Oprahel If there was a genre out there called 'Clark Ashton Synth', this would certainly be the flagship. Each track uniquely captures the individual essence of each story, as well as Smith's overarching tone of somber terror and heart-wrenching beauty. The album artwork is incredible. I sincerely pray to see an 'Averoigne' and 'Zothique' album in the future.

Thank you Yuggoth Records for making this hidden gem available! Favorite track: A Vintage From Atlantis.

Televiper Of the highest quality and standard. Significant enough to stand alongside the early masters whom Arcanist wish to invoke, yet with a compositional ear that lends a unique signature. Favorite track: A Vintage From Atlantis.

about

Debut album by French dungeon synth band Arcanist. Heavily influenced by the American Weird Fiction movement of the early 20th Century, the band explores the Poseidonis (Atlantis) Cycle of Californian fantasy poet, writer and artist Clark Ashton Smith (1893-1961).

Musically, Arcanist draws primarily from the Berlin School of Electronic Music (Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze etc...), but also weaves in other electronic artists like Vangelis, early Mortiis and Jim Kirkwood.

Medieval and Renaissance aesthetics also come into play, along with some darker and more experimental elements. Truly a sonic journey into the wondrous worlds of the Emperor of Dreams himself.
