Ambient - The Megathread

[Alcofribas]

yeah it's weird. like you said, "loops over land" is so lush but the stuff on mms is very meh. i'd be really interested in anything else with a "loops..." vibe.

 

andrew pls

Classic. Can't believe it came out in 07. I guess that goes for all of Köner's work though. They all sound like they could've been produced today.

 

The latest from 12k:

^^ i just ordered the illuha cd, sample sounded great.

[Tauhid]

Nice. I ordered that and the Seaworthy/Deupree earlier. I was holding out for a summer sale (cheap ass), but only 40 copies of the latter were in stock as of this morning.

 

You won't be disappointed with the Illuha. I saw them live last year in Oakland. Was super lush, haha. Check out their studio album Shizuku as well.

Alio Die is my hero.

 

Not easy to find ambient favourites on youtube.

The softer, floatier side-project of WANDA GROUP a.k.a. Louis Johnstone f.k.a. DEM HUNGER.

Love this guy and his body of work. Fascinating. Most interesting twitter account I've seen as well (@WANDAGROUP).

Yeah, I'm into this!

The second one ("Elisa") reminds me of "Dok"-era Oval without the abrasiveness.

[Tauhid]

Chris Herbert is great. He has a new album (finally) coming out on Room40 hopefully this year.

[Mindphaser]

This guy is a master of deep and warm Ambient.

That first one is pretty great.

I like White Bird Release. Wasn't very into the Pan American albums that came beforehand though.
