*The tracks marked as hidden in the playlist above are present on the CDr version of the album but are not mentioned on the back of the cover.
This present material is a follow up to the former "Akashic Records" double CDr released two years ago. But most of the present channellings were actually recorded prior to the above mentioned material.
The current collection celebrates the healing & renewing power of the Total Solar Eclipse which took place on the 21st of August 2017, by symbolically releasing the past to invoke a clear space for future manifestations.
"The Akashic Records" cycle conceptually reflects the similarity between a vocal chanted mantra or a hypnotic tribal beat and the analogue generated oscillations which are able to create a transcendent meditative space, by the means of ceaseless repetition. The seeds of all existence have their origin into the unmanifested akashic realm - the void, which is in the same time the core of the infinite possibilities of expression and evolution, animated by the power of sound and vibration and by the karmic interdependent law of cause and effect.
The compositions are entirely generated by a few synthesizers (Korg MS-20, Vermona Mono Lancet, Analogue Solutions Station X, Folktek Microgarden, Casiotone 101), and most of them are single spontaneous takes, recorded raw without overdubs, keeping the primordial purity of the creative act, which dissolves in itself as it is accomplished.
The album can easily serve as a sound implement for contemplative, ritual or meditative practices.

❤️My original plan was to go through and buy individual tracks like I do with most compilation albums, but honestly there are just so many good ones that I wound up buying the whole thing. More than simple drones (though there are plenty of those, too), this album collects many of the best and most innovative dark ambient artists in one place, including many who are new to me. A must-have for any dark ambient fan's collection. Plushie Fanatic

❤️Somehow, this compilation manages to be even more impressive than the first. A great introduction to dark ambient for the uninitiated, and a must-have for longtime fans. Plushie Fanatic
You’d expect an album titled “Velociraptor” to be heavy and this doesn’t disappoint, as it’s jam-packed with serrated noise & feedback. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 22, 2023
