@@oivamickelsson3864 that is such a coincidence dude. I am re reading the shadow of the torturer and the music and book are made for each other. Of course this is the 3rd or 4th time I have read the series since 1981. Farewell chateleine thecla. Such a mysterious book. But a gothic masterpiece. Yes?
_"The First Flame quickly fades. Darkness will shortly settle. But one day, tiny flames will dance across the darkness. Like embers, linked by lords past."_
I echo this sentiment.. At long last.. Perhaps you could write that book about the all knowing Google algorithm and how it eerily leads us to things we seem to desire at any given moment and how it slowly makes us go paranoid?
Day 15. I've only been in this place for two weeks, but it feels like decades. Had I not written in my journal, I would have not known how long I've been here. I entered this grim cathedral to hide from the feral beast that hunted me, but I fear this place too have monsters. With every step I take I feel dread entering my heart and my sanity leaving my mind. This place...This accursed place, I think it's alive. Whenever I entered a room that I think I've been in before, it seems to change when I look away, The hallways change and the room seems to morph a new one. I do not know where I go and I can not go back where I once was. At this moment, I had wished those beast had eaten me, at least it will be over quick. Thinking of those animals eating my carcass made me come to a realization. Since I've been here I have not crave water or food. Am I to walk in this Godless building for eternity, Am I walking towards my death or am I already dead ? I truly do not know.
I came to this video to relive the hype that my Pathfinder game has given me - one of my characters wandered through the ruins of the city named Carcosa, home to abberations and monsters very similar to himself. I came here to ease my restless nature, but you have simply... Sparked it anew. You're a fantastic writer.
People in the comments talk about how the music is "depressing" but it's really not. It's relief of depression. Maybe some of those people don't know they are depressed because they stuff it back deep in their mind constantly with distractions. Social media, tv, games, etc. When you listen to this music, it opens your mind and is an essential part of healing. This music is medicine.
@THE URANIUM CAFE I can agree with both of you I think? I think I know where both of u are saying, but instead I wanted to say something random about your YT profile, idk why I did this I might have tourettes lol! Btw a uranium cafe sounds absolutley terrifying!
From bone and blood Earth and Stone True and false Knee and throne *A kingdom alone* Life lingers Within the void unknown Little more than a tomb To call our own
Empty armors of knight shells of humanity gone from our sight perished by depravity in shadows they rest hidden from the light awaiting orders to fight from the one who wears The King's Crest.
Steps echo lightly through the mist Footfall, slow and weary The fog: a dull glow resists A lantern, a burden to carry Stooping down, a figure looks down into the dust and soot halting for a brief inquest A pack rattles and lay now stopping to kneel, yet not to rest The figure kneeling starts to pray
Your party enters a large Cavern, 50 feet in front of you, you see a golden key lying on the ground gleaming. When you look up you see movement on the ceiling. The slightest sound will bring them down. Damn it, we should have brought a thief...
It took me a long time to go from being depressed and creeped out by this type of dark atmosphere to being able to find a sense of beauty and peace in it. I think my past has just desensitized me to darkness and the reactive fear it provokes. I now look at darkness as a sense of tranquility and even art. I think it's why I tend to gravitate towards more melancholic games, books, movies, music, etc. I love that sense of sadness and darkness that's just *there.* Not sadness from loss or anything. Or darkness from emotional/mental battles. Just melancholic stillness that suggests that there was once life and brightness; however, that has all crumbled away and all that is left is darkness and peace.
I see dark atmospheres as the 'truth'. It isn't simply there to frighten you. It is a reminder of our morality, and the peace that comes with accepting it's inevitable arrival. Coming to terms with many things that aren't sugar-coated and sunny is what ironically gives me more appreciation for life.
... that is because it takes a separation from the many to really appreciate this kind of music, this kind of atmosphere, this kind of... solace. What you are not appreciating is the darkness of the theme, or the creepy desolation of its fugue -- but the absence of humanity, and everything that comes with it. There is no hustle and bustle; no strife, no laughing, no crying, no wails of anguish or despair. There is no rain, no cars, no technology, no explosions -- only walls of stone, and the remnants of who put it there. It is darkness, but it is abatement of chaos. There is no war, there is no struggle -- only a resemblance of death, and the echoes of true reverence and silence within. In early life, we are taught to fear death, and not at all to appreciate life. We struggle to make ourselves heard across the masses, but in such an environment as this, our voice will echo and reverberate with wanton thunder -- and it makes us stay silent. You truly feel your footprint here ... and in the silence, you may yet feel the peace of what will remain when it is gone. In the silence, stone, darkness and semblance of death ... we learn to appreciate those gone, and to ponder the meaning of each echoing step that we take. Pity not the Dead. After all, they finished the human race before you did. 'Twould be foolish to join them all too soon, however -- your steps, your voice, your presence; do they carry any reverence or meaning yet? ... Questions for another time. For now, be silent, be still. Enjoy this moment, for however long it may last.
