The 3rd Fire is an ambient hypnotic electronica project formed by Dominic Hemy back in May 2005. The discovery of drone, ambient and electronica music made an immediate impact and opened the door to a whole new way of making music; mixed with a love of all things progressive and extreme, it made for an interesting and unique cocktail of guitar-led music.
The debut album, 'Trapped: The Imprisonment Of The Mind' is based on a number of recordings done in the first two days of The 3rd Fire's existence, and is a study in the use of minimalistic sounds and variations to create an intense and disturbing environment without the use of any extraneous sources beyond the guitar. After many revisions and remixing, the album has finally been made available as a free download.

Reviewer:dan_vincent - - December 4, 2006 Subject: At last, a proper release for "Trapped" I was beginning to think that it would never come out.
Having heard parts of this some time ago, I knew that the source material was good, however, with the substantial remixing/overdubbing, it sounds so much better.
Depressing minimalist drones and tones... bleak, but beautiful.
