Album "Abstrakter Wald" (Abstract Forest) based on the field recordings that were made during live ritual in Winter 2010 a.y.p.s. - small live performance on which also played their tracks a few other projects (all includes Sergiy Fjordsson as member): Saturn Form Essence (Space Drone Ambient), Gjollheimr (Raw Black Metal / Dark Ambient ), Anu (Ritual Dark Ambient) and Silver Sphere Moon (Ritual Folk Ambient). Recorded with only keyboards, microphones and reel-to-reel/open-reel audio tape recorder in pseudo-stereo/mono mode, somewhere in the deep and forgotten woods of Carpathian region, Ukraine. Temperature were fucking low, around -15/-20c, as well as snowfall, so recording were made in extreme way. All sounds represent a real-time-live-recording, along with background sounds of the open space and natural acoustic vibrations of the empty dark woods. Mastered from original tape reels in Winter 2010 at Moloch studio. All music written and recorded by Sergiy Fjodsson. All photos that were used on the cover inlays were made in the woods of Carpathia by Sergiy Fjordsson.

Microcassette comes with black/white pro-printed insert (or Brown Eco Craft paper insert) in clear hardshell case.
