about

Bryan Tewell Hughes combines ethereal Electronica with organic and acoustic elements to produce lush, detailed, enigmatic pieces. As a composer, musician, and audio craftsman, Hughes’ vision is rich, attention-grabbing, and original; AeTopus albums are not mere collections of individual songs - they are flowing, thematic works of sonic art through which universal themes gently emerge with abstraction and sophistication.

This full-length 2015 release showcases Hughes's ever-evolving style, taking the listener on a journey that dances between the past and future using both acoustic texture and otherworldly electronic flourishes. With subtle, pastoral elegance, a world is revealed that is simultaneously foreign and familiar - an aural mosaic rich with seasonal variance, spiritual contemplation, and ancient ritual.
