I am happy to present my 100th album release with an album of Fourth World styled compositions dedicated to the the Hindu deity, Nataraja. An ancient symbol that represents the rhythm and harmony of life. Drawing on 3 decades of work with original electronic music.

June 10th is 25 years to the day that Laural Palmer said she would return to Twin Peaks. To celebrate, we have two special releases coming to Aural Films. First is a new album by MHZ (Mike Honeycutt and Jack Hertz) titled, "The Angles Have All Gone Away." This album continues where the first album left off with more atmospheric pieces from the land of Bob. The next release will be a re-issue of the "25 Peaks" album on CD.

This album is a sonic return to Ridley Scott's gritty film noir world that was painted over Philip K Dick's canvas for "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep." Each composition is an extended meditation on the people, places, and encounters found in this unique cinematic vision that fuses the past with our own future.

Following the well received release, "Divina Commedia I: Nine Circles" by Jack Hertz and Scott Lawlor. Aural Films presents part two of the descent into Dante's Inferno titled, "Divina Commedia II: Seven Terraces." This release contrasts the darkness of "Nine Circles" with a lighter, more up-lifting album focused on purgatory and the Earthly paradise. Download the album now at https://auralfilms.bandcamp.c…
