Source: Unexplained Sounds Group. "V.A. - Music For Alien Temples" (digital release): "Music for Alien Temples" is an ambitious and visionary project that ventures into the realm of speculative soundscapes, imagining the religious practices, spiritual rituals, and cosmic ceremonies of advanced alien civilizations. It invites listeners to journey through soundscapes that evoke this cosmic religiosity. Each track is designed to transport the listener to an alien temple, a sacred space where the divine is perceived not through human eyes but through the expanded consciousness of extraterrestrial minds....
