“A mosaic of the human experience,” indeed, Carbon Based Shrine is a somber, illbient-tinged, and introspectively dark soundscape with sporadic bursts of lighter parts piercing through the ashes.

Philippe Neau :: Domus (Lotophagus)
These eight compositions feature atmospheric notes, delicate tones, and drones, but the real attraction of Domus is the organic beauty of its flora and fauna.
Cathode Ray Tube :: The Oryx At Night EP (Condition Human)
Cathode Ray Tube keeps up his regular aural explorations and characterizes his most recent work as dark ambient / Deutsche kosmiche, but he also explores a world in which certain audibles have form and others remain formless.
Galati :: Cold As a February Sky (Glacial Movements)
A representative and well-crafted album of modern day ambient synthedelica with everything you may like regarding textured lush atmospheres which invite to explore the great unknown while being immersed in natural primordial stillness.
Stormy Acres :: Phantom Detractor (Not Yet Remembered)
These are undoubtedly dark ambient veils woven by a dedicated sonic detailer. All in all, a pulsating, abstract, and translucent album.
Robin Parmar :: Citalá, River of Stars (Silent)
Contemporary pieces that reflect the ancient idea of the music of the spheres into the world of contemplative electronica.
Humanfobia :: RINGU リング (2024) (Let’s Talk Figures)
Humanfobia has brought a path of death and destruction across the planet. This latest offering is a master work of horror and anguish that surely few can survive. The sound is not complicated, bass and keys with strange tones, groaning guttural unearthly sounds and sexy whispers from a ghost who follows me into my dreams.
Particules :: Escape Path (Mahorka)
Particules’ Escape Path is a tidal wave of sound structures, with nine tracks of meticulously arranged chaos.
Nimh :: Before And After Silence (Zoharum)
A visceral voyage into deep hypnagogic textures, magnetic clouds and ominous towering moves. These audio works can easily convince those into cryptic drone manifests of Jonathan Coleclough, Colin Potter, Grant Evans, and Dead Voices on Air.
Parallel Worlds :: Artiphon (Móatún 7)
Artiphon, the most recent release from prolific experimental sound designer Parallel Worlds (aka Bakis Sirros), features several peaks and valleys of dark ambient strands.
bvdub | Brock Van Wey :: Leaving (Self Released)
Like Blade Runner directed by Ridley Scott, bvdub’s Leaving alludes to the end of a person’s life. The music uses a dark-ambient approach to bring the listener to this point in the present.
