ive actually listened to them before-- extremely beautiful stuff. have you ever listened to that Riceboy Sleeps project the dude from sigur ros did? its amaaaaazing. im desperate for more ambient like that
yes, I have - real good stuff you might be interested in exploring Benoit Pioulard - depending on the album, you'll get a different experience ranging from folk pop with ambient soundscapes, to absolutle abstract pastoral drones maybe somewhere in the middle you'll hit something similar in feel to that Riceboy Sleeps album and also, obviously, this:
wow intro to music for public ensemble has me hyppppeeedddd (and relaxed) edit: this album is blowing me away rn
glad you dig! i was recently obsessed with the back half of Apollo and ended up finding that album. -- this album is pretty cool
well, it's interesting both share a similar "sound space" but the process differed significantly (private (Sean solo) vs public (Sean + a lot of contributions) so they arrive to different conclusions think of the albums as different sides of the same coin
I listened to For Those of You Who Have Never (And Also Those Who Have) today after seeing it on Pitchfork's top 50 albums list. I've never listened to an ambient album before, but this is really great. Looks like I have some catching up to do with this genre, haha.
Helios' Eingya was a good entry into the genre for me. I'd also check out Stars of the Lid (probably Tired Sounds Of first, then And Their Refinement of the Decline)
really been enjoying this one as of late wonderful playful symphonic ambient - light, almost happy sounding and very musical If you're into Olafur Arnalds, you will will dig this - I know I do
