Ambient - The Megathread

[Guest AcrossCanyons]

 

akira kosemura's album "polaroid piano"

[perunamuusi]

Afx's Rhubarb is the single most beautiful track ever made.

 

basically this

 

also lichen

 

and stone in focus

 

and UK by burial

 

is this pretty?

 

also on land by eno

 

i dunno there's so much "ambient" but only a tiny fraction of it moves me one way or the other

The most beautiful sounds I've ever heard. This one's by deathprod, not biosphere btw. The whole album is great (and very pretty, check out warp - warble) and so is deathprod's work, albeit quite dark.

One of my favourites, holding hands with Rhubarb:

Didn't know that one yet, but October Language is nice. "Tour EP", is that sort of a live ep?

Solyaris is a strange dude from Italy, not very known, who makes beautiful music with just a loop machine and a guitar. His music is hard to get by but you could find it on what.cd or you can even PM me.

 

This reminds me of fuzzy orange beehive:

evokes very calm, open, summery vibes for me.

edit: actually this is probably my favourite manga, anime and soundtrack, altogether. I had the good fortune to see Plaid perform this soundtrack live at a screening of the film in the Opera House, I was in heaven.

 

:wub: me too! in that it's my favourite, not that i was at the opera house.. i wish!

 

plaid came through here and played with the chicago symphony orchestra in 2008 right before i moved here i think

Loving Akira Kosemura and belong. That Solyaris sounds lovely, am gonna try and track that down.

 

graham lambkin/jason lescalleet - air supply - is definitely interesting...beauty is in there...dunno if I would call it pretty again...but thanks for the recommendation...:)

 

Also just discovered the Grouper album A I A: Alien Observer. hot damn that is gorgeous.

many thanks for posting this - i remember someone was describing his music to me a couple years back, never rememberd the name...until now!

 

however, its also quite annoying - his music is exactly the type of music i'd hope to make...but hes done it already...

there is a piece by Thomas Köner called "Une Topographie Sonore - Col de Vence"

I love to put it on and let the sounds form an environment around me. It is full of sounds of rain...insects at times, dirt crumbling underfoot, leaves brushing past.
