This is my first post here for a while, and it is quite an occasion.

After almost two years in the making, my third, by far most ambitious and still self-released album, named "The Eye of the Beholder" is out.



Sometimes you know. You know that everything you have done till now is nothing more than a repetition for the present; that whatever qualities your previous work had, they have only foreshadowed the entire potential; that everything before and after this is only a shadow or a reflection of the current brilliance; that from this point on nothing will be as grand and significant; that with the current work you fulfill your mission. However small everything until now may seem and however uncertain and difficult everything may be from now on, here and now, this is your magnum opus.

It is as sweeping as the cover is. Download it for free from the official website or check it out on last.fm. The album archive includes notes in English.

Cheers and thanks to those who will listen.

I'm a sucker for good music, so I'll check it out :D

Also, I'm a sucker for self-releasing musicians, so if you're any good - you'll gain a fan.  ;D

Great album, Vel. Your best one so far (at least for someone like me who's not that into prog :)). Some really nice and moody pieces in there. Keep up the good work!

Produced in the comfort of my bedroom and with the sheer pleasure of using pirated software. =)

Thanks, guys!

I'm generally a man that barely listens to something continuously, but this album is really well produced. Despite the fact that the vocals are in Bulgarian, the songs are very much well formed, and the album being a slightly sad trip itself, is very good. The vocals are great imho, and the piano is also very nice to hear. I can say I didn't like the synths that much, but it's definitely worth a listen.
