It´s a Dark Ambient/Field Recording project about Nature and how Nature influence my inner
Feelings and Emotions.
2.In September you had released your first full length, musically how does it differ from the ep you had released in 2011?
Some Songs that you can find on the EP were thrown out and some new Songs were added to the project.
3.This is your first release in 7 years, can you tell us a little bit more about what has been going on during that time span?
Nothing special in the musical direction.
In the last three years i decided to focus on sketching and painting Minerals and Landscapes.
4.What are some of the themes and images you bring out with your musical sound?
The Main theme is the season Winter and somebody or somewhat is walking through a snowy Winterlandscape.
I also put in some local myths about a mountain King who lives inside the the Mountain
and hiding a secret Key.(Im Kristallsaal des Herrschers)
The Songs „Calling of Morpheus“ and „Vision Saturnia“ are about Dreaming or Visions of other Planets or Dimensions.
I wanted to create a mystic and dark atmosphere that can transport the Listener into a another World.
5.What is the meaning and inspiration behind the name 'Velvet Dream'?
I like the Ambient Album „Atropine“ from the Band Velvet Cacoon and Dream stands for the dreamy Atmosphere of the Album.
So i decided to put Velvet and Dream together

It shows a Mountain in the Austrian Alps called „Olperer“ that i visited on a stormy Winterday.

At the Moment i am not involved in any musical projects but i am open to work with a other
musicians.
8.Very little information is hard to find online about the musical project, can you tell us a little bit more about it?
An otherworldly creature is descending from the snow covered peaks of the Ore Mountains to deliver bleak ambient sounds for the impending winter.
Expect to be shrouded by winds as cold as the longest winter nights by the sonority echoing in the valleys of frost and ice.
9.The album was released on 'Into Endless Chaos', can you tell us a little bit more about this label?
A record label with the intention to release only the true dark music. Record label, booking agency and beyond...
