Ugasanie - Heart of the Swamp

Belarus is a land of captivating contrasts, where sprawling lakes, vast swamps, and dense forests create a landscape both enchanting and mysterious. As if veiled in a cloak of ancient lore, this country's terrain whispers tales of bygone eras, especially those from the period of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. Here, amidst the tranquil waters of its expansive lakes and the eerie tranquility of its endless swamps, the legends of old find their home. But it is in the heart of the dark forests where the most intriguing stories unfold, where ancient myths come to life. Among these, the legend of Tsmok, the dragon of Polish Belarusian mythology, reigns supreme. Embark on a journey through Belarus, and you'll find yourself immersed in a world where the lines between reality and myth blur, where the echoes of the past resonate through every rustle of leaves and ripple of water.

At the edge of all mortal roads stands Hekate—the torch-bearing goddess of thresholds, crossroads, and the secret ways beneath the world. In ancient rites, she is the guide through places where the living and the dead overlap, the guardian who alone can grant safe passage or deny it without a word. It is she who holds the kleidouchos, the key to the realms below, and it is she who offers the solitary token required to cross the gates into the underworld. This release follows the listener into the dim glow of her lantern, where reality thins and the familiar dissolves. The soundscape twists through paths once walked by restless shades, where the whispers of the dead cling to stone and the air hums with the weight of ritual. Each track is shaped by the ancient epithets of Hekate—Phosphoros, the Light-Bringer; Chthonia, of the Earth Below; Propylaia, Keeper of the Gate. Drifting drones and cavernous resonance evoke the desolate passages she reveals, while distant percussive echoes mimic the slow, ceremonial tread of those who follow her willingly into the dark. Shadows lengthen, time warps, and the world above fades into a low, trembling memory. This work is an invocation—an auditory descent honoring the goddess who stands between realms. It captures the moment when she turns toward you in the crossroads silence, offers the token of passage, and beckons you forward into the ancient depths where few return unchanged. Recommended for fans of dark ambience, deep drones, and dark soundscapes.

The Icarus-9 mission was supposed to be humanity’s triumph, a sterile laboratory orbiting in the endless dark. But when Dr. Elias Varn pushed his experimental reactor beyond its limit, something was birthed — a nightmare of twisted flesh and shifting form. It tore through the crew without mercy, rending bone from sinew, turning the pristine decks into a blood-soaked labyrinth. No weapon could kill it, no prayer could drive it away. By the time Elias realized his mistake, there was nothing left but screams lost in the vacuum — and the creature, nesting in the heart of his dying ship.