As he stood in the building that we were working on, I realized I was now alone. What was alarming , is that it was a Friday! and the weather,.... was it going to rain like this all night and weekend? He was so cold and wet, everyone scattered , cause of the anticipation of the weekend. Would my roommates come looking for him? The short ex con clearly set him up for this , when he said he wouldn't latch the door.........; when he was trying to get the job done right , trying to dot his eyes and cross his tees , cause of the recent lecture from the forman, this was his typical behavior/situation for the first couple of weeks on every new job, being that he was a African American , in 1945 in Alabama . He really needed the job. He screamed and yelled for help, over and over, for hours. His last and only chance was to grab the nearest 2x4 , and ram the large double doors of the hotel, as if he was storming a castle in the dark ages, but from the inside out. He ramned it reapedeatly , for hours , even screaming at the same time, in order to get someones' attention. After we recovered the body from the wet floor; we played back the film to see the what really happened. As we played back the film we could see the hypothermia slowly kicking in, unfortunately for him it wasn't terribly cold , and it set in slowly and gradual probably 45-50 degrees while being rained on and standing in water. Every so often he would get out of the puddle he was sitting in and try the aforementioned again, with less strength of course, he did less and less , until his strength was next to nothing, and he finally decided to lay down and nap in the water, on the second day, shivering violently , until he fell asleep for his very last time; as a police officer it was my job , to watch the video to find out what happened, and I must say , because of the length of time he was locked in, combined with the wet, and mildly low temperatures, it made the whole situation , to fold out painstakingly slow. I even had to speed up the film , cause it was so slow; it was one of the hardest things I ever had to do in my career.
The unsettling melodies and spine-tingling harmonies in this piece make it a perfect fit for any horror-themed project. I could easily see this being used in a scene where the protagonist is slowly realizing they're not alone in the house, or where they're being chased by an unknown entity. The music amplifies the fear factor and makes it impossible to look away.
It's like the Monks long gone in ages past, still chanting within the ruins of their Monasteries. My imaginations dictates that the walls of abandoned or ruins of Monasteries still reverberates with the chanting of the Monks.
Beautiful, yet sad. Like a memory of a place and time that was, and that never will be again. Makes me love the nightmares, for the real pain is emotional and fear only distracts me from it.
This is a masterpiece. It helps me to write and is on the top of my playlist while working on a book. It captures the atmosphere perfectly. Absolutely stunning 🖤
There is something very Dragon Age about this. Very sad but hopeful, terrible but good, damaged but alive. It's the kind of world you can live in but never fully love. It isn't Skyrim or The Galaxy. More like DnD or Middle Earth during the Third Age. The type of place filled with hope and life, but also death, sadness, anger, and danger.
Im falling asleep to dark ambient gothic sounds when suddenly I hear "SLIDERS ARENT BURGERS, SLIDERS COME IN PAIRS, AND THEY COME IN PAIRS! IN LIFE, THERE ARE SLIDERS, AND THERE ARE BURGERS..." and I suddenly burst into uncontrollable tears
As I stood amidst the chaos The utter ruin of my castle So carefully built and tended My solemn cheeks freshly Awash with the liquid of loss All I’ve known has ended A shadow cast from antiquity Weaves the stitching of iniquity Suturing the wound with anger Insidiously I lie in wait My fervent hope as bait To trap this newborn stranger I must not concede defeat No not one inch nor feet Instead reset and regain That which is all in all Mine to be when I call Stand and remove every Last vestige of pain
What if I'm all depressed 24/7 because I force myself to be a person that I'm not made to be? Since some years ago a feeling of love to this kind of world, to the dark world, has grown inside me, but the face that I use to show to people everyday is a kind face, a happy face, a face of a supportive human, a flash of light... But, when I'm all alone I feel just... dark.

I started listening to it with speakers, two minuts in I was already looking for my headphones. Very well put. I feel the soul behind it.
It’s kinda nice here. I arrived here 6 days ago. It was a tad spooky when I first looked out, but I’ve since adapted. It’s quiet, gives me time to think and read. As I write this I am staring out the window. It looks to be autumn. I should probably describe what I’m looking at. Outside of my home, there seems to be some amount of old structures. I don’t know why I keep on getting sent to these kinds of places at these kinds of times, but I live with it. The structures kinda reminded me of several churches I’ve been in, but whoever built these things left a while ago. I saw someone here yesterday, dressed in what looked to be a brightly colored jacket. They waved; I waved back; they left. I think they set up camp nearby.
These playlists have been helping me get through some pretty rough and dark personal times and has oddly put me back on my spiritual path. The music is melancholic but beautiful and gets me in a headspace where I can concentrate and work things out. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a binural beat of some sort mixed into these. I feel scared. But I also feel relaxed. Sometimes it's okay to feel low. Sometimes it's okay to feel alone. If you're feeling it, there's probably a reason that you need to feel it.
