Hiemis – Nephilim (Digital/CD Album – Noctivagant)
Spanish artist Juan Carlos Toledo continues his prolific output under the Hiemis name. In this latest work, inspired by the mythical and Biblical figures of the ‘Nephilim,’ Toledo delves into an intensely dark musical landscape mixing Dark-Ambient, Cinematic, and Soundscape elements. The atmosphere is deeply ominous, with powerful, resonating sound waves that evoke a desolate, hopeless world. “Nephilim” feels like a journey with no return, capturing the breath of the afterlife -a relentless, cutting wind that lingers as you pass through it alone. Hiemis has crafted a production with strong visual appeal, offering beautiful tracks that, despite their inherent monotony, captivate the listener. (Rating:7½).

Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
