Totem

Era

A haunting fusion of liturgical chanting and 2000s downtempo. Reverb-drenched choral textures meet digital pulses to create a ritualistic, cinematic atmosphere.

It sounds like a monk found a synthesizer in a haunted cathedral.

A hauntingly beautiful and solitary ritual that feels both ancient and futuristic.

The way the choral layers swell into a massive wall of sound during the climax of Touch
The unexpected transition into the rhythmic, almost tribal pulse of Arena
The eerie silence that punctuates the end of Dizzy Blank before the final track begins
