"White Maps" is a flowing sonic-flux in 5 ambient tracks. It displays a beautiful spectrum of circular waves-sounds with a rich range of dynamic frequencies. The intense and expanded landscapes project the usual Aglaia sound but with more emphasis on a "symphonic", and "choral" quality. File next to Alio Die, Antonio Testa or Oöphoi.
"Inframundis" ("inland universe", Latin) is a research of stalagmite and stalactite sounds mixed with textures and drone. It's a meditative record and it creates a balance between biosphere and technosphere. The CD sets free all its energies, its little/big sounds, its hidden atmospheres, and microharmonies. The sounds, music, make us come back to the past, offering us the view of a World. The sound evokes angelical moments between the imperceptible evolution of the sound of the sky and the ethnic roots, natural instrumental sounds creating atmospheres which evoke in our imaginary visions and images of the most far places. It is an alchemic project of ancestral sounds, deeply rooted in our unconscious. Ltd x 500 copies in an outsized package with inserts. Russian import.
