can a noise dude recommend some AMBIENT

i feel bad for posting on the ambient listening club now

have you guys heard the new oval song that's leaked? starts out kinda nice and chilled but then he ruins it with these big rock drums that sound like one of the loops you get in garagband

same blog has a transfer of the one truly good alvin curran album

new akira rabelais is very sick, highly rec'd

lol has anyone ever heard ry4n f4rish? the guy who singlehandedly created "the weather channel music" genre? (we rep him at work hence the googleproofing)

shit is too funny. serious cheesy new age/ambient.

F4rish has been a Weather Channel music staple for over a decade. His music has been an integral part in giving The Weather Channel (TWC) a musical identity.[3] Many of F4rish's works can be heard on TWC's Local on the 8s. One of his songs, "Holding Hands" is featured on The Weather Channel's CD released in October 2007, The Weather Channel Presents: The Best of Smooth Jazz. This compilation climbed to the No. 1 on the Billboard Jazz Album Chart. Farish's work with on TWC led to the channel commissioning an original score/theme for their primetime TV show "Storm Stories".

“Music, is a universal language. Powerful and meaningful, it can touch lives and speak through generations. With music, I hope to convey the following truth: Hope and faith exist to bring us together, and love endures forever. May this music shine light in a dark room, may it have purpose, in the service of Love.” - Ry4n F4rish

new Luc Ferrari CD of 1974/75 improvs 'Ephemere', worth it for the 51 minute 2nd track, acoustic guitar & overtones through tape delay, we've all heard pieces like this before but this is a real real gone one

The opening track on the Oneohtr1x is great blown-out Pita/Hassell stuff, and Emeralds is nice too, but I really especially love the new Rene Hell as far as the bigger-label Young Noismische America newer releases go (LP has a bonus disc that I like just as much) on Type: http://typerecords.com/releases/porcelain-opera-2

really especially love the new Rene Hell

thank you

Really loving this Walls album.

there was a deluxe looking LP of more Arctic/Antarctic sounds from Douglas Quin just a few months back. he did the sound in Werner Herzog's Encounters at the End of the World too.

ya, watching that movie last night was what hipped me to those sounds

love the seals

self--pedant me

recording of Antarctic Waddell Seals. different recording than Douglas Quin's 'At The Sea Ice Edge'.

^ awesome
these or similar were featured briefly in encounters at the end of the world

they just reused Quin's recording for the Herzog soundtrack instead of doing new location recording.

there are so many seals in the Quin recording, their descending whistles almost form a Shepard's Tone, sounds more like a multitracked modular than anything acoustic (i.e. it's been in every one of my DJ sets for the last two years, it goes with everything). it's a huge relief to have another recording to compare it to, on this one you can almost take this for something that actually happens

From his desolate arctic abode, a man once at home in the cities of our modern world has thrown his previous life away in search for the obscure splendor and natural desolation of his newly adopted homeland. Dan Quin has spent the last 10 years of his life mapping & mastering the animal & natural world of his promised land, the bottom of the earth, the South Pole, Antarctica, The End of the World---and apparently producing some of the newest in dark analog driven techno & house. Once a respected reporter for a prominent U.S. nature magazine, Quin went A.W.O.L. while on assignment documenting the mating habits of seals, only to reemerge as the founder of the 1st whale riding championship in history & the worlds only national liberation campaign for an unclaimed natural territory. An anti-social Steve Irwin with the heart of a lion and the cold skin of his beloved sea friends, his reputation among the few locals as a true hero & devoted follower of his adored native soil has earned him the title of duke of whales, and his presence, if not fest physically on the land due to his reclusive demeanor, is certainly felt spiritually as the saintly father of the region. Rumor has it that Quin was not seen for 6 months away from his arctic estate, apparently so entranced by the sea cries of his beloved seals that he was nearly lost in his own solitude, going on to record the beautiful cries that haunted him for so many nights. Determined to create what he called an artistic testament to the great Antarctic expanse, Quin employed the recordings on his 1st 12 release, the haunting and epic At The End of the World. We can only hope he continues to labor away in his igloo of inspiration, hearing further calls of primitive encouragement and continuing his crusade to bring the beautiful silence of the arctic to our warm & ready earlobes.

You're going to wonder what this has to do with ambient, but gis just got a million times better.

he's right

good tip on those mixes jaxon. i've had #2 on this morning. 4th result of gis for "cosmic" is ideal listening environment for these imo

been feeling these two a lot over the past couple of nights