It's been a year since you posted this comment, but I wanted to pop in and say I love this sentiment. Aural sounds are really important to me, and silence can actually be stressful. Having music that is non-vocal and unchaotic is vital for my brain to finally stop thinking. Tho in my case, I'm actually listening to this as mood music while I reread The Turn of the Screw 😁
Holy shit. i just had a terrible dream. I was listening the dark ambient music like this. And My family came home, so i took off my earphone. i was welcoming my family. But there was something strange. The music was still heard on my ear. I checked my ear. There were earphones. so i was ' oh! i'm an idiot!' and i took off it. After that, i was talking with my brother. From the certain point, a little noise appeared and is getting louder and louder. That noise sounds like music i heard a few minutes ago. As if it blocked my ear, i couldn't hear my brother. It continued to be heard even without the earphones, and i had to found another solution. But the play button and the power button of phone didnt work either. And I found download marks on the phone screen. It was downloading all of the musics of 'Dark Ambient music mix'. 'yeah that was the reason. Downloading too many files has made phone crashed, so buttons didnt work!'. I stop the download and deleted every files. I felt relief while i saw the files being removed. However, the music never left my ear. Still, I could hear nothing but only that fuking music! I felt as if the music has been with me from the beginning. And i felt that this cosmic, horrible music would be forever until i died. My mind was shattered. I felt my mental broken. At that time, i opened my eyes. i saw this mix is playing on my mac. there was earphone on my ear. I took off it, and i could feel silence. So im enjoying this peacefulness of quietness.
Möonrose Rosemöon Magical Drawings thank you for ur interpretation. That's interesting! Actually i was writing something like scenario for next competition . So I played this music mix to immerse the story. Although that dream was horrible, I luv that point of dreaming. Dream can be horrible or beautiful randomly. yah, i luv that randomness of it. Cuz it is the randomness that makes our life more interesting.
Didn't have exactly the same thing, but woke up with the sensation of having possessions on me like a pen, scarf, and a bucket. Not sure why, but neat nonetheless.
Damn, i slept with earphones in few weeks ago and had almost same dream about music playing in my head. But there also was heroin and sleepeng (while already sleeping). That was the day i was really afraid to go to bed
I don't know how I could be living my life without knowing this channel. Every time I check my feed a new amazing recommendation of this channel delights my day. Who ever owns it you're my hero. This is my new favorite channel of all time.
Since everyone is praising about the music, allow me say sth about the cover pic it matches perfectly with the vibe of this apocalyptic grande church scene, it’s so inspiring especially when you’re doing creative writing
I'm so happy this got posted. Not going to lie, Atrium Carceri is extraordinary. I was constantly listening to the Dark Choir and Cathedral mix until I found this. I was also wondering when something like that would be released again, you lot read my mind!
To the person reading this, Good Luck! Don't stress, everything will be fine. No matter what difficulty you are facing right now, you can overcome it! You are strong and brave.
"Old ruins" :that's how I would describe my high school... Edit:without knowing I have spend my last day at the high school, and now I feel so bad about that... Thx corona for fucking my senior year.... Don't forget guys, cherish what u have before they dissapear...
I thought it was “in the beginning there was the earth”? Which would also be inspiring since the earth is just, the earth. Both light and dark. Lol maybe I’m wrong tho
@@arsonhycan 'In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. And the Earth was without form, and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. KJV
This is beautiful, I can imagine sitting by a bonfire I made in a deserted cathedral. Of course, that thought was inspired by Dark Souls, but still, I find myself coming back to this many times because of just how much more developed the music is, yet it still retains the classic motif found in this channel, of ambiguity. To be honest, most ambience found in this channel is almost swallowed by ambiguity. I can get why some people can appreciate that type of ambience. It's calm, and there's not much going on. But, I appreciate ambience like this because it balances its overcoming ambiguity with ghoulish bewilderment. It sounds more like an environment where we can fathom its features. All this and more because the picture along with compilation of music for abandoned churches and cathedrals gives us some context as to what this environment around us is. Truly amazing job with this.
20:02 - "The air used to be crisp, now it itches. A red sky was passionate, not desolate. The shivers that travelled down my spine used to be at the thought of you. It was your touch that set the world alight. But your eyes dimmed in time with Gaia, her last cry a blight upon my world. I have known the scorching heat and numbing cold, endless hunger and echoing void too. Living was not a burden until the empty grave."
My life is no worse than anyone else's, but beyond the insanity that is 2020 this has been the loneliest year for me. This music perfectly reflects how I feel inside.
me: transcending to another time of being, placing myself into the footsteps of a grim and painful life of death- paypal ad interrupting me: 🤠 YOU LIVE IN CAPITALIST USA, BUY MY PRODUCT LOL
The low, almost bass tone was the lowest key on an organ, they are so deep that you can barely hear them, instead you can feel them. So great they are, that they consume the already sparse cries of the piano.
