DESCRIPTION:
In 2008, Tympanik Audio introduced our listeners to Integral, an esoteric duo from Germany, and their debut album 'Rise'. With a very personal approach to a wide range of multi-layered and hauntingly beautiful compositions, 'Rise' proved to be a gem in the Tympanik catalog and a highly appreciated aural experience for its listeners.

As we all waited patiently for a new album, Integral began sifting through their minds and hard drives seeking the origins of their creativity. The results of that search took on the title of 'The Past Is My Shadow', eighteen unreleased and newly mastered songs that expertly construct the foundation for what would eventually become the Integral we know and admire today.
