Found that Double Fantasy LP last weekend. Canadian pressing. Have to believe Carl Craig had a copy in the late 80s. The influence is so obvious.

i don't know if this is the right thread for this since it's more balearic than new age but wth, i love this song

the first track to jump out at me from that turned out to be a bonnie prince billy cover which makes me feel gross. but i am interested.

Exercises was one of my favourite releases of the last few years but not really feeling the new one. Not sure his vocal is strong enough for some of the tracks. Some nice sounds though.

The recent I Am The Center compilation of beautiful, blissed out private press tracks is great and fits this thread (although lots of it is Old Skool New Age)

thought I was listening to mistagged mp3s the first time I played that. as in, the only explanation for what I was hearing was that I was being outright pranked by the friend who'd given me the files.

in the 80's Windham Hill and Hearts of Space were diametrically opposed camps of new age, you really did not find much crossover (there's only one artist I can think of who was on both labels). now it's all bleeding into one big unholy mess.

just ordered up that mcguire LP, gr80. psyched 2 own it.

co2o personal highlight, but great all the way through

I wasn't too keen on 301 Symphony but Lord of the Isles is in general a really good producer. Love this one so much:

Not an indie-hater or anything but hearing the voices of Kozelek, Malkmus, etc pop up on here is a serious buzzkill

Nice

severely underutilized thread, i should post more stuff here

So this is not new music, but a friend recently posted this on FB; I only knew Luís Cília as a protest song folkie, so was surprised to discover he did ambient like this:

That in turn lead me to this playlist:

this is a great playlist, thanks for posting

Welcome! Excited by the (very remote) possibility that the next digger target might be a country where I have a head start :)

Daniel_Rf, Monday, 26 March 2018 10:51 (six years ago) link

That Vakula album/double EP really is incredible.

wrong thread obv!

That excerpt is definitley harshing my buzz :(

Daniel_Rf, Sunday, 1 April 2018 13:39 (six years ago) link

not quite in the chilled out kosmische spirit of the new Vakula ep, for sure.

Don't think I've heard one of his albums since The Soft Wave but the new Arp record is great and probably a fit for this thread

New Eleventeen Eston lp (on Growing Bin) is sounding great on first listen. I really dug Delta Horizon and "Indian Blue" is like the ultimate hazey smooth smoked out underwater balearic basement demo. Must revisit the Wilson/Tanner disc at some point..

brimstead, Sunday, 1 July 2018 23:23 (five years ago) link

Never heard Delta Horizon but it’s sounding great, thanks for the recommendation B. This is what makes ilx great

that Eleventeen Eston is really special

boxedjoy, Tuesday, 3 July 2018 09:41 (five years ago) link

Something about the production I guess has an Ariel pink flavor to me

calstars, Tuesday, 3 July 2018 20:34 (five years ago) link

the back cover is kind of hilarious.. he lists some "instruments" he plays on it but i think they're all model numbers of assorted fishing gear???