This tiny text is to be combined with the first song. While my grandmother was knitting woolen socks, the chair sizzled with her swings. I've never seen her look so thoughtful. Her blond locks, almost white, floated in the light wind that came through the window. The front blinds of the kitchen fanned. Distracted by my observations, the sound of the television became a noise, a language I did not recognize. Outside it was cloudy and the dust that came in through the window, passing through my grandmother's hair, stood out in pieces big enough to see from a distance, thanks to the sunset light. I never saw the sun completely. But if it weren't for my grandmother to describe it and even draw it, I would never know that the Sun, that light hidden in the gray clouds, could be that way. Or even that it existed, and that his name is Sun. "Stars" she said. "They're pretty. They are white and shiny dots, they seem even small and round openings in that darkness of Space. As if there were several exits. ” The television sound was still inaudible. But it was no longer because of my distraction. The signal was lost. Please, continue...
Seeing all the comments from all over the world tells me one thing: unlike politics, music brings all races and colours together as one. How I wish the world would be this united. ❤️ I hope music will do that. Nice music
This is the music I hear in my head whenever I'm dreaming. I only sleep to either ambient sounds or very low volume music. This makes me feel very nostalgic. Thank you. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
This mix seriously helped inspire me to build way better structures in Minecraft. My brother and I have this weird bit where one of us builds a "haunted" world and follow the other under an invisibility potion. Typically we put on the stomach-dropping cave sounds on repeat but this playlist has so much character and a level of eerieness that this will kick it. I'm thinking of a broken cathedral in the middle of a swamp biome but has an underground system of catacombs.
_They say a temple is never more precious than when it lays in ruin, its priests splayed like broken dolls over the rubble. They say the gods are never closer to their flock than when its blood runs thick over hallowed ground, idols lay shattered and zealous pleas run on the winds. Then the divine stir._
This music causes me to relax COMPLETELY. I know it's supposed to be dark but this music makes me hella happy and calm. Thank you so much for making this channel. I love all the artwork that goes with these videos aswell!
When listening to this, I don't envision a cathedral, abandoned and lost to the whims of decay, but instead I see a field of grass, dried by contempt and soured by neglect. Ironic, as that is an innocent reflection of the paradise we endure every day.
The music is haunting...with a hint of mystery and much darkness. It is amazing how you are able to intertwine these feelings and yet, still make them so soothing and inviting even. Excellent job. Thank you.
Just imagine listening to this and then picturing a cathedral smothered in fire! Because that's what I'm picturing as I listen to this. Particularly Empty Chapel! Because that's my favourite of the bunch.
One of the best compilations of yours I've listened to. I'm plotting out my short story for a comic and this has helped me stay focused and in the right mindset for it. Amazing tracks and even better together.
Empty Chapel is one of my favorite tracks, period. It sounds melancholic but at the same time optimistic. It's foreboding but it feels like there's a promise of salvation. A really weird combination I like and which is way too rare. I cannot, for the life of me, find enough themes with the same kind of vibe of benevolent malevolence.
Los techos se alzan hasta donde no llega la vista, y las columnas imposibles que se extienden hacia el firmamento, perdiéndose en la oscuridad, evocan épocas de grandeza y poder sin límites; poder que a pesar de los siglos sigue presente, vibrando entre las paredes. No puedo hacer más que encogerme: la pesada enormidad del templo cae sobre mí y me oprime el corazón, me paraliza el cuerpo no solo por miedo a lo que puedan ocultar sus sombras, sino por el respeto que el solemne silencio largamente imperturbado impone. Tan magnifica y terrible visión solo podía ser obra de seres igual de magníficos y terribles, cuya inmensidad es imposible de plasmar en palabras o siquiera en ideas.
Love this dude! Great albums and great mixes for CryoChamber! Not just pointless depressing drone. It is musical, a journey of darkness and all things alternative and otherworldly!
I am feeling this. :-) I was doing stuff in my room with this playing. I kept thinking oh I like this soundscape, it's one that has one more test. If I'm sleeping with this playing and I don't have nightmares, it's perfect and I will test it tonight. :-)
The melody of the track at 35:07 kind of reminds me of the neurax worm from plague inc. I know it's a bit of a stretch, just wanted to say I love that track!!
was falling asleep to this, nearly shat myself when an ad popped up on full volume screaming about some website

I don't know how you create this music but it really expresses the feeling of long abandoned and haunted castles and temples..
41:30 onwards reminds me of old tomb raider games. But a bit more cinematic

It's possible.

Happiness is fleeting and during periods of darkness, art like this is cathartic
I love the dark & am happy in its enclosure.
