Thanks Bert!

Altus is proud to present INNERSPACE—a journey not beyond, but within. 70+ minutes of music in pure ambient form. It doesn't demand your attention, yet the sombre touch you've come to expect from Altus is here.

Now available on Bandcamp (44.1kHz/24-bit) FLAC and WAV
as well as free MP3

New Altus Single: "Until We Meet Again" on "Reflection" (Free Floating)

In case you weren't aware, the Free Floating label is closing its doors. Don't worry, the music will still be available, there simply won't be any new music released.

To commemorate, myself and 17 other artists have contributed new music for one final compilation, entitled Reflection.

Thank you, Brad, for all your hard work and time.

"Komorebi" review at Hypnagogue

I'm sorry to say I missed this review from Hypnagogue Reviews posted earlier this month. Thank you, John, for your kind words and touching review of Komorebi.

It means so much when listeners are able to connect with my music. Many of you have contacted me with similar words. You've allowed the music to interact with your experience, making it yours on a very personal level.

Introducing a New Project: Burlorke

Burlorke - With You, Without

In the 90s, before Altus, I was known as Goon. The music was beat-oriented, and I knew nothing about the ambient genre. Over the past five years or so, I've been wanting to explore other genres. What I've produced is multitude of electronic genres mixed together, but could be best described as synthpop.

The debut album With You, Without has an 80s synth-heavy vibe accompanied by leads that are reminiscent of late 70s Berlin school, but with a modern edge that doesn't emulate either time period. Top it off with a few tracks that contain vocoded lyrics, and end it with a cinematic climax.

Needless to say, it's nothing like the music of Altus, but I encourage you to check out the official page to hear the music, and keep up-to-date through the various social media options available. You'll note that, unlike Altus, there's no free download option. Instead, it's available to purchase through Bandcamp (the best choice), iTunes, and Google Music. You can also stream it on Spotify and YouTube.

Thank you for taking the time to check out this new project, and I hope you enjoy it.

If you're not a fan, don't fret. Altus isn't going anywhere.

Thank you!

Komorebi
木漏れ日
a Japanese word describing sunlight filtering through foliage
This new album by Altus is another great achievement in an already mind-blowing musical canon. His music evokes the picture painted by the title, taking the listener on a journey through the woods and one’s own soul…
