*200 copies limited edition* Laden with abstraction - one foot in the ethereal, mysterious, and ancient past, the other arching into unknown futures yet to be seen - “Gatha” is a total world, imagistically rising through sound. Saz, tanpura, sarangi, autoharp, synths, bells, flute, percussion and numerous other acoustic sound sources, intertwine in a droning, delicately percussive tapestry, amounting to a brilliant musical hybrid, the depths of which few have realised since the days of La Monte Young/Theater of Eternal Music, Popol Vuh and Angus Maclise: an avant-gardism grown from mystical roots, fragments of ancient traditions which take the ear beyond the boundaries of time, pushing forward towards utopian dreams.

Brilliant, immersive, and challenging at every turn, Teemu Markkula and Ilkka Vekka’s “Gatha” presents a beacon of creativity, unfolding as expansive drone improvisations, filled with pulsing life and intricate sonic tapestries. Immersive, challenging, tense and overwhelmingly beautiful.
