017) is like the sea: light on the surface and dark in the depths.
Subtle electric guitar swells, rainmakers, drones. Recalls the physical weight of the ocean at times, but also its oneiric layers.
Favorite track: Hidden Pond.
Rindenberg
Take a deep breath, then dive down into a world of wonders and magic, where the dream of the big fish of mermaids and mystical grottos became reality. Dreamy, warm and embracing, and - in any sense of the word - most breathtaking. What are you afraid of? Buy, and dive to the bottom of this amazing release.
Favorite track: Dreaming Fish.

Music that reveals horizons of unseen landscapes, silhouettes of sailboats travelling to distant lands, quietly and slowly emerging from the fog and thousands of blooming shades of sea blueness... Silent melodies and clear echoes are woven into net, that gently pulls the sea secrets from abyss of the depths. In the soft glares of evening light water surface turns into gold, gradually trickling down behind the horizon – later it will turn into constellations, in whose silhouettes one can read the stories of the past, the voices of long-forgotten legends. They will invite you to the other seas and lagoons, to the islands, where coastal rocks still remember every word whispered by sea waves from the beginning of all times...
today
i am a rustle of the sounds
in your hand,
and it became your science
to make shells
sky-blue fishes
whispered to me,
that our ship
was found in the sea,
where you and me
dreamed about quiet and peace
recently...

Музыка, вслед за которой раскрываются горизонты невиданных пейзажей, тихо и неспешно проступают силуэты парусников, отправляющихся в дальние страны и расцветает тысячами оттенков морская синева... Тихие переливы мелодий и прозрачное эхо сплетаются в сеть, медленно вытягивающую из глубин забытья бережно хранимые морской пучиной секреты. В мягких бликах вечернего света водная гладь превращается в золото, медлительными каплями стекающее за горизонт – позже они застынут и превратятся в созвездия, в чьих силуэтах можно будет прочитать истории прошлого, голоса давно забытых легенд. Они позовут за собой, в другие моря и лагуны, к островам, где прибрежные камни помнят каждое слово, нашептанное волнами с начала времен...
cегодня
я – шелест звуков
в твоей руке,
ставший наукой
делать ракушки
мне синие рыбы
шепнули на ушко,
что наше судно
нашли в том море,
где мы с тобой на днях
мечтали о покое...
