about

Sound In Silence is happy to announce the return of The Green Kingdom, presenting his new album Voyager.

The Green Kingdom is the solo project of Michael Cottone, a sound artist and graphic designer based in Michigan, USA. Interested in creating compositions which blur the lines between soundscape and structure while keeping a sharp focus on melody, his pieces are crafted using a variety of instruments, electronic sources, sampled textures and field recordings.

Since 2006 he has released several wonderful albums and EPs on labels such as Lost Tribe Sound, Dronarivm, Home Assembly Music, Hidden Vibes, Past Inside The Present and many others.

This is his third album on the label after the highly acclaimed Seen And Unseen in 2018 and Solaria in 2021.

Voyager is a melodic ambient album of twelve new tracks with a total duration of about 43 minutes. Seamlessly blending together ringing melodies, soothing electric guitar swells, textures of lush synth pads, twinkling chimes, lulling acoustic guitar chords, delicate electric piano, subtle bass lines and gentle rhythms, Cottone creates a wonderful album inspired by the Voyager spacecraft, which has entered interstellar space. Voyager is now the furthest any man-made object has been from Earth, which according to Cottone symbolizes a continual sense of exploration and discovery.

Voyager is a beautiful album of floating ambience and evocative soundscapes, carefully mastered by George Mastrokostas (aka Absent Without Leave), which appeals to all fans of artists such as Helios, Hammock, Harold Budd and July Skies.

Voyager comes in two distinct editions.

The first one is a deluxe limited edition of 50 handmade, hand-stamped and hand-numbered collectible copies. The disc of this edition includes three exclusive bonus tracks, not included in the other edition or the digital download. It is packaged in a lovely, hand-tied, sewn fabric envelope, which includes a 4 panel insert sheet containing tracklist and information printed on a 250 gsm orange recycled cardboard and the front cover image printed on a polaroid style photo paper. It also comes bundled with a download code coupon and a Sound In Silence card.
