With the Kabbalah influenced project the motto Music of the Mystic,
Mystics of the Music is at the forefront of The Shyfrin Alliance project.
Shyfrin Alliance return with In the Shadow of Time, the much-anticipated second album from the ground-breaking musical project founded by award-winning author, businessman and scientist Eduard Shyfrin.
It follows on from the success of their 2024-released debut Upside Down Blues, which made the playlists on radio stations across the US, UK, and Europe, racked up half a million streams on Spotify, and marked its writer as a singular talent. In the Shadow of Time expands Shyfrin Alliance’s extraordinary musical and lyrical alchemy: thrilling blues rock, Eduard’s distinctive authoritative bass voice, and his quest to push the boundaries of scientific and philosophical concepts.
In the Shadow of Time, Eduard takes a fearless step into the unknown: the complex topic of time. Each of the seven blues-rock songs – recorded with top rock musicians from France at Paris studios Barillet, Ferber and Grand Armee – is dedicated to different aspects of time and how we tackle it. At moments, listeners fall deep down into the Black Hole of sound and thought, only to be carried back into the realm of the Pendulum, where time swings endlessly between light and shadow.
“I don’t think there exists an album dedicated purely to the topic of time,” Eduard says. “You will not find another album like this. My principle is I may always be afraid to enter new areas, but I will always enter them. Even if it means daring to hit the Wall of Time.”
The album continues Eduard Shyfrin’s deep exploration of Kabbalah and science, the subjects of his Amazon bestselling book From Infinity to Man: The Fundamental Ideas of Kabbalah Within the Framework of Information Theory and Quantum Physics.
Already, Shyfrin Alliance have shared one new single from the record, Buddha Blues – an enthralling and uplifting earworm blues-rock melody with irresistible guitar licks, piano, hammond organ and a gospel-blues chorus. Its message? A Buddhism-inspired one of time as a healer.
The title track imagines time as an ominous figure controlling us mortals, a dramatic soundscape of rolling drums and threatening bass baritone portraying the feeling of torment as Eduard grapples with time’s unfathomable nature. He compares its unrecognisably mysterious forms to an abstract expressionist painting such as by Jackson Pollock, because “we don’t know who is there. It’s a great mystery. Who is this pushing us to do something, when we are in the shadow of time? He’s shapeless.”
Not that Eduard would relish taking on a topic that was anything other than challenging. “All my research on Kabbalah and science is challenging. There is no other author on this topic. We cannot provide the final answers – that’s not realistic on such a difficult and unique topic. But we shouldn’t stop searching.”
In the Shadow of Time may be a bold enterprise, but the more you delve in, the more you are drawn into its captivating world. As Eduard himself puts it: “Take a mind-bending journey with me – through mysticism, science, and the music of time itself.”
The time for Shyfrin Alliance is now.
