Details:
xARKANEx is a solo project predominantly arranged by Pandelis (xIkonx), better known for his contributions to the disbanded pagan metal outfit Fiendish Nymph, and a former member of the Greek neo-folk outfit Daemonia Nymphe, whose debut CD was published by Prikosnovenie (France). Arkane differs from these previous projects in that Pandelis explores more ambient based expressions which culminate into a soundtrack of one man's mysterious and fantastic imaginitive world.

Arkane's debut album, with the Fossil Dungeon, is a tapestry of various influences ranging from the bombastic and ritualistic to the melancholic and majestic, all woven together by threads of ambient atmospheres that reminisce of old Hellenic traditions. Inspired by the forgotten mystery cults and mythologies of ancient Greece, Arkane sets out to ignite the spirit of the past through its meditative compositions.

"One cannot help but envision an etheric spirit dancing through a ghostly dance from time immemorial."

"The greatest Neo-Classical artist, I´ve heard for a very long time."

"A strange, esoteric marriage of dark ambient and folksy occultic (that brings Raison D'etre and Death in June to mind)."