From bone and blood
Earth and Stone
True and false
Knee and throne
*A kingdom alone*
Life lingers
Within the void unknown
Little more than a tomb
To call our own
Empty armors of knight
shells of humanity
gone from our sight
perished by depravity
in shadows they rest
hidden from the light
awaiting orders to fight
from the one who wears
The King's Crest.
From womb to tomb and flesh to ash
Steps echo lightly through the mist
Footfall, slow and weary
The fog: a dull glow resists
A lantern, a burden to carry
Stooping down, a figure looks
down into the dust and soot
halting for a brief inquest
A pack rattles and lay
now stopping to kneel, yet not to rest
The figure kneeling starts to pray
Can I write this down I'll credit everyone's youtube (or something else's if u prefer)

It took me a long time to go from being depressed and creeped out by this type of dark atmosphere to being able to find a sense of beauty and peace in it. I think my past has just desensitized me to darkness and the reactive fear it provokes. I now look at darkness as a sense of tranquility and even art.

The short ex con clearly set him up for this , when he said he wouldn't latch the door.........; when he was trying to get the job done right , trying to dot his eyes and cross his tees , cause of the recent lecture from the forman, this was his typical behavior/situation for the first couple of weeks on every new job, being that he was a African American , in 1945 in Alabama . He really needed the job. He screamed and yelled for help, over and over, for hours. His last and only chance was to grab the nearest 2x4 , and ram the large double doors of the hotel, as if he was storming a castle in the dark ages, but from the inside out. He ramned it reapedeatly , for hours , even screaming at the same time, in order to get someones' attention.
After we recovered the body from the wet floor; we played back the film to see the what really happened. As we played back the film we could see the hypothermia slowly kicking in, unfortunately for him it wasn't terribly cold , and it set in slowly and gradual probably 45-50 degrees while being rained on and standing in water. Every so often he would get out of the puddle he was sitting in and try the aforementioned again, with less strength of course, he did less and less , until his strength was next to nothing, and he finally decided to lay down and nap in the water, on the second day, shivering violently , until he fell asleep for his very last time; as a police officer it was my job , to watch the video to find out what happened, and I must say , because of the length of time he was locked in, combined with the wet, and mildly low temperatures, it made the whole situation , to fold out painstakingly slow. I even had to speed up the film , cause it was so slow; it was one of the hardest things I ever had to do in my career.
Listening to this while reading Berserk manga is a priceless experience. Thanks Cryo.
I agree that it sets the mood when reading i read to this no matter what i'm reading.
Atrium Carceri always with the bangers
The unsettling melodies and spine-tingling harmonies in this piece make it a perfect fit for any horror-themed project. I could easily see this being used in a scene where the protagonist is slowly realizing they're not alone in the house, or where they're being chased by an unknown entity. The music amplifies the fear factor and makes it impossible to look away.
It's like the Monks long gone in ages past, still chanting within the ruins of their Monasteries. My imaginations dictates that the walls of abandoned or ruins of Monasteries still reverberates with the chanting of the Monks.
I wish I could hear this while walking through the ruins of a beautiful gothic church or castle. It evokes so much emotion and feelings.
That toilet paper commercial in the middle of this set is straight fire!
Beautiful, yet sad. Like a memory of a place and time that was, and that never will be again. Makes me love the nightmares, for the real pain is emotional and fear only distracts me from it.
The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome.

This is a masterpiece. It helps me to write and is on the top of my playlist while working on a book. It captures the atmosphere perfectly. Absolutely stunning 🖤
Ditto. What's your book about?
yeah what is it about/ is it out?
this is both terrifying and comforting. it's like getting the warmest and softest back hug even though you could swear you were alone
reading Spinoza while listening this : very helpful.
Thank you.
There is something very Dragon Age about this. Very sad but hopeful, terrible but good, damaged but alive.
It's the kind of world you can live in but never fully love. It isn't Skyrim or The Galaxy. More like DnD or Middle Earth during the Third Age. The type of place filled with hope and life, but also death, sadness, anger, and danger.
I would've gone with Dark Souls, but that works too.
When I saw the thumbnail I immediately thought of Dragon Age too.
U have too much hope maybe
Im gonna play Dragon Age Origins again :D
It is a great game.
I'm definitely using this as background music for my Eldritch themed D&D campaign.
"the great order of things" is really something else... it is so spine chilling...
this type of music heals me, it soothes my spirit in ways I cannot put into words
Im falling asleep to dark ambient gothic sounds when suddenly I hear "SLIDERS ARENT BURGERS, SLIDERS COME IN PAIRS, AND THEY COME IN PAIRS! IN LIFE, THERE ARE SLIDERS, AND THERE ARE BURGERS..." and I suddenly burst into uncontrollable tears
well did you try them.
I find sliders coming in pairs very emotionally moving as well.
