About parhelion

Music is Order.
Out of the void
Out of chaos
the creative spirit
moving over the face
of the waters.
Out of the random a rule
Out of darkness a light
Out of multitude and muchness
integrity,
the one entire whole and holy.
- Nick Jones

Parhelion is the result of many hours spent in the recording studio experimenting with various musical concepts. The inspiration for this endeavor was indirectly sparked by an idea I was developing with my band Tunturia (tunturia) and which has since morphed into this side-project. My goal is the musical exploration of solipsism syndrome, specifically dealing with how environment is conducive to state of mind. As a theory solipsism states that everything perceived is in an individual's imagination and that there is no reality outside of one's own mind. Environment plays a key role in affecting 'state of mind' and as my interest with the arctic grew I became more and more interested in investigating the parallel between that environment and individual perception with reference to such things as isolation, void and space. On a less philosophical level these compositions are simply works inspired by the grandeur and harsh beauty of arctic terrain. There is something both dreadful and magnificent about the vast north and these works are but an attempt at capturing that feeling of awe and wonder. My goal is to complete an entire album on this theme. As this is an ongoing side-project I don’t know when I will finish all of the intended work, but the inspiration is there so it will likely only be a matter of time.

"I am a religious person...and by 'religion' I mean re-ligio, the re-tying of a bond...restoring the legato of life. Life divides man into many pieces...There is no weightier occupation than the recomposition of spiritual integrity through the composition of music." - Sofia Gubaidulina

Vresnit	Apr 19 2009 8:48 AM New Vetvei label release: Vresnit : Vjuga.Ljet.Duj. Vetvei, V05, CD-R, Ltd181. 8-sided red paperboard booklet + А5 insert. 19 copies include 4 color A5 inserts. Sky and Earth meld into one where Vjuga Ljet Duj begun with a moment when nestling will begin to see,and then their Mothers give clear statements. Tightly wrapped it soars down, like a raven and enters the House through the roots. It is a journey-exploration and proclaiming each of 9 lines stated in Circle. With deep vibrations we enchant the symbols seen in dreams and ask the people who never spoken using words.Rough ritual ambient sung by voices of three worlds animals and shaped in acoustic-analog form. Iron percussion,loud words of caves and dimensions wrapped in smoke scent. We look after and expect, glorify the Law a song with inexhaustibility of form and content.
