about

In 2018 'Sacred'- the debut album from Kuroi Ame, the collaborative project from Pure Life co-founders Panta Rhei and CMD094, was released on Pure Life Records and has since become regarded as one of the classics of the Dreampunk genre.

5 years later we release this collection of alternative versions, unreleased b sides and rarities made around the time of release. These tracks give further insight into the creative process and sonic experimentation we conducted in the first years of the project.

The project was originally conceived as a soundtrack project, therefore early versions of the tracks reflect this style. Some are recognisable, others less so, as they evolved into what would eventually be released on the album.

As well as being our debut release as Kuroi Ame, 'Sacred' was the reason we formed Pure Life Records in the first place, therefore the release will always have a special significance to us.

We hope you enjoy.

Panta/CMD

Brilliant album. DROIDROY basically bleeds Dreampunk, and this album is possibly his best so far. Hard to pick a favourite as there are all kinds of themes and styles here that are put together so very well. The cover art is beautiful too! Quantum Echo

Bought this release, when the live stream for the game was announced. Splendid and long and exhaustive live stream, but the music and the game have their own fascination: Review: https://adsol.oneyoudontknow.com/index.php/Live_2023-08-17_--_ARIA_--_Live_Playthrough_with_R3N_and_Panta_Rhei_and_Q_and_A The Questionable Question
