Everybody is trying to take over some tiny little blue ball floating through space, while Azathoth is just taking a nap somewhere beyond the edge of the Universe.
Azathoth sits in the middle of the universe, he sleeps, and we are his dreams; when he awakens - we all die. So, everything has a vested interest in keeping him asleep, on this, both good and evil agree.
For those interested, in the book series "Harbinger of Doom", Azathoth is the name of the one true God who was killed by one of his angels hence known as the Harbinger of Doom. I highly, HIGHLY recommend looking into the novels if you enjoy dark fantasy that's heavily inspired by Norse mythology and Lovecraftian tales. This music really takes me back to chapters within Azathoths realms. 🤘
@@redadmiralofvalyria867 Azathoth is a creation of Lovecraft, first appearing in Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath (one of his earliest tales but only published posthumously) as the blind idiot Daemon Sultan: a bad dude you do not want to be dragged before. The name combines Arabic and Egyptian sounding elements and is reminiscent of Dunsany's somewhat ironic faux mythologies (Gods of Pegana etc)-DQoUK has that playful tone). Azathoth appears again in a similar role in Dreams in the Witch House but its darker and he's involved in mathematical witchcraft. in both version the blind idiot daemon sultan is served by his soul and messenger Nyarlathotep, who is a sardonic even witty figure. The version don't map exactly, much is hinted and the tone varies, but its not great to meet Azathoth. There's not an exact crossover with Cthulhu, who sleeps on earth having come from elsewhere, Azathoth is definitely elsewhere. that said there's links: in DitW the dreamer visits another planet where the old Ones dwell, and in At the Mountains of Madness their relatives in Antarctica lost a war to Cthulhu and his star spawn.
@stephen Morrissey huh, interesting, out of (even more) curiosity he's called the "blind idiot" God cause he's dreamed up reality, and if he wakes, we all die(or dissappear or something) but is to stupid to care about that?(or something, again I'm not really expert in Lovecraft)
@@redadmiralofvalyria867 The idea of a god who if he wakes up and we all die is in Dunsany's Gods of Pegana (a dreamy mockery of ancient scripture by an Irish nobleman who greatly influenced Lovecraft) in the person of Mana-Yood-Sushai. In The Music of Erich Zann Lovecraft presents an Azathoth type chaotic black void that has to be lulled to sleep by frenzied playing, so you're onto something. In both Dream stories (DitWH and DQoUK) Azathoth is sort of a thrashing lump, not really asleep. Gee I haven' read this stuff for years, had to consult a volume about Dunsany, your questions are bringing back deep memories.

@@EldritchSleepMachine you understand us. You absolutely understand the aesthetics ,or the things to be seen, as expressed in the writings of Lovecraft,other authors who expanded his world ,and all the art and movies that have come after. The green with the sparkling…somehow you know. You must have tapped Lovecraftian Gnosis yourself. I know this because the music and the scene are too perfect for what I just said to be wrong.🙏🏻💚
Thank you very much, Valentius, humbled by your comment. Lovecraft is a passion of mine, I have narrated many of his stories, and have wanted to mix ambient music themed around his mythos for some time.
This...this is nice. I'm going to listen to it while writing up scripts for some of my creepy/horror demon-themed roleplay audios. I can already feel the inspiration mounting..
@@Juggler1525 Mmmm...more or less. They're generally set and themed in such a way as to cast the listener into a passive or semi-active role in the action that is going on, but mostly in a sort of storytelling mode. Some of the episodes do have a decent ensemble of voices (one episode has at least seven distinct character voices in it.)
@@Juggler1525 it's a newly popular genre on TH-cam that allows individual users to immerse themselves into whatever is going on in the video by pretending to be a part of it.
I always love these kinds of stories. Really gives me a way to spark my own storytelling powers. "The Universe expands. Pushing away the Blind Idiot God who seeks nothing else but to devour all that is." and the music makes it all better.

Beats to have your mind wiped away by an unknown entity you couldn't possibly pathom, on a research trip that promised to confirm the post demential claims of your father, to relax and to study to.
is there perhaps a way to get the image as a wallpaper? it's exactly what i was looking for, for at least a decade, in terms of a deep dark cosmos that does not follow natural law
@@universeantimatter627Copy the name of the youtube video and paste it into google images search in quotations, you'll get the full image albeit only in the resolution that it exists in on youtube
What if Azathoth is another name for the Biblical God. If that was the case, then Azathoth would also be an all-loving god and bring fear on the wicked and bring hope on the righteous.
It's a crapshoot with volume: I've had some people complain my ambients are too loud for sleep, others like you feel they are too quiet. Ultimately, I have to pick a volume, and these are calibrated to be the most useful for the widest viewership. I mix via Beyerdynamic cans primarily for earbuds--what most are using while relaxing, sleeping, etc.
I checked out your music on your channel. I found it to be extremely disconcerting. Perhaps brilliantly so as I feel strongly about never wanting to hear it again for the sake of my mental health. If that’s what you were going for, then I think you nailed it.
@@EldritchSleepMachine I have done some soundbooks/audiobooks of my literature, and filosofical things,,, And I needed music and ambient to it,,, So I found out how to make just that, music and ambient music,,, "Mystic Romantic, new music part1" is a video about this, and is new music styles,,, people had said I am not allowed to use synth sound for music, so when I begann to create the Organic Dark Ambient, it was based on real instrument, regardless how much digital:ization it needed, to become a ambient, sometimes dark, other times in the middle,,, how much that is used in movies that are of real sound, I do not know, but depends on the mood?
@@tolvfen Wall of text much? I don't want to get into a philosophical discussion about music, friend, I am a humble TH-camr trying to share some of my compositions and mixes with people. Please take your concerns elsewhere to more appropriate environs.
@@unfortunatecircumstances8870 LOL, did you even bother reading the exchange? And who said anyone should just "take" criticism? Just because someone may want to criticize something doesn't mean anyone should just accept it. In university, criticism's important, but on TH-cam it's the pasttime of the jealous, lazy and unimaginative. Just watch a video and leave the content creators alone.

Is this the same azathoth that's like Cuthulu's great great(possibly more) great grandpa or something? Or is this a different mythos?

more sleep inducing than scary
So relaxing... I almost fell asleep while trying to imagine something creepy and sinister...
Its like counting sheep
I use this ambience sound for sleeping.
Very nice job :D
ayo azathoth
This sound is soothing and helps me fall asleep almost instantly. Thank you so much!
You are most welcome, Wow.
@@EldritchSleepMachine WoW!
Beautiful sounds and my preferred scenery.💚
I want to write poetry that drives people insane
AI could probably help with that.

Magnificent, mysterious and macabre music!!!
Thanks.

So cool.
Great work :)
It's amazing how people think that the moment a video starts getting views lol
My eternal slumber can now start its course until the end of infinity.
Subscribe so we can reach the 1,000 milestone!
Is there 1h version? Is there someplace I can download it from and take with me on a walk in the night?
hi cutie
actually, I think this is good. an improvement on the hoover soundtrack or hairdrying sound I so used to like
How big is this Azathoth entity?
Yes.
Words with claws
its soo unholy ⸸
Wow, love this. Where can I find the background. It's art Astro...

All those "bubbles" were actually inhabited planets once...
What good are sanity checks if I keep failing them
I want a book of sanity cheques.

does Azathoth exist? if he does i think he has been speaking to me in my dreams.....now that sounds like nightmare fuel for catholics and the like
