I really like this Rosenau & Sanborn EP (LP?):https://rosenausanborn.bandcamp.com/album/bluebird
The pastoral guitar and creaky ambient room sounds + modular synths make it like an album-length incarnation of those modular instagram videos with lots of plants and tasteful interior decorating. But, like, in a good way.

Celer's having a closeout sale on his Bandcamp site, FYI. Looks 3/4ths sold out, at least the physical side. Picked up Nacreous Clouds.

Maybe it's the point? It's one of my favourites from this year too, it's a great (very) early morning record.

I am going to bring this thread into further disrepute by recommending Víkingur Ólafsson's fabbo Bach Reworks album on here.

Have been listening to the Kali Malone album a lot this week, it's also fun to compare it to Organ Dirges 2016 - 2017 and to these recordings: https://soundcloud.com/leguesswho/sets/kali-malone-live-at-le-guess-who-2019
Also gave the new Ben Vida a listen: https://shelterpress.bandcamp.com/album/reducing-the-tempo-to-zero I found it surprisingly engrossing, but obviously it's a bit of a commitment.

Posted this in the 2019 album poll thread, posting it here as well:
There were some good recommendations upthread for fans of the Kali Malone album. Allow me to add a few:
Satie - Messe des Pauvres (organ-only version) Spotify
Feldman - Principal Sound Spotify
Blake Hargreaves - Improvisations on the pipe organs of Europe bandcamp
Heck, maybe even Keith Jarrett's Hymns/Spheres... you never know. Spotify

new Saphileaum album is nice.

Nice is otm. It's comforting and 'safe' but does the job properly.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Friday, 6 March 2020 10:43 (four years ago) link
it allegedly is a concept album about a journey into the Caucasian mountains to find some mystic monks or something, but bollox aside sometimes you just need something a bit chill for a period, especially when your nightmares are becoming daymares!
― calzino, Friday, 6 March 2020 11:06 (four years ago) link
I can recommend 'Live At The Edge' by DK on the excellent 12th Isle label. It's a recording of a live ambient set in South Korea I think. You can hear one side of it here - https://soundcloud.com/12th-isle/dk-live-at-the-edge-isle0085

there is something refreshingly out of sync with current trends about the pulse emitter record. that dude has been publishing earnest blog posts and churning out his synth stuff for like decades seemingly in portland and that energy comes through in a great way. i was listening to the malibu record which isn't really ambient i realized; it takes up a ton of psychological space and its cool but not, like, ego-destroying

pulse emitter is the best! speaking of, he released this noise tape earlier this month which is really more of a dark ambient record: https://pulseemitter.bandcamp.com/album/crack-of-stone

It's auto-selected ambient music (from Soundcloud) with live shortwave radio broadcasts. You can select the broadcasts from a whole range of different cities.
I should have said - rather than dumping a weird looking link on the thread!
