Richard Skelton :: the old thrawing crux (Aeolian)
These soundscapes exist within a delicate balance of fragility, inchoate shape and form yet held together with a structure and purpose set forth by the composer himself. It bears repeated listenings which will bear different fruit each time, and comes highly recommended.
Lorenzo Montanà :: Return to the Labyrinth, a Pete Namlook tribute
This tribute is for Pete Namlook. To honor his memory, I brought together several artists who had worked with him or released music on his label. It has been an intense labor of love spanning nearly two years, and I am profoundly grateful to everyone who contributed their sounds, their hearts, and their spirit to this project. ~Lorenzo Montanà

Comechelet x ϙue :: TIME (re.core)
Aesthetically, although beatless, this new work TIME is an ambitious break from ambient music’s associations with the wellness industry, or any connection to environmental music, a sound that is Post-Ambient, leaving faded glimpses of stylistic references.
