Poarta Soarelui – Cantul lumilor Saturday, 31 December

The first material of this obscure project of ambient ritual music; sonic landscapes from Chiril’s own mind.

The creator of this project is also involved into Oroles (pagan metal) didn’t want to release anything to this world until Banatian Darkness convinced him to do so.

This first full-length has nine chapters developed carefully through almost a hour to carry the listener away and to induce a sort of transcendental stage and a proper support for meditation.

The release date (New Year’s Eve) was chosen to celebrate the eternal circle of regeneration and transgression through old and new time, the two principles opposed to life and death, night and day.

The latter news are that Chiril has developed work for the second full-length ...

We are back with a new identity! Wednesday, 23 November

After many struggles, ideas, work…we managed to give a new identity of Banatian Darkness Records, adding a new dimension: on-line label.

In the beginning in '95-'96 at fist it was a distro& tape label called Dark Dreams Production but over the years it has grown and became what is today Banatian Darkness.

The whole process was made out of passion for underground music, and still is today, the strong DIY feeling made us put everything we have produced in the past and will be in the future available free on-line.
