Dark ambient label Cryo Chamber is about to release a new collaborative album named Yog-Sothoth - A Cryo Chamber Collaboration on 7th November. Yog-Sothoth brings two hours of dark soundscapes recorded by 20 ambient artists to pay tribute to H.P. Lovecraft.
Field recordings from foggy towns to desolate mountains. Deep space drone and crackling amplifiers combine into a black sky devoid of stars. Yog-Sothoth is a cosmic entity and Outer God of the Cthulhu Mythos and the Dream Cycle of H. P. Lovecraft. Born of the Nameless Mist, he is the progenitor of Cthulhu, Hastur the Unspeakable and the ancestor of the Voormi. Yog-Sothoth is omniscient, and is locked outside the universe, meaning he knows and can see all of space-time all at once, that there is no secret hidden from Yog-Sothoth.
In case you thought that this is a compilation album, it's not, it's a collaboration and huge undertaking. 20 artists linked studios and sound for over a year so that they could work with each other. This led to a deep exploration of the Mythos and Yog-Sothoth. Artists involved into Yog-Sothoth are: ProtoU, Sjellos, Alphaxone, Gydja, Kristoffer Oustad, Aegri Somnia, Kammarheit, Darkrad, Atrium Carceri, Randal Collier-Ford, Neizvestija, Council Of Nine, Dronny Darko, Flowers For Bodysnatchers, God Body Disconnect, Keosz, Kolhoosi 13, Northumbria, Sij and Ugasanie.
Yog-Sothoth - A Cryo Chamber Collaboration consists of two lenghty parts, an excerpt is available for listening in the player below. Artwork and mastering was done by Simon Heath (Atrium Carceri, Sabled Sun). The album is available for pre-orders at this location. Link
