New album from Art Of Empathy

skeksisnetlabel — Sat, 13 Nov 2010 23:38:04 +0000

The Belgian one-man project Art Of Empathy has released another album for free. Fans of melancholic darkwave and neofolk can download “Posthuman Decadence” here:

Archive.org or Torrent @ Mininova.org

In my opinion “Posthuman Decadence” is (like the forerunner “Evening Sessions“) one of the best albums that has been released under Creative Commons. Thanks and congratulations to Jeff Janssen!

PS: One track from “Posthuman Decadence” will also appear on the new “In Autumnal Fog” sampler which will be released in the next few weeks.

I’m looking for bands and artists that are interested in contributing a track to the next part of the “10 Songs for free download” series. The theme is simple “summer”!
It’s in principle open to all kind of genres (acoustic, indie, post rock, ambient, piano,…); music with a soft melancholic touch is preferred.

As an example of what I’m looking for just watch the teaser video for the last year summer sampler:
