“Rushing Over A Formless Void” is the first release from my new project titled “The Book Of Adam”. This project is the true sequel to “The Heavens Declare...” and serves as the missing link between that and “Entropy”.
I also created a short film, also titled “Rushing Over A Formless Void” (it's kind of a development of the “Video Paintings” that I made for “The Heavens Declare...”) which is based on the digital painting I created for the sleeve art. If you’d like to watch it, you can do so here:

I’ve chosen not to release "The Book Of Adam" in the conventional album format, instead, individual tracks will be released from time to time. I think of these tracks as “sonic paintings” each one is best experienced on its own, and allowed to “breathe” without being confined within a traditional album structure. However, right now I am thinking about putting 10 or so additional tracks that I’ve got together as a separate but related album underneath the umbrella of “The Book of Adam” but we’ll see what happens, I might change my mind and just release them separately as well. I’m in no rush and I can’t see an end to this project as I write this, I've got a pretty healthy pile of tracks so far and I'm still recording. I'm also working on more Digital Paintings etc. and I’ve still not even begun work on the sculptures, so I can't see an end in sight right now. If and when it does get finished, I'm considering gathering everything together at the end as a Digital Box Set, similar to what I did with "The Heavens Declare..." Special Edition (

More details to follow soon, although I’m not going to write too much before a few of the tracks are released, as I want to see how the music does without any accompanying narrative to shape anyone’s opinion.
I would be really interested to hear from anyone who listens to these tracks; please feel free to let me know what comes to your mind, you can email me through the contact link here on my Bandcamp page (I’m no longer on Instagram, although I’ve left the link up in case I change my mind). It probably goes without saying, but please be sure to listen to this (and, well, all of my music really) through headphones, as I’ve designed this to (hopefully) be an immersive listening experience.
