Eloy — Deaf Center

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1Shx98a7rU

Deaf Center is Norwegian, ambient, neoclassical, weird and quiet and lush and incredibly creepy. It's music for something-is-about-to-happen and it's music for think-on-your-sins; it's music for take-a-walk-at-night-when-you-shouldn't and it's music for keep-working, keep-your-head-down, keep-calm. It's especially music for meditation; it's drone and slow and horrid and peaceful; dramatic without being melodramatic; intentioned and controlled yet expressive; dark and sinister but without the cruelty or horror of most dark ambient. It's not about death or disease or war, it's not about sadness. It's about what kinds of sounds evoke a reaction, and it's incredibly successful.
