One of the many experimental three-track records from Bernhard Living, From Here to There is yet another exploration of tonality and thought.

Ümlaut :: The Black Square (Self Released)
These memory-recordings expose the complex relationship between music and silence. They say that the ambient umbrella constantly expands the notions of what music might be. The Black Square could be wordless new ear poetry for the constant listener. I think that The Black Square might be a series of sound situations that flow and change as they go.
Japanese ambient music :: Minimal environment and zen-inspired sonic sculptures
Through multiple evolutions along decades, with a refined combination of harmonies, a deep sense of space, a phenomenology of time and bright sonic manipulations based on acoustic timbres, Japanese artists invite the listener to enlightened and intuitive inner promenades.
REVANT :: MOSS EP (Self Released)
MOSS provides a gripping and thoughtful listen. Mellow, ambient, relaxing and electroacoustic—hopefully there is more to come from the Mumbai, India-based musician.

Francisco Sonur :: Blurred Cities (Móatún 7)
Blurred Cities presents an engaging and brilliant sound excursion, crafting poignant pieces with a slight departure from his usual sorrowful dusty neoclassical ambient in favor of more hypnotic and discreetly beat-laden ambient chills.
Mono Hideout :: Visions EP (Adventurous Music)
A pleasantly relaxed transmission of minimalist, nearly imperceptible soundtracks from Mono Hideout’s Visions EP for Adventurous Music ignites something extraordinary and surreal.
Jo Johnson :: Let Go Your Fear (Castles In Space)
The merge between synthesizers and the ethereal new age do make up for an interesting combination, one that always remains comfortable throughout the album; when they’re there, the arpeggiated synths give an interesting edge to the compositions, making them a bit more corpulent.
Tomotsugu Nakamura :: For A Fleeting Moment (IIKKI)
All in all For A Fleeting Moment is a serene minimal lowercase ambient exploration that will ravish followers of zen-inspired ambient aesthetics from classy Japanese sound designers such as Hiroshi Yoshimura and Yoshio Ojima, but also those who come across the production of LINE Records (notably referring to the slow motion sound architectures of Manja Ristić, Richard Chartier, and Olivier Alary.
Maes Y Circles :: Maes Y Circles (GOTO)
Maes Y Circles’ self-titled album is a solid work with some great tracks. Audio technology is showcased, but because the sounds are of a vintage quality hearkening back to musicians such as Tangerine Dream and Vangelis.
Ty Lumnus :: Phase Music (Self Released)
Fraser Rowan is an independent and interesting creative spirit whose sound production deserves to be discovered by all fans of chill and downtempo ambient music.
