The Hermit by Surya Kris Peters

For the digital version please go to https://electricmagicrecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-hermit

"Introspective, contemplative, evocative: SURYA KRIS PETERS is the solo project of Samsara Blues Experiment-mainbrain Christian Peters. His first LP "The Hermit" offers a selection of the previously only digitally released albums "Status Flux" (Aug 2015) and "Moonstruck" (Jan 2016). “The Hermit” can be seen as a summary of Peters´ musical influences reaching from childhood memories of Mike Oldfield and Bedrich Smetana to adolescent impressions by Trance To The Sun and Saturnia, sprinkles of Krautrock (esp. Popol Vuh and Klaus Schulze), and actual favorites like synthesizer drone-minimalist Eliane Radigue and sounds from Far East by artists like Osamu Kitajima and Ananda Shankar. While being rooted in the early days of electronic music Surya Kris Peters yet takes on a different approach. He masters to add his own perspective to music without being nostalgic."

This version of the album has additional tracks to those that appear on the vinyl.

"The first thing to remark on about the music on its album it its sheer beauty. This is an album that you put on and immediately feel at one with. It is an album that seems to understand you, and the sheer act of listening somehow makes you feel lighter.....it is in essence a sort of sonic hermitage into which you can retreat and re-energise"
