Abandoned Asylum

We are but shadows in this lonely world...

About Me

Abandoned Asylum is a dark ambient project that originated in 2003 after my first attempts of creating sounds more than a year before. It has evolved since then, after years of working and experimenting but the main idea remained the same.
Abandoned Asylum is a place, far, and yet close, somewhere around us and inside us. A place when we would like to hide and shelter. It's a deserted place, filled with sadness and loneliness, remnants of the past, haunted by memories. This place can be found anywhere, in the depths of haunted woods, ruins of old cathedrals, empty halls of rusty factories, or even at the end of the stars. Always there where our feelings bring us.
I'm intersted in designing graphics for projects/bands/labels, involving cd layouts, zines, banners, posters etc. You can find my works on my deviantART.com profile. Some of them are also here on my myspace profile.
I'm writing reviews and interviews for the Beast Of Prey Magazin. If any one is interested in having a review of his material in the magazin, please contact me.
Below You can find some people who I had the privilege to meet. And of course my publisher, Thonar Records as well as other befriended labels and people I meet on myspace. Check out their music.
