Day Before Us – Prélude à l’âme d’élégie
Day Before Us – Prélude à l’âme d’élégieLabel:. OPN – OPNCD0031Format: CD, Album, Limited EditionCountry: FranceReleased: 16 Dec 2015Style: Dark Ambient, Modern Classical, Experimental “Le bleu est la couleur des lieux extrêmes et des degrés derniers, qui sont fermés à la vie – brouillards s’évanouissant dans l’absence, pointe des glaciers, centre des flammes qui se tardent.