As I stood amidst the chaos
The utter ruin of my castle
So carefully built and tended
My solemn cheeks freshly
Awash with the liquid of loss
All I’ve known has ended
A shadow cast from antiquity
Weaves the stitching of iniquity
Suturing the wound with anger
Insidiously I lie in wait
My fervent hope as bait
To trap this newborn stranger
I must not concede defeat
No not one inch nor feet
Instead reset and regain
That which is all in all
Mine to be when I call
Stand and remove every
Last vestige of pain
@Þórfinnr Karlsefni Þórðarson Away with you, imbecile.

Bah! I thought it was excellent poetry. I'm afraid I do not know the author. Was it you?
J.T. Harrison yes it was! I was drinking that night and reflecting on my life a bit
Wow.... Both unique, creepy and it brings you an image in mind with a dark atmosphere.....10/10
One of my favourite playlists of all time. Now it feels nostalgic. Thank you, Cryo Chamber.
What if I'm all depressed 24/7 because I force myself to be a person that I'm not made to be?
Since some years ago a feeling of love to this kind of world, to the dark world, has grown inside me, but the face that I use to show to people everyday is a kind face, a happy face, a face of a supportive human, a flash of light... But, when I'm all alone I feel just... dark.
I started listening to it with speakers, two minuts in I was already looking for my headphones. Very well put. I feel the soul behind it.
I feel like I’m walking through an old draconian castle. I’m not frightened but curious and the stunning music is drawing me deeper!!
The first three songs on here will always be in my top spots for ambient ❤❤❤
It’s kinda nice here. I arrived here 6 days ago. It was a tad spooky when I first looked out, but I’ve since adapted. It’s quiet, gives me time to think and read. As I write this I am staring out the window. It looks to be autumn.
I should probably describe what I’m looking at. Outside of my home, there seems to be some amount of old structures. I don’t know why I keep on getting sent to these kinds of places at these kinds of times, but I live with it. The structures kinda reminded me of several churches I’ve been in, but whoever built these things left a while ago. I saw someone here yesterday, dressed in what looked to be a brightly colored jacket. They waved; I waved back; they left. I think they set up camp nearby.
These playlists have been helping me get through some pretty rough and dark personal times and has oddly put me back on my spiritual path. The music is melancholic but beautiful and gets me in a headspace where I can concentrate and work things out. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a binural beat of some sort mixed into these. I feel scared. But I also feel relaxed. Sometimes it's okay to feel low. Sometimes it's okay to feel alone. If you're feeling it, there's probably a reason that you need to feel it.
How are you doing now after a year? Hope all is well with you.
It's been a year since you posted this comment, but I wanted to pop in and say I love this sentiment. Aural sounds are really important to me, and silence can actually be stressful. Having music that is non-vocal and unchaotic is vital for my brain to finally stop thinking. Tho in my case, I'm actually listening to this as mood music while I reread The Turn of the Screw 😁
Holy shit. i just had a terrible dream. I was listening the dark ambient music like this. And My family came home, so i took off my earphone. i was welcoming my family. But there was something strange. The music was still heard on my ear. I checked my ear. There were earphones. so i was ' oh! i'm an idiot!' and i took off it. After that, i was talking with my brother. From the certain point, a little noise appeared and is getting louder and louder. That noise sounds like music i heard a few minutes ago. As if it blocked my ear, i couldn't hear my brother. It continued to be heard even without the earphones, and i had to found another solution. But the play button and the power button of phone didnt work either. And I found download marks on the phone screen. It was downloading all of the musics of 'Dark Ambient music mix'. 'yeah that was the reason. Downloading too many files has made phone crashed, so buttons didnt work!'. I stop the download and deleted every files. I felt relief while i saw the files being removed. However, the music never left my ear. Still, I could hear nothing but only that fuking music! I felt as if the music has been with me from the beginning. And i felt that this cosmic, horrible music would be forever until i died. My mind was shattered. I felt my mental broken. At that time, i opened my eyes. i saw this mix is playing on my mac. there was earphone on my ear. I took off it, and i could feel silence. So im enjoying this peacefulness of quietness.

thank you for ur interpretation. That's interesting! Actually i was writing something like scenario for next competition . So I played this music mix to immerse the story. Although that dream was horrible, I luv that point of dreaming. Dream can be horrible or beautiful randomly. yah, i luv that randomness of it. Cuz it is the randomness that makes our life more interesting.
Didn't have exactly the same thing, but woke up with the sensation of having possessions on me like a pen, scarf, and a bucket. Not sure why, but neat nonetheless.
thats a cool dream.
Damn, i slept with earphones in few weeks ago and had almost same dream about music playing in my head. But there also was heroin and sleepeng (while already sleeping). That was the day i was really afraid to go to bed
Реликтовый Герой lmao! me too, i was afraid to go to bed rly
I don't know how I could be living my life without knowing this channel. Every time I check my feed a new amazing recommendation of this channel delights my day. Who ever owns it you're my hero. This is my new favorite channel of all time.
