Jack music Life A bit of Danse Society in the Dryspell 's Skull Moon Favorite track: Dryspell: Skull Moon.

Uncle Brains Shoegazer and ethereal sounds are very much undead... ehem, alive... with this gorgeous compilation. Beautiful melodies, enrapturing atmospheres and amazing vocals that will take your breath away. An interesting note is that all the songs with vocals are sung by men. Favorite track: Starstrewn and Tattered: Swan Song.

Erik A. Ingmanndsen Thank you so much Sam - no words can convey my deep gratitude : )

Sam writes:
I’m often contacted by bands looking for a label. Recently I thought, “Hey, some of these artists are pretty good. I should put together a compilation so others can hear this cool music!” And here it is, Discovery 1, a collection of unsigned bands. FREE at Bandcamp. My goal at Projekt has always been to assist your discovery of new music. A compilation like this brings together new artists which you might not have otherwise discovered. They cover a wide spectrum of the styles Projekt is known for. From goth to shoegaze to minimal synth… from post-rock to ethereal to sparse electronics… there’s a lot of great music here for all fans of the darkwave side of the Projekt label.
