Prologue:

The name Amaltheia, in Greek "tender goddess", is clearly an epithet signifying the presence of an earlier nurturing goddess,whom the Hellenes whose myths we know, knew to be located in Crete where Minoans may have called her a version of "Dikte".
In the tradition represented by Hesiod's Theogony, Cronus swallowed all of his children immediately after birth. The mother goddess Rhea, Zeus' mother, deceived her brother consort Cronus by giving him a stone wrapped to look like a baby instead of Zeus.
AMALTHEIA (Amalthea) was the she-goat nurse of the god Zeus who nourished him with milk in a cave on Mount Dikte (Dicte) in Krete (Crete). When the god reached maturity he created his thunder-shield (the aigis) from her hide and the horn of plenty (cornucopia or keras amaltheias) from her crown. According to some Amaltheia was a nymphe rather than a goat. Amaltheia was placed amongst the stars as the constellation stellar group surrounding Capella on the arm (?len?) of the Auriga the Charioteer. The "goat on the arm" no doubt represented the stormy aigis-shield of Zeus which in classical art was sometimes depicted as a tasselled hide slung across his arm. The rising of Capella marked the onset of stormy weather for the Greeks. The word aigis means both "stormy weather" and "goat-skin" in ancient Greek which explains the close connection between the two in myth.

Driven by our love for the mutual ancient path,we heard her Call and so we responded! Here we present you 11 mindblowing tracks,consisted by groovy,dark,solid and powerfull basslines, weird, experimental, extraterrestial and intraterrestial atmos and landscapes and a lot of craziness! Join us into a journey to our nocturnal sacred past...
