Kilometre Club :: It Doesn’t Snow In Toronto Anymore (Imaginary North)
Listening, I want the big fat flakes to fall from these dense ambient envelopes and rippling contours. Yet like the snow, these flakes of sound don’t fall, they just hover over the listener with a sense of unknowing dread. Moody isn’t even the half of it.
Lantscap :: Fragile Peaks (Home Normal)
Fragile Peaks is a deeply engaging (in the sense of the quality of engagement being ‘deep’) slow burner, though that descriptor might misrepresent the intensity of a piece that, fire-wise, is more of a smoulder—a low-lit one at that.

Gentle layers of just a few ingredients are added to other related elements, augmenting each other to showcase a natural magic. These are dreamscapes for rest and recuperation, and I don’t see any error or wrongdoing in them at all.

f5point6 :: A World Within Our World (See Blue Audio) — Video premiere
Almost everything about this LP is really engaging and well executed. It nails its details, there’s so much variety in the longer tracks that it’s difficult to feel bored by their repetitive atmosphere or palette, as all the variations or added textures f5point6 displays make these tracks work incredibly well.
Taavi Tulev :: Kuku! (Self-Released)
The environment teems naturally, birds chirp, a breeze gently fleets, the lake splashes and bees pan across the stereo field, humming in and out. It’s […]
