The First Gathering
by V/A
'Once upon a time... start at the beginning and stay a while.' Welcome to 'The First Gathering'. A collaboration with 60 projects. Take your seats for 5 hours 55 minutes 55 seconds of ambient, dark ambient, dungeon synth, drone, minimal, acoustic, meditative and contemplative soundscapes on the initial release from Mountain Forest Cabin Dweller. The quality is high, all working together to weave and wind a bigger, more dynamic story - an epic journey. Thank you all who took part and to you for being here reading and listening. I hope you will discover plenty of new favourite projects to dive further into. 'Welcome' Calignosia Alces Noctis European Drought (ft.
