@eminerale I can only imagine how proud you must feel, to be able to write a book when you find it hard to be productive. Well done for persisting with it.

Cryo Chamber - Dark Ambient

Hey SG Land.
I wanted to write about something special to me that I think fits with the vibe and aesthetic of SG.
Many people love ambient or cinematic music, but the dark ambient from the Bandcamp label Cryo Chamber is extraordinary. They have a stable of incredibly creative ambient musicians creating deliciously dark, unsettling and storied music.
The image above is from ProtoUā€™s latest
