László Hortobágyi is a Hungarian musician and musicologist who weaves a singular world of myth and imagination at the boundaries of New Age, Ambient, experimental, and ethnographic music.

This in expanded and remastered of László Hortobágyi's 1989 masterpiece, with previously-unreleased songs from the same recording sessions, all presented in the narrative order in which it was conceived.

The amygdala is a collection of cells near the base of the brain that are directly related to feelings of fear, offering certain clues into Hortobágyi's compositions that presents this region as a mysterious geographic realm of discovery for a sonic explorer.

"The Amygdala Expedition" hails from a series of compositions that began to emerge during the late '80s and early '90s. Presenting new forms of myth-making and imagination at the boundaries of the real and unreal, Hortobágyi's compositions take form as a unique idiom of experimental music that delves toward New Age temperaments, while drawing heavily on a deep understanding of various musical traditions (recordings of which are threaded throughout) to construct a world of sonic myth and narrative, as though the gates of a new world have opened. This is like nothing else and will hold endless revelations for anyone yet to encounter his work.
