Picture
The Gateless Gate's second recording (2013) was made entirely with vocal sounds, both raw and processed. The recording was inspired the The Gateless Gate's practice of Zen Buddhism and was influenced by such artists as David Hykes and the Harmonic Choir, Dead Can Dance, Stephan Micus and Popol Vuh. The album features pieces for choral harmonies, throat singing and drones.

All recording and performance by The Gateless Gate
Mastered by Shawn Delnick at Studio W19, Toronto
Cover layout by Jonathan Relph

The album is available at Bandcamp, as .wav files.
