"Arguably the largest Dark Ambient project to date, the Cthulhu album is a collaboration between 12 artists who all worked together to pay tribute not only to Lovecraft, but to what lurks beyond our colorful illusion."

Cthulhu | Cryo Chamber

Pretty impressive compilation for those interested in dark ambient. It captures the Cthulhu vibe very nicely, I think and is a great compliment to the oncoming season.

Thanks for the heads up on this. Looks like it will be an awesome CD. Simon Heath is putting out some of the best DA these days.

Another track you could add to this collection is "R'Lyeh" by Kammarheit from the CD At the Heart of Destruction.
Awesome, I'll check that one out. I'm always on the lookout for quality DA stuff! Thanks!

Interesting they promote as a 24bit company, but are selling a CD in 16bit. The only 24bit option appears to be FLAC. If instead that was a SACD it would be incredible.
Agreed. They require everything on their label to be produced in 24-bit, but I find it a bit strange they don't offer more listening options that support it considering it is a selling point for them. But, I personally don't really have a stake in the argument since I'm not sold on 24-bit anyhow.

Most of the recording artists and record label owners I know remain unconvinced of the need for 24 bit audio as a consumer format.

Kind of Blue is an all-time favorite. I'd heard an earlier Peter Ulrich album (used to sell a lot of Projekt label CDs around that time) but didn't know there was another. I'll have to check it out!

- I've burned a copy of this, and I'm rigging up a cd player in the garage so that tonight's visiting trick or treaters will be serenaded by the otherworldly rumbles and dread-soaked droning of mighty Cthulhu.
