Release Date: 06/30/2021

Released in advance of Cardinal Winds, Prelude III served as a cryptic signal—offering no announcement, only atmosphere.

This cassette contained the backing tracks for the entire Cardinal Winds album, stripped of all guitars and drums. What remained was the pulse and structure beneath the surface: bare, exposed, and prophetic.

The artwork and track titles gave subtle glimpses into the themes and architecture of the coming release, hinting at water, wind, orientation, and collapse. Though silent on the surface, the cassette whispered direction to those attuned.

This was not a teaser.
It was a navigation chart.
And the deluge was drawing near.
