Ambient Music Thread Genre • Page 90

Sorry for not posting in the thread recently, I did try to listen to pretty much everything that got posted though and managed to find a bunch of things I really liked, so thanks everyone.

I have been kind of overwhelmed with all the music I bought on all of those bandcamp fridays so I still have a huge backlog, but here is some stuff that has helped me the last couple of months:

Marsha Fisher - New Ruins (this has kind of an interesting backstory, as it has tape-loops that come from old Christian genre music and praise cassettes)

James Osland - Almond Drive (love the use of field recordings in this one)

Pool Of Light - Modern Caveman (unreal drone stuff from Russia)

Kelby Clark - Fields Of Divination (pedal steel goodness)

kj - saturnalia (I have fallen in love with all things kj recently, and this is his newest work)

I'll follow up with a couple more from last week in a bit if that is ok.

Much love, everyone.

 

So hyped to dig into these, thanks y'all for sharing. This genre isn't as huge for me during the summertime but whenever I return to it, it always makes me feel cozy in my own skin.

 

Hollie Kenniff new album featuring her husband Keith (aka Goldmund aka Helios) on 2 tracks. Album was mastered by Rafael Anton Irisarri

 

This one is a goodie

 

Great freaking original song. Kind of melting rock, electro with a weird but great touch. And spot on for the lyrics dealing with substance abuse :

 

not sure if you guys are aware but will (formerly of tiny engines) has a new label that mostly caters to this style of music. they now have 10 releases and released a sampler. all but 2 of the artists fit in here nicely.

 

some other stuff I’ve been digging lately

 

Still have a lot to catch up on but thoroughly enjoyed new Walt McClements and the kj album.

Nick Zanca, formerly known as Mister Lies, is dropping his debut ambient/experimental album soon. The description and first single are pretty cool.

 

so. much. stuff.

I really appreciate this thread & everyone posting - it’s just so much shit out there it’s hard to keep up with all other gentes not to mention you know real life

 

Got a laugh (or two) out of this:

 

New Nadia Struiwigh album dropped a month ago, and I’m somehow just now finding out. Her debut was a favorite of mine a few years back. Excited to hear this one.

 

Here are some more recent releases that some of you might enjoy:

Arian Shafiee - Pastorale (almost every track on this one is a cooperation with someone (Chuck Johnson, Claire Rousay to name a few), so it sounds super diverse and interesting

Ian William Craig has a new (18+ minutes long) song on a split:

If I remember correctly there were multiple people who also enjoyed Dolphin Midwives' latest output, so here is the new album. But beware: this is way more vocal-centric that Liminal Garden.
Dolphin Midwives - Body Of Water

And finally this is probably my favorite "ambient-adjacent" summer album that you can listen to even when the sun is out and about.
Corntuth - The Desert Is Paper Thin

 

This is some gorgeous and dreamy stuff

 

That Bvdub double album that came out last month is a bit of an undertaking but it's so fucking good.

 

New Pendant (Huerco S.) incoming.

September 10.

 

This is also very good.

 

Still a lot to catch up on but that Kelby Clark album and the Celestial album are both transcendent

 

some beautiful stuff dropped on streaming today

 

First full length Album out now from my band Endless Nation.

RIYL: Mogwai, Caspian, Russian Circles, Pg.lost, Tides of Man.

 

new Yagya is a vibe

 

All amazing.

 

getting some Music for Airports vibes from this one - good stuff (albeit a bit generic)

 

this Son of Chi album is right up my alley

 

New Tim Hecker score

Unable to give it much of a review because I've fallen asleep to it multiple times already, but I think in a good way haha.

 

Listen to the new Nil Ciuro
