---------------------------------------------
This track comes from "Trichurch of Katehon", new album by Monasterium Imperi. An immersive ambiental journey into the distant world, where colossal shrines resonate of hymns to the Supreme One. Ancient hieropriests of Katehon lament and rejoice upon ethereal soundscapes, echoing through the Sky-Atrium. The traveller enters the Citadel of Azun, a thousand-year old giant citadel-church, built to honor the path of the Righteous. Empty halls, from which the Forgotten Kings once ruled the Dominion, now serve as sacred places of worship. Soulships are arriving from the north bringing the "Last One-hundred", group of remaining pilgrims who visit from the distant places.
Musically, it can be described as dark ambient rich with dark choirs, nostalgic gregorian-lke chants and long & atmospheric, ethereal pads.
---------------------------------------------
The work is partially and indirectly inspired by the fascinating Warhammer 40,000 universe and lore. It may as well serve as a soundtrack when reading the literature/playing the game/praying to the Emperor or pondering about the Grimdark future. Aside from that, it does not represent a direct, straightforward building up upon the lore, and is in no way affiliated with GW and related trademarks.

When I'm looking for ethereal ambience THIS is what I mean. Wow. Just wow. I get very easily distracted by music but this stuff completely puts me in the zone for reading, sleeping, creating or simply relaxing. It's like you truly put some divine essence into this.

[@jakefrost7404]

*_As bleak as much of 40k might be, there is also just as much splendor to be observed in the setting. You do a fantastic job of capturing that splendor, Prometheus, thank you for sharing it with all of us._*

[@shawnledragonian]

Well said my brother. Those of us that gather here search for such moments.

[@prometheusstudioambient]

Glad to know that. Thanks very much.

[@foxrobinson3582]

The majesty, the horror. The unflinching courage of all our heroes as they stare into the wondrous,terrifying abyss of stars and roar their defiance. For all it's infinite might and eternal hate, the ruinous powers will never quench that light. He is with us. Brothers and sisters, to arms!

[@XeLYoutube]

yes this is very polished and well thought, the chord progression is so royal and expressive, the hero journey segmentation in the scale, win lose recovery hope llol

[@xristospalaiokostas8903]

Beautiful, peaceful and haunting, it makes you to travel in dreamy and distant places. May the Emperor guide your inspiration and mind for even more greater musical composition.

[@prometheusstudioambient]

Many thanks for those wishes. The Emperor protects!

This is my Christmas music. This music sets a good tone for a new world that we never had before. Patients, love, strength, honor, and peace.

I listen to this like 10 times a day. It never goes stale. It is so powerful, has an ethereal quality, transports me to an isolated planet in another galaxy 10k years in the future where all I am aware of is serenity

[@markpalka6382]

This is genuine sacred music! And as a Christian myself I will attest that this sort of music makes for a genuine spirit of reverential worship and praise to Almighty God which is sorely needed these days especially, unlike that recycled rock and roll which passes for Christian music these days!

[@ТётяСвета-б5х]

I don't love any music and don't listen it. But your music I listen. It helps me to decompressing my brains.

I was thinking of how many people could have had their lives changed if only for a day if this was available pre youtube. The only thing we had was a program on public radio called Hearts of Space and it only came on Sunday nights. I used to tape it with my tape recorder as a child because there was no cds and it sure didnt come out on tape or Emperor forbid vinyl.

"I am what remains of the Song of Salvation. I am His will rendered in silent light, sent forth to guide a billion vessels home. I am what remains of the Emperor now that His body is dead and His mind is dying. It is a death that may take an eternity, but it will come. And then I will fall silent with His final thought. [...] I stare into eternity and witness the dance of daemons. I sing forever into the endless night, adding my melody to the Great Game. I am Imperious, the Avatar of the Astronomican." *- Imperious, Avatar of the Astronomican*

I didn't put the commercial, it's the new YT policy to automatically put ads on non-monetized channels as well. You're punishing the creator and the video content with giving thumbs down, not the real culprit.

just the same few bars over and over

Wow ANOTHER ad. Every 5 min. Pathetic. Ill never use any music from this channel again.

Who said you can use the music from this channel anyway?

[@lukerousso1914]

There is the dark side and there is the light side. We may not be perfect, we may sin; yet the distinction is clear. There is a channel of good, and a channel of evil. We are but receivers of these frequencies, antennae if you will. Whichever path you choose left or right, just know that it was voluntary. My fetishes include shapes and feet. 🐾
