The samples that I heard sounded excellent (as - almost - usual with Ian's work). So bought it immediately.
Will listen to it tonight when I'm home.

No !
However I am remaining consistent with my DiN plan. So as with my other Stars End shows this one is out as a download release on DiNDDL.
I will continue with physical CDs as well as evidenced by the last one, Morphogenic (DiN41) with the new design digipak style.
I'm hoping the next physical release will be a combination of my Gatherings & Liverpool concerts and I also have a project with Markus Reuter underway.

Michael,
Thanks for grabbing the album.
Nice link you have there to Clark Ashton Smith. I have a nice 4 volume collection of his works. They're not that easy to get these days. And of course the word "eldritch" reminds me of H.P.Lovecraft.

Well - my pleasure, Ian!

Well, maybe You know that they were friends, although they met only one time in person, and otherwise exchanged letters.
(...that's what people did before the internet was invented ).
HPL was one of the most productive letter writers in (reported) history, more than 10.000 letter throughout his rather short life, I think, many of them 20 to 30 pages long...
http://www.hplovecraft.com/writings/letters/
I once read a little pocket book of C.A. Smiths short stories, that actually started with "The Seed from the Sepulrche" - eerie! It was a small but good collection.
However, I had it from the local library, and one day when I looked for it again, it wasn't available anymore. It also was out of print, and I never found a copy (that special German release was from the early 70ies). Only years later I found another compilation from a specialised weird fiction publisher, however some of my favorite stories were missing, and it included also some less interesting stuff.
Again some years later (two years ago, I think) I discovered that by now Smith's whole ouevre, or most of it, is available for free on the page about him, from which the link on my previous post comes.
So, by now I have read most of his stuff in his native language. I must say, he was a very profilic writer, and in the end, only part of his work is really cool. Then again, similar to Lovecraft, the man himself was a very interesting and slightly bizarre person...
I always thought that his story "City of the Singing Flame" would lend itself quite naturally for a musical adaption. Wonder if anyone has already done that during the past, well, 70 years or so...
Ah, well - enough of that now. Sorry for straying off-topic...

Thanks for posting up the picture of the front cover Koos.
I hope you all agree, a beautiful photograph in infra red by the one & only Chuck van Zyl.

Been playing Sepulchre and Frontiers a few times on Spotify.
Beautiful music on both.
Can someone put my rind at rest here regarding Spotify, maybe yourself Ian. Do the artists concerned receive payment from Spotify every time an album/track is played? And also, if like me you can download music for offline playback, is payment received by the artist concerned ?
I enjoy using Spotify however it is vitally important that musicians are receiving appropriate fundage for the use thereof.

The jury's out a bit on Spotify.
On the one hand it gives exposure to your music. And let's people "discover" it.
On the other hand you get next to nothing for track plays. Just fractions of a penny per play.
