Wrotycz Records from Poland announces its second release. It’s a cd called “Antarabhãva” / “Six realms” by Contemplatron, containing over 70 minutes of dark ambient inspired by “The Tibetan Book of the Dead” and based upon the Buddhist tradition.
"This is a kind of a soundtrack for the religious rituals. The inspiration for the first part of the album was derived from the “Book”, read to the dying person, describing the process of dying and the posthumous states of mind. The Sanskrit word “Antarabhãva” means “the intermediate state” and in particular refers to the state between the death and the moment of the next birth. This is the sonic journey of the soul wandering through the nooks of another worlds. The second part describes the six realms which, according to the Buddhist tradition, symbolizes six destructive emotions: ignorance, hatred, enslaving desire, jealousy, pride and greed. Each track is dedicated to the different emotion and all of them sounds like tunes from the outer space."
The cd comes in a cardboard sleeve and is limited to 500 copies.
