Mogilalia: Surrealist, modern classical ambient with tranquil trascendence.

Mogilalia is ambient music with modern classics and neoclassical influences. The atmosphere of the music has been likened to the visions that you can see on the canvases of such artists like Salvador Dali and Picasso. The sounds are like the soundtrack to the films of David Lynch.

The composer of Mogilalia's music is Dmitry Dolgov, born in Siberia, Russia. Dmitry started to make music for his Mogilalia progect in 2011, before that he was composing songs for his indie rock project Thread of Narration.

At the age of 29, Dmitry was playing indie rock and heavy metal songs but always felt drawn to ambient music. He bought a midi-keys in 2011, plugged it into his laptop and started composing ambient and oriential modern classic pieces. Dmitry has no musical education and not that much piano practice!

Dmitry is fond of different esoteric and transcendental ideas, ideas of dissolution in absolute being, ideas of escaping from material attachments. These have a large influence on his music. Every time he composes, he enters a transcendental meditation. Each song is an exploration of a transcendental place, a journey to other planets with different atmospheres, different emotive powers.