Since everyone is praising about the music, allow me say sth about the cover pic it matches perfectly with the vibe of this apocalyptic grande church scene, it’s so inspiring especially when you’re doing creative writing
So eerie, dark, and somber. Yet amazingly beautiful. Cryochamber never fails to amaze me
I'm so happy this got posted. Not going to lie, Atrium Carceri is extraordinary. I was constantly listening to the Dark Choir and Cathedral mix until I found this. I was also wondering when something like that would be released again, you lot read my mind!
To the person reading this, Good Luck! Don't stress, everything will be fine. No matter what difficulty you are facing right now, you can overcome it! You are strong and brave.
Dark Souls Vibes. Thank You.
45:20 love that part!!😮
I listen to this while painting
This makes reading the exorcist way more scary
"Old ruins" :that's how I would describe my high school...
Edit:without knowing I have spend my last day at the high school, and now I feel so bad about that... Thx corona for fucking my senior year.... Don't forget guys, cherish what u have before they dissapear...

@A.J. 232737 for what?
I wish i could play this when i'm in Astral... Imagine having the full experience of going to temples with this music in the back
I could spend a lifetime exploring such things
I'm really loving this one . Especially when that violin kicks in about halfway through then fades into more piano, just perfect.
The bible speaks beautifully from the start...
_"In the beginning there was darkness."_
Dark Souls' universe started this way, too.
@@Hristaquis that says a lot
I thought it was “in the beginning there was the earth”? Which would also be inspiring since the earth is just, the earth. Both light and dark. Lol maybe I’m wrong tho
Actually, "in the beginning there was the Word."
@@arsonhycan 'In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. And the Earth was without form, and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. KJV
This is beautiful, I can imagine sitting by a bonfire I made in a deserted cathedral. Of course, that thought was inspired by Dark Souls, but still, I find myself coming back to this many times because of just how much more developed the music is, yet it still retains the classic motif found in this channel, of ambiguity. To be honest, most ambience found in this channel is almost swallowed by ambiguity. I can get why some people can appreciate that type of ambience. It's calm, and there's not much going on. But, I appreciate ambience like this because it balances its overcoming ambiguity with ghoulish bewilderment. It sounds more like an environment where we can fathom its features. All this and more because the picture along with compilation of music for abandoned churches and cathedrals gives us some context as to what this environment around us is. Truly amazing job with this.
20:02 - "The air used to be crisp, now it itches.
A red sky was passionate, not desolate. The shivers that travelled down my spine used to be at the thought of you. It was your touch that set the world alight. But your eyes dimmed in time with Gaia, her last cry a blight upon my world. I have known the scorching heat and numbing cold, endless hunger and echoing void too.
Living was not a burden until the empty grave."
Listening to this right now. I have a test 6 hours later. Studies can wait for now
My life is no worse than anyone else's, but beyond the insanity that is 2020 this has been the loneliest year for me. This music perfectly reflects how I feel inside.
Listened to this as the skies grew dark with nightfall and a light rain fell with heat lightning in the distance.....was awesome.😔
me: transcending to another time of being, placing myself into the footsteps of a grim and painful life of death-

The first song is one of the most beautifully lonely pieces I've ever heard.
The low, almost bass tone was the lowest key on an organ, they are so deep that you can barely hear them, instead you can feel them. So great they are, that they consume the already sparse cries of the piano.
This is super comforting? Like being under a cozy weighted blanket.
This is probably my favorite one so far tbh
This tiny text is to be combined with the first song.
While my grandmother was knitting woolen socks, the chair sizzled with her swings. I've never seen her look so thoughtful. Her blond locks, almost white, floated in the light wind that came through the window. The front blinds of the kitchen fanned.
Distracted by my observations, the sound of the television became a noise, a language I did not recognize.
Outside it was cloudy and the dust that came in through the window, passing through my grandmother's hair, stood out in pieces big enough to see from a distance, thanks to the sunset light.
I never saw the sun completely. But if it weren't for my grandmother to describe it and even draw it, I would never know that the Sun, that light hidden in the gray clouds, could be that way. Or even that it existed, and that his name is Sun.
"Stars" she said. "They're pretty. They are white and shiny dots, they seem even small and round openings in that darkness of Space. As if there were several exits. ”
The television sound was still inaudible. But it was no longer because of my distraction. The signal was lost.
Please, continue...
Seeing all the comments from all over the world tells me one thing: unlike politics, music brings all races and colours together as one. How I wish the world would be this united. ❤️ I hope music will do that. Nice music
*For the 2% who read this, I wish you for a total success in your next project!!!*
Sounds like depression, abandonment, hopelessness and helplessness.
♥️I love it♥️
LIFE
Sounds like Hell to me, particularly Empty Chapel!
Nothing like contemplating my own darkness while listening to another amazing assortment of dark tracks. Thank you for this!
