-On Physical Form Soon-



"Heaven has created an extraordinary release, filled with majestic atmospheres, powerful melodies and unique sounds. Proxima is the best Heaven release by far. Congratulations." - Emperor XIX

"Heaven takes the plunge into mythology and lore to craft a sizzling musical adventure with godly choral leads and powerfully intricate and solid rhythms. The genre of dungeon-synth is excavated and reveals that below its depths exists an entire labyrinth. Spoken-word samples send the listener beyond instrumental appreciation and firmly into the journey of Proxima. The imagery throughout is awe-inspiring. Drums feel like heart beats and exhalations as you tread further into the labyrinth. It is impossible to pick a favorite on the initial listen, as the entire record is meticulously formed to be listened in-full. Heaven’s sound palette has expanded drastically from previous releases, utilizing frequency modulation, cleverly baked distortion and wonderful gliding notes to remind the listener of the benevolence of the Gods that put us in this labyrinth. Heaven remains the Olympian demigod that shapes dungeon synth into an incredibly strong and... addicting listening experience, with-or-without tabletop games in the mix." - Spaceseer



"Heavy hitting Industrial-like beats clashing together with beautiful dungeon music made in (and by) Heaven. Some tracks like "I Am The Gods“ even go into the synthwave territory. For me, you are the magician of the fast tracker." - Thanaphos

"Proxima takes Heaven's iconic sound to new depths of mythological exploration. More utterances and vocalizations are present than on Deus ex Machina, and they add considerable gravitas to the compositions. The album rewards an uninterrupted listening, and Mountain has plenty of messages to deliver throughout. Mesmerizing mythos from a master!" - Wood Archer

"This dungeon synth album is unlike anything I've heard recently and will surprise the listener in unique ways. The percussion is one of the shining aspects of "Proxima" and plays a lead role throughout the experience. All while dark melodies dance as if entranced. The tracks are packed with hidden riffs that intertwine, build, and grow with subtlety. Drenched in a sense of time immaterial, the album begs the listener to step through the portal and walk the dark and mysterious streets of some ancient civilization." - Chaos Lord (Relics Of The Eternal City)

"Unique percussions, great pacing, mesmerizing storytelling and an original but simultaneously classic atmosphere. Proxima is an album you can get instantly hooked to." - Ancient Spirit

"Proxima is an amazing album from an excellent musician that takes you on an atmospheric aura in a fantasy world, with amazing sounds that represent this genre. You have to listen to this and let yourself into the magical world of its melody!" - Apocalyptic Leaders

"A harmoniously-tuned and compiled collection of saturation. Heaven blends a precise and balanced palette of lo-fi samples and instruments in his strongest release yet - highly recommended." - Elyvilon

"Proxima" is a cold dungeonwave album that blends energetic, dark and mystic vibes, with trance-inducing, hypnotic beats that had me nodding my head from the very start. You have a heart of gold - don't let them take it from you." - Sweet 8 Bitterness

"My good friend Heaven delivers an epic and varied journey once again, combining aesthetics from many different genres. As a whole, this brings back memories of AMIGA 'demo disks' from the '90s, combining youthful nostalgia with more contemporary elements. This is clearly a labor of love by Heaven, who is paving the way for Greek lofi fantasy music. Clear 48 minutes in your day, put on your favourite headphones, lie back, and enjoy!" - Idylls Of The Last King

"Heaven's new album is unique as always, with great melodies and drum beats from start to finish. It really is an amazing album." - Eternal Kerberus

"I love it. it reminds me much more of a video game soundtrack than some of your other works, it would fit so well with an old RPG game" - Angelmore
