ALICE (Něco z Alenky, 1988).

When Alice follows the White Rabbit into the surreal, dream-logic reality of Wonderland, so begins our expedition into the psychological landscape of childhood, a journey of the imagination both whimsical and dark.
The Empyreans are an improvisational ambient collective featuring rotating musicians from various locations. The concept was created by multi instrumentalist/composer Craig Douglas (Neonach, Circus Of Dead Squirrels, Obliquity).