This is the music I hear in my head whenever I'm dreaming. I only sleep to either ambient sounds or very low volume music. This makes me feel very nostalgic. Thank you. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
This mix seriously helped inspire me to build way better structures in Minecraft. My brother and I have this weird bit where one of us builds a "haunted" world and follow the other under an invisibility potion. Typically we put on the stomach-dropping cave sounds on repeat but this playlist has so much character and a level of eerieness that this will kick it.
I'm thinking of a broken cathedral in the middle of a swamp biome but has an underground system of catacombs.
_They say a temple is never more precious than when it lays in ruin, its priests splayed like broken dolls over the rubble. They say the gods are never closer to their flock than when its blood runs thick over hallowed ground, idols lay shattered and zealous pleas run on the winds. Then the divine stir._
This music causes me to relax COMPLETELY. I know it's supposed to be dark but this music makes me hella happy and calm. Thank you so much for making this channel. I love all the artwork that goes with these videos aswell!
When listening to this, I don't envision a cathedral, abandoned and lost to the whims of decay, but instead I see a field of grass, dried by contempt and soured by neglect. Ironic, as that is an innocent reflection of the paradise we endure every day.
The music is haunting...with a hint of mystery and much darkness. It is amazing how you are able to intertwine these feelings and yet, still make them so soothing and inviting even. Excellent job. Thank you.
This totally stimulated 30 minutes of deep DnD lore for my campaign. Thank youz
Masterpiece of Dark Ambient
I listen to this every morning. Thank you
There isn’t enough superlatives to describe how brilliant this creation is, a truly masterful piece of art from beginning to end.
Walking in a dark forest by night, while listen to this masterpiece is so beautiful!
As much as I would love to do this, I am very wary of being alone somewhere without the ability to hear what is going on around me.
@@raksh9 It took me a lot of time that I can do this but I got fearless! My mind got stable, and I'm really thankful that I took this step!
@@lealee7818 As long as you stay safe and aware.
@@raksh9 as long as it is real as well...
Just imagine listening to this and then picturing a cathedral smothered in fire! Because that's what I'm picturing as I listen to this. Particularly Empty Chapel! Because that's my favourite of the bunch.
This is really awesome. I am talking seriously. That picture is a masterpiece. HUGE LIKE from Italy with Love,Cryos! :-*
One of the best compilations of yours I've listened to. I'm plotting out my short story for a comic and this has helped me stay focused and in the right mindset for it. Amazing tracks and even better together.
Yep, Oehme and Caspar David Friedrich were two of the top Dark Muse painters of the 19th century.
Another great upload as usual,im so glad to have found this genre
Empty Chapel is one of my favorite tracks, period. It sounds melancholic but at the same time optimistic. It's foreboding but it feels like there's a promise of salvation. A really weird combination I like and which is way too rare. I cannot, for the life of me, find enough themes with the same kind of vibe of benevolent malevolence.
Check out Atrium Carceri - Reunion
Los techos se alzan hasta donde no llega la vista, y las columnas imposibles que se extienden hacia el firmamento, perdiéndose en la oscuridad, evocan épocas de grandeza y poder sin límites; poder que a pesar de los siglos sigue presente, vibrando entre las paredes. No puedo hacer más que encogerme: la pesada enormidad del templo cae sobre mí y me oprime el corazón, me paraliza el cuerpo no solo por miedo a lo que puedan ocultar sus sombras, sino por el respeto que el solemne silencio largamente imperturbado impone. Tan magnifica y terrible visión solo podía ser obra de seres igual de magníficos y terribles, cuya inmensidad es imposible de plasmar en palabras o siquiera en ideas.
Great mix of instruments and sounds
Love this dude! Great albums and great mixes for CryoChamber! Not just pointless depressing drone. It is musical, a journey of darkness and all things alternative and otherworldly!
Your name 😆
This what you hear when walking around in one of the Imperium's cites in the middle of the night.
There is a really good mix of sadness and yet calmness in the tracks! Awesome!
I think this mix is one of my favorites...
_"We are guardians, but also a bunch of miserable wretches that are constantly fighting against threats and madness."_
I am feeling this. :-) I was doing stuff in my room with this playing. I kept thinking oh I like this soundscape, it's one that has one more test. If I'm sleeping with this playing and I don't have nightmares, it's perfect and I will test it tonight. :-)

Another great upload from Cyro Chamber. Love the dark ambient..
A heart less darkened is incredible. The vampire hidden in a haunted castle vibe this whole video gives off is absolutely stunning
"Welcome, weary traveler. Ah, I see you the bear the minor sigil of Lantimor - you're here for the ritual, I take it? Right this way..."
Relaxing...
Sublime and deep.
The melody of the track at 35:07 kind of reminds me of the neurax worm from plague inc. I know it's a bit of a stretch, just wanted to say I love that track!!
