Series 05 by The Vega Chronicles

This series was originally conceived resulting from a post on the ambientonline.org forum way back in 2014. The original thread is no longer available but a good many artists came onboard to execute the science fiction concept I had in mind at the time.
It was originally released in early 2016 and since I have gotten a great number of followers since those early days on bandcamp, I decided to upload the series here for pay what you want.
I had created 24 hours of drone material using my Ensoniq TS12 synthesizer and some other audio processing software which I subsequently sent out to several members of the ambient community and the results are a stunning collection of soundscapes and immersive drones in a 6 volume series under the project name of the Vega Chronicles.
You'll find links to the artist pages in the credits of each volume and I encourage you to follow them and support their amazing work if you're able to do so.

Prologue
In the far distant future, a select group of people begin having strange dreams and visions of a distant alien culture.
In the night sky they see a faint flickering glow, the last great gasp of a collapsing star, Vega.
As the glow weakens, the visions and dreams multiply, compelling some of the people to use sound to transcribe these visions and share them with others.

Years before, on a small planet orbiting the star of Vega, the sentient inhabitants had evolved to be able to communicate vast distances through a form of telepathy.
Discovering Vega would soon destroy the only home they knew, the best astronomers of their civilization searched the heavens and located a few other beings who would be able to receive these telepathic transmissions.

The civilization gathered the most talented, learned, and wise teachers, historians, and artists to transmit the history of the planet; from its distant past to the turbulent present before the dying star consumed their world.
The only hope for their race to be remembered was if an alien species could understand, translate, and share this cultural archive with others. This was the last and best chance for them to be able to say "we were here".

Foreword
This project is an archive of translations of those transmissions that are only now reaching Earth after traveling the interstellar distances that separated our two worlds.
Artists from around Earth have been in contact with each other in order to compile an archive containing this treasure of information.
This archive is now known as The Vega Chronicles.

The Vega Chronicles is presented in a series of 6 tomes, divided into 4 chapters each.
In total, they comprise a 24-hour aural encyclopedia of culturally and historically significant events of this world which was blown into oblivion by its star.

Because of the effort of this group of highly skilled artists, engineers, teachers, cultural anthropologists, and other great minds from across all manner of sociological and theological disciplines of this far away planet, it's culture will live on in you, the final witnesses to a planet's culture and its inhabitants, now gone but not forgotten.

I am an ambient artist who composes in many sub-genres such as dark and light ambient, solo piano, cosmic drone, avant-garde and noise music both as a solo artist and as a collaborating partner. My music is created with intentionality, creating a sonic space for the unfolding of personal stories as well as exploration of spiritual and cultural themes which profoundly influence our society.
