A deep reworking of Llyn Y Cwn's "Megaliths" (2024). The original was a profound dark ambient exploration of the sacred resonance embedded within stone circles; "Megaliths In Dub" is the echo beneath the surface, the unheard rhythm that has always been there.

The megaliths stand - timeless, unyielding. Their histories stretch beyond recorded memory, their presence imbued with silent narratives of the land. "Megaliths" sought to channel this ancient energy into pure sound. Yet no history exists without its counterpart - no creation without its shadow.

On "Megaliths In Dub", suppressed tempos emerge, pulsing with the primal force of forgotten rites. Guitar invocations from the live rituals weave through the fabric of the album, distorting and reshaping the familiar, exquisite dark ambient Llyn Y Cwn has become renowned for. It is a sonic metamorphosis - a spectral reflection of the megalithic presence. The stones have been disturbed. 

"You can imagine ancient travellers arriving at the megalithic stones to take ayahuasca and trip out as the solid earth rotates, the stars dance and the rocks vibrate like ancient granite tuning forks. Megaliths in Dub is the sound they might have heard in their heads and Llyn Y Cwn is a man with a cosmic recorder who can summon the spirits and interpret them electronically. I didn’t think Megaliths could be improved but this monolithic, tectonic dub is a wonderful conundrum: perfection made more perfect." - Paul F. Cook,
