The formative years of Hunter Thompson's music as Akasha System were seeded and shaped by the shrouded meadows and wet woodlands of the Pacific Northwest: Sea Glass, Shadow Self, E cho Earth, Geomind. But pandemic flux flipped the script, prompting a migration to the monsoon tropics of Tampa. Heliocene ushers in a fresh chapter in the Akashic record, recasting the project's precision synergy of cellular melody, holographic pads, spiral tribalism, and eco-futurist swing for a new solar age. The album's eight songs were recorded across 2023 and 2024, inspired by explorations of the many sanctuaries hidden in Florida's ragged paradise: singing towers, ancient grottoes, emerald lagoons. From vortex house ("Purity Vector," "Sun Particle") to mirage electronica ("Haunted Planet," "Soma Totem") to hand drum divination ("Terraform Dream"), the sides flow, glow, and gleam, dialed in but dreaming out, tracing radiant waves of the eternal now. "This album is a meditation to experience where and when you are, fully and wholly, regardless of where the path leads."* No export to UK/EU Tracklist: Haunted Planet Purity Vector Photonic Loop Terraform Dream Sun Particle Neon Paradise Soma Totem Heliocene UPC: 843563187074Label: 100% SilkRelease Date: 9.12.25Format: Vinyl Show more
