Updated on 25 March 2008

Principium Somniferum DVD

The Principium Somniferum DVD is follow-up release to the CD released almost a year prior. It is a DVD+/-R (recordable) disc in NTSC (North American) video format, which contains custom-designed computer graphics to go with the original CD musick release. The DVD contains all the same tracks, etc. as the CD but provides a visual backdrop to enjoy along with the musick.

Created with the assistance of Venice Treacle and bolstered by the power of Space Echo, this CD moves in a direction similar to Austere's 2003 and 2004 CDs "Remission" and "Remittance" in focusing entirely on guitars (electric and bass), eschewing synths and drum-like percussion while seeking out a beatless and more trance-inducing, floating, other-worldly sounds. A moving, heady album (as contrasted to just a collection of tracks), listeners are drawn away to The Village in a place and time unknown to a unique experience that rides the border between drone rock, trance musicks and quiet instrumental ambient.
