Just had a new release confirmed for the Hypnos sub label Secret Sounds by label boss Mike Griffin.
It is a full length album called Veils, Shadows - release date yet to be confirmed.
Track listing is 1) Slow Passing. 2) River of Souls. 3) Distant Paths. 4) Veils, Shadows.
Secret Sounds is the Hypnos CDR sub label used to introduce new artists to the Hypnos label with the possibility of a pressed CD, of different music, at a later date.
I am still in the process of working on the artwork with Mike for the CD.

Thanks for the support guys.
It's been quite strange for me because the releases on Umbra/Penumbra are very quiet on the public front, a deliberate part of Gigi's attitude, whereas Hypnos make quite an effort to get people interested in hearing what they put out.
I get 60 copies to sell, if anyone is interested let me know. It would be great to finance some gear acquisition syndrome instead of going into debt to do it.....

What Hypnos said about Veils, Shadows
2007. Subtle, but deep and mysterious. Seren Ffordd is a relatively new ambient minimalist based in Wales, best known for his releases on the Italian labels Umbra & Penumbra, and Veils, Shadows is his debut release on Hypnos Secret Sounds. He will also have a track on the upcoming Hypnos compilation Sounds of a Universe Overheard.
Describing Veils, Shadows, Seren Ffordd himself says: "I had the idea of the title first, and wanted to explore something that had many shades and layers -- with some slow movements and some drones, but also some dynamics and unexpected changes. I wanted some pleasant harmonics but also edginess, sounds shifting in a way that could be dream-like but not soporific, like shadows coming out of the mists into more solid form before drifting off again... Overall Veils, Shadows is about other realms and perceptions."
Seren Ffordd is one of those few artists perfectly in tune with what we're trying to do here at Hypnos, which is explore atmospheres that are dark without being "industrial" or intentionally abrasive, rather more hypnotic and dreamy, with a dose of the surreal. We're pleased and excited to introduce his work to those listeners who are familiar with Hypnos, and interested in sound worlds like this, but who have not yet heard this particular sound. We're sure Seren Ffordd will end up being acclaimed and much-discussed in coming years.

I have some copies of this from Hypnos, £10 including postage - let me know if you are interested.
I am still waiting to verify a paypal account but am willing to see about other ways.
