Solo project of Nathan Morris (also in Novä Sphere), co-founder of Velvet Empire label that operated from mid to late 90s.
Nathan spent most of his life in Cyprus, and in 1989 he moved to Germany before living in USA

where he began Velvet Empire and wrote in 1996 the first demo cassette of EnGrave entitled "Benediction".
His music is heavily influenced by Europe and his love for synthesized music.

"Polaris" is a collection of songs written between 1996-1997

(4 new ones, 2 from compilations and the 4 songs from the "Benediction" demo)

and captures the best of a hybrid mix between ambient and electro darkwave.
A second album was planed for release in the spring of 1999 but this never happened.
