LABYRINTH, Chris Russell’s debut solo release on Spotted Peccary Music, features a mosaic of constantly and methodically evolving synthesizer pads. Drawing back soft curtains of sound, Russel subtly illuminates the symbolic spiritual journey reflected in the project’s title.
“Labyrinths have been in use for over 4000 years,” Russell explains. “Their basic design is fundamental to nature, as well as many cultures and religious traditions. Whatever one’s religion…walking the labyrinth clears the mind and gives insight. It calms people in the throes of life’s transitions. Each of the tracks on this album is to represent different twists and turns on the journey to the center and back. An audio soundtrack for Circling to the Center of oneself.”
Indeed, LABYRINTH is a subdued but enveloping work that, like some of Russell’s influences – Steve Roach, Max Corbacho and Darshan Ambient – is an immersive experience, not sparse in sound or texture, but filled with waves of rich harmonic color that move through light and darkness, facilitating a deep sense of relaxation and contemplation.

The Sleepwalker’s Ocean
by Forrest Fangsupported by 9 fans who also own “Labyrinth”
Choosing a favorite album by Forrest Fang is a little bit like choosing a favorite child, I mean, you love them all in their own way, right? Each of his albums has a particular charm and appeal, but if pressed I would suggest that "The Sleepwalker's Ocean" is a particularly high spot in his catalog, taking the listener on a fantastic musical journey, a trip through undiscovered soundscapes and new musical horizons. It's a trip that's well worth taking if you haven't already...

Zones, Drones & Atmospheres
by Steve Roachsupported by 8 fans who also own “Labyrinth”
This album will grow on you. Listen in headphones or earbuds. It will blow your mind. Steve has so many amazing textures and dimensions on this release. It's hard to pick a favorite track. Probably in his top 5, if there is such a thing.

I am a spaceship drifting in the cosmos. The music Max Corbacho creates is beautiful, delicate with an expansive soundstage that draws you in deeper and deeper into the composers vision. A musical journey that never fails to leave me just wanting more.
