Ambient album Long Whale Song by russian musician Symphocat was released on the label Simphonic Silence Inside at number 158. The album includes 10 songs with a total duration of more than 2 hours. "...Long, far, drawn-out songs of whales, all these epithets are well applicable for this release in which I wanted to reveal the sensual, submerged and vulnerable side of perception of the world. Whales for me as a prototype of inner loneliness, willpower, desire to learn and find their way in the ocean of life, to swim to the beckoning lighthouses and new shores. Of course I would like to note the social significance of the album, as these compositions drawing attention to the pollution of the oceans. Once again to remind of violation of an eco-system of a planet, invasion of a civilization and harmful influence on the natural process. It is also worth adding that the compositions are made in the style of ambient 80s, the times when the sea was plowed by the researcher Jacques-Yves Cousteau on the ship Calypso. And also created musicians Wendy Carlos and Holger Czukay, to whose creativity I also want to dedicate this album...".
Эмбиент альбом Long Whale Song от российского музыканта Symphocat вышел на лейбле Симфоническая Тишина Внутри под номером 158. Альбом включает в себя 10 композиций общей продолжительностью более 2х часов. "...Длинные, дальние, протяжные песни китов, все эти эпитеты хорошо применимы для этого релиза, в котором хотел раскрыть чувственную, погруженную и ранимую сторону восприятия мира. Киты для меня выступают словно прообраз внутреннего одиночества, силы воли, стремления познавать и находить свой путь в океане жизни, плыть к манящим маякам и новым берегам. Конечно я бы хотел отметить и социальную значимость альбома, так как этими композициями хотел бы обратить внимание на загрязнение мирового океана. Еще раз напомнить о нарушениях эко-системы планеты, вторжения цивилизации и пагубного влияния на естественную природу. Так же стоит добавить, что композиции выполнены в стилистике эмбиента 80х, времен когда морские просторы бороздил исследователь Жак-Ив Кусто (Jacques-Yves Cousteau) на корабле Калипсо, творили музыканты Венди Карлос (Wendy Carlos) и Хольгер Шукай (Holger Czukay), творчеству которых так же хотел бы посвятить этот альбом..." - Илья Symphocat.

Syzygy's background drone synth are dreamy, sounds like Brian Eno(at the Drone bassline & Field Recording mixing pitch for rhythm making) or Global Communication - 12 18(for inserted female vocal).
Sometimes I can't stop your tracks, most of songs really have organic synthesis from nature :D SomaFM.com listener
Written in the wake of a life-threatening car accident, “riss” offers industrial tones both harrowing and ruminative. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 21, 2022
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. 53Guitarman
