About Amethystium
Amethystium is an Ambient/Electronica/Neoclassical music project created by Norwegian producer, composer and multi-instrumentalist Øystein Ramfjord. Under the Amethystium name, Ramfjord has released five full-length albums (Odonata, Aphelion, Evermind, Isabliss, and Transience), a collection of works (Emblem (Selected Pieces)), as well as two EPs, all on Neurodisc Records. Its albums include: Autumn Interlude, Odonata, and Aphelion, among others (Wikipedia).
Amethystium is the soundtrack to a journey – between light and darkness, humanity and fantasy. A dreamy fusion of ambient electronica, world music and neoclassical darkwave, the music walks a tight-rope between bliss and melancholy, taking listeners on an emotive escape from the ordinary.
Created by Norwegian composer and producer Øystein Ramfjord, and often featuring guest musicians, Amethystium started with the self-released album Odonata in 1999. It quickly garnered a following through word of mouth, receiving over 1.5 million downloads from the old MP3.com site. The following three album releases on Neurodisc Records each spent multiple weeks on the American Billboard charts, and sold over 100.000 copies worldwide.
Transience, the fifth studio album, was released in March 2014. It fuses moody and melodic electronica with subtle vocals, strings and Norwegian folk music instrumentation. The album was created largely with mobile equipment while living and traveling in fifteen different countries over a two year period
