Encounters is the debut album from Zantilla aka Adrian Shegstad, that focuses on J. Allen Hynek's Scale of Close Encounters which relates to everything from UFO sightings, to abductions, and even communication between humans and extraterrestrial beings.

To paint this musical picture, Adrian chose a wide array of FM sounds, with some 2A03 additions. This, in combination with modern metal recording techniques and live drum sounds, give Encounters a very rich sonic palette using simple textures.
