    okay, "Menggayakan" was thoroughly enjoyable, A+ 10/10 would recommend

    'Def diggin' the black vinyl series sound as a whole. I hope future releases stick with a similar style of drone rather than the noisy-drone I've heard on some releases.

    Oh yes the ''Unhindered'' album is gorgeous. Off the latest stuff, my favorites albums are ''Catalina'', ''Epicentral Examples of the More or Less'' (classic!), and especially ''Lightness and Irresponsibility'', which I find breathtakingly beautiful.

    Check out the album "Honey Moon" - "Then and Again" was used in the first track off Unhindered.

    No love for Close Proximity and the Unhindered Care-All? That's my jam. Any word on new Celer material?

    @cliquott: I know! I was just browsing their bandcamp and happened to click on it. It really surprised me how good it was.

    ''Continents'' really is something else. Never payed much attention to it until now and I'm impressed -- how beautiful!

    Listen to ''Panoramic Dreams Bathed In Seldomness', ''Para'', and ''Catalina''. You'll love them!

    actually, I'll ask... does anyone know any other Celer releases like that of "Continents", "Engaged Touches" or "Discourses of the Withered"? Where it's (I don't know how to describe it but) heavier ambient or waves of drone, compared to "Without Retrospect, The Morning" which is lighter in sound. I've been browsing the bandcamp page but if someone can point me in the right direction, that'd be swell!

    starting to think Continents might be their best album (even though I haven't heard half their discography yet)
