Hey ya all. I just realized I've been listening to dark ambient for about 13 years now. It's been a wonderful trip and I'm super grateful for all the amazing artists and people/listeners along the way. It all began with Atrium Carceri, Robert Rich & Lustmord - Stalker, Dahlias Tear, Desiderii Marginis and Beyond Sensory experience. Not surprisingly, I ended up having this realization under a video by the Cryo Chamber label which AFAIK is Simon a.k.a. Atrium Carceri. So thanks to you Simon as well, for bringing all this amazing music together and the countless hours of concentration and deep work, and blissful lone walks I've had along with it. Wanted to share it with whoever reads this, as I am sure there are many like me, who don't have people around them listening to such music :D By the way, the desert theme is the reason for this flashback. Back when I was just discovering the existence of this genre, there was a chillout compilation that I listened to a lot and still love, called Arabic Beats. Produced by Bar De Lune, 2004. Also, thanks to Draku Lady for uploading a ton of awesome dark ambient to her channel of the same name. If you ever read this, all the best and thanks for the time spent putting up those videos!! And all the best to whoever read this. You're awesome, stay dark :)
I am currently making plans to run an arabian-styled dnd campaign in the next weeks and this popping up in my feed really saved me a lot of trouble. Thank you, from a faithful fan. ;)
@@hyperflexharrington5 sorry buddy, this is only with trusted friends and in one apartment, we then stream the thing and it is already packed full with like 8 people. :/
I like this. No raunchy electronic fart noises. Not too whhhindy. Just enough echo to give you that sense of vastness. Like the ongoing dreams of a long dead Pharaoh reminiscing of his fleeting moments of glory. And the long, long rest of eternity...
I started, on this channel, with dark underwater compilation, few months ago. Tonight I'm in the dark desert. Man...I've been on so many places, thanks to you Cryo Chamber. Thank you for that journey🙏
That is literally the best dark desert mix on youtube. It gives more emphasis on the ambient part and the instruments are there to give an extra feeling, not overtake the ambience. Excellent!
Fun fact : I'm currently writing a Call of Cthulhu : Dark Ages campaign set in the Omeyyad Caliphate. The main baddy is Shub-Niggurath and I tried to find ambient sounds and songs to create an atmosphere. First playlist I clicked on was this one, and the first music playing is titled Shub-Niggurath. the Great Old Ones are watching over me it seems.
You know when you read books with stark alien landscapes? There's just a few lines of words that you can use to put a picture into your mind's eye. But it's more than that. It's a feeling too. This music is that feeling.
Was listening to Pink Floyd today and said to the wife that I think my favourite song by them is probably Set the Controls For The Heart of the Sun. Love that weird, psychedelic mix Middle Eastern sounds with dark ambiance. Who is the man who arrives at the wall? Making the shape of his questions at asking. Thinking the sun will fall in the evening. Will he remember the lesson of giving?
I have a desert themed D&D game that I’ve been spending time putting together. I’m sure your music will be “instrumental” in creating player immersion.
This is specifically the type of music I have wanted for so long. Dark ancient desert has such a very unique feel to it. I appreciate this allot. Wish I would have found your channel sooner.
As a Iraqi most of these instruments are originally arab instruments this type of music came from us Arabs this is our home music it always will be we sit in big groups of people with drums and flutes and different things playing this this is our home music forever 🇮🇶
41:39 Creation VI - ancestral voice..... That is like a ritual type of song. Especially when the drums start, Very powerful, I have went deep Into meditation many times because of this. Be careful though. You could wake something up inside of you, that you might not be able to handle.
Nice. I've been waiting for something like this and I smiled when I heard the chant to Shub Niggurath. I mean, I live in Vegas and, considering what she represents, it's the same principle.
I watched Moses with some friends at a friend's place, while I walked my friend home we talked about ambiance. The very next day this comes in my recommended.

So vivid and enthralling. Thank you for this wonderful piece. I am reminded of the true story of a journey across the Sahara in the 1920's. In it the author talks of the camels amongst their caravan and how one oasis they camped out at seemed to be haunted. The camels appeared to be spooked by something. They would suddenly bolt off in one direction just to halt and scurry into another direction in an attempt to escape whatever unseen forces were tormenting them.
@@-shakir5152 I am trying to remember the name of it. But i will let you know. i wanted to order it from Barnes n Noble and it was going to cost almost $100 because its a rare book. i heard about it on a tv show documentary. there is another one called Across the Sahara that is supposed to be really good too. non-fiction diary type book.
The eeriness of this mix makes me vicariously live through an Afghan refugee trying to escape the country. Huddled among a hundred others, in the dark, sweltering heat at the back of a cargo truck, on its way to the borders of Pakistan. The journeys of many every day that take place as we are all taking our luxuries for granted, chilling out at home and listening on TH-cam. Great ambient mix!
bleak, inspiring and spot on! Takes the mind on a cinematic journey in forbidden temples and derelict ruins of ancient civilisations, partly submerged and asleep in centuries of sand coiling around the solemn edifices... perhaps an expedition was funded to probe the Empty Quarter in search for mythical Iram (or Irem of the Thousand Pillars). Maybe the last message to the archaeological dig at Ebla hinted at the menacing outcome of the long journey across the terrible inhospitable terrain. Those who ventured in vain, seeking the sources to the riches of Assurbanirpal and Nineveh, have last been spotted crossing into Saudi Arabia a week ago... even the helicopter saw no trail, nothing... and the link in Yemen reports only static....
"As you step from the door of the hold onto the sand, you hear a crunch. When you lift up your boot you see that the 'sand' is really a mixture of sand and tiny shards of glass. The crystal spire can be seen about a kilometer in front of you, and what looks like a massive sandstorm is coming from the south..."
I have been in the service of pharaoh for many many years It has been my task to write down all that he desires My father did this before me, and his father before him We have faithfully recorded and seen much He is our Lord and Master He is Horace reborn and Osiris in the afterlife All of Egypt lives and dies by his divine wish And this is as it should be We are his children, pharaoh loves us all We would conquer the world, so that all may know his wise rule Even if pharaoh did not ask this, we would do this His enemies will be struck down, night and darkness shall take them The sands will be stained red All this will come to pass, for pharaoh has decreed it So is it written, so shall it be.
Clearly what was written, was wrong, as what was written has not come to pass😀stitck with reality not imaginings and vulgar servitude to some individual, no human needs princes, gods, or overlords. Trust in yourself, that is the lesson and journey. If you want to be a sycophantic slave fine, but don’t expect other’s to follow.
As Jericho squad was entering in the deeper levels of Al Khali, Captain Xavier Jones could feel more than ever before the unholy presence of The Firstborn in every corners of the ancient Sumerian city... He wondered that even if the squad succeeded, will Jericho's fate would be to be locked forever in the Pyxis, like all those who had previously tried to protect mankind from The Firstborn?
