Nebulæ - The Path of White Clouds
Artist: Nebulæ
Title: The Path of White Clouds
Label: Hypnos Recordings
2008.
Some time during 2008, Hypnos will be re-releasing this album, originally released by the Stella Maris label. "Nebulæ" (previously known as "Nebula")
is an ambient supergroup of sorts, featuring Oophoi, Tau Ceti, Mathias Grassow, Klaus Wiese, Lorenzo Pierobon, Luna, and Mauro Malgrande.
OK, I'll admit to not having any idea who those last 3 are, but the first 4 are pretty significant! This is a beautiful, ethereal and abstract ambient
recording, which certainly deserved greater attention than it received prior to the demise of Stella Maris (which existed only long enough to release
2 Nebula albums). For more information about the original release, look here: http://www.discogs.com/release/740659
