V/A :: For LA Vol. 3 (Helios Music)
As with previous volumes, For LA Vol. 3 not only highlights the creative brilliance of its contributors but also stands as a testament to the power of music in driving meaningful change.
Ian Boddy & Harald Grosskopf :: Doppelgänger (DiN)
A masterclass in Berlin School-inspired sequencing, immersive soundscapes, and a fusion of electronic textures that recall the golden age of 1970s synthesis while embracing modern production techniques.
John Bickerton :: Atlas Eclipticalis – The music of John Cage & Earle Brown (Simple Harmonic Motion)
The music of John Cage & Earle Brown captures the essence of Cage’s and Brown’s avant-garde philosophies, making it essential for enthusiasts of experimental classical music, and for those that want to tip their toe into exploring the beginnings of electronic music.
V/A :: For LA Vol. 1 & Vol. 2 (Nettwerk)
Ultimately, For LA Vol. 1 & For LA Vol. 2 are more than just impressive collections of ambient works. They are a heartfelt response to tragedy, amplifying the voices of artists who use sound to bring comfort and aid. This release is not just worth a listen—it’s worth supporting, as every note carries the weight of healing and hope for a city in need.
Irkya :: Mind Fog (Wormhole World)
There’s a meditative quality to Mind Fog, but not in a way that lulls you to sleep—more like guiding you through a lucid dream where each track is a different room in a strange, beautiful house.
Kostas Vlahas :: Wavecrushers (Same Difference Music)
What sets Wavecrushers apart from traditional ambient music is its immersive and dynamic nature—it’s too captivating to simply fade into the background.
Giancarlo Toniutti :: Bàardum Guùmuse (For Your Red Tongue) (Anomalous)
Released on Anomalous Records, this album exemplifies his unique approach to electroacoustic composition, where organic and synthetic elements blend into a hypnotic, primal experience.
Tim Hecker :: Shards (Kranky)
Even though these tracks were created for different projects, Shards doesn’t feel like a mere compilation. Instead, it plays like a carefully curated journey through Hecker’s brooding, textural world.
