Älläï is the idea of looking yonder, up, over there, or on the bright side. It is the vast, yawning abstraction that engulfs you from any one of those places.

It's also the name of a plastic penguin that our imaginary flute player had as a child. That penguin meant everything. Please consider this whilst you listen.

Flavigula

Flavigula wavers in crepuscular zones, modulating among ripples and maelstroms, within spectra of snow and hailstones. Neither she makes delineations among the pleasing and unsightly, nor distinctions within the crystalline, shifting phase. Bounding in abstract landscapes, she thrives.

We are a psychedelic, ambient, and electronic project spanning La Rioja, Spain and Prague, Czechia. We focus on creating landscapes of abstract harmonic texture, peppering appropriate melodic and rhythmic flora amidst their dunes and ravines.

John Newman's Severed Head Still Speaks

Funolja is konum soxel
Nole lem sol isiz jo
Lofez sol tzija
Li an mikekon zana topen

You no longer have a body
Now just your words lead the sheep astray

Vlci

V lese leží těla roztrhaná vlky a vrány spí

In the woods lies a body torn apart by wolves
And ravens sleep
