Xerxes The Dark :: Absurd (Zāl)
This heavy dark ambient drone album explores themes of false hopes and empty feelings, reflecting the absence of hope in our seemingly meaningless lives. These extended dark atmospheres feature a blend of warm soundscapes, melodic synthesizer accents and raw scratchy elements.
Fredrik Rasten :: strands of lunar light (Aspen Edities)
strands of lunar light takes as its material a series of 24 harmonics of a fundamental frequency of 5.15 Hz (a very low E, below normal human hearing range), using openly tuned guitar strings in various ways through the movements of the suite.
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.
Ossa :: Mono Cerebral EP (Facade Electronics)
The multi-medium artist behind Ossa from Indianapolis, Indiana, demonstrates his distinctive creative vision with an EP that balances intricate (modular) synth experimentation and raw energy.
Erik Wøllo :: Where the River Widens (Projekt)
Wøllo’s ability to channel raw, in-the-moment creativity while maintaining an overarching sense of cohesion makes Where the River Widens a true journey. Whether you’re a longtime fan of his work or new to his sound, this release is a stunning testament to the power of ambient guitar music.
Alexandre Navarro :: Les Toiles De Nuits (Facade Electronics)
In a world where music often trends toward the loud and assertive, Les Toiles De Nuits is a breath of fresh air. It celebrates the art of subtlety and the beauty of sparseness, inviting us to find solace in the spaces between sounds.
An-Ting :: Lost Communications (Self Released)
Music for contemplating our winged companions who have given us so much inspiration, reminding us that in our dreams and meditations we all have wings to fly.
Haswell & Hecker :: UPIC Diffusion Session #23 (Editions Mego)
UPIC Diffusion Session #23 begins with a cascade of glitchy static tones, each descending in pitch and rising in volume. They converge briefly around a central point, only to spiral down further as we begin to hear the distinct click of switches being flipped.
Giannis Gogos :: Light Within (Saos)
With a seamless blend of structured instrumentation and drifting passages, this ten-track suite unfolds as a collection of evolving, serene, and blurred shoegaze elements that hover just above the realm of organic surrealism.
V/A :: Transmission 010 (Imaginary North)
Throughout the compilation, Transmission 010 embraces a range of ambient sub-genres, from weightless hazy pads to richly dense sound design, ensuring that each listener finds moments that resonate. The interplay between light and shadow, movement and stillness, results in an experience that feels vast yet intimate.
