Ambient Related Releases (Drone, Field Recording, Neo-Classical, Experimental)


Recommended Posts

Alright so I have found that if I make a separate thread for a lot of smaller know ambient/experimental acts they fall to the bottom in lightning time! If its ok with everyone I would like to keep this thread as a means to post upcoming ambient LPs (I recommend & hopefully others recommend) - At least they will be saved via key word searches! 

 

Quick standards: Artist - Title / Order Link / Few words about music and/or classification & SAMPLES if avail 

 

Come on people of VC lets see people expand their taste and join in! I know the ambient thread (discussion) hit it off for a bit so there should be interest. If not "Let it die"

About
Reveries is the first collaborative effort of Noveller & TQA, two critically acclaimed lonesome composers welcoming us is an expanded guitar-based journey. Noveller is the solo project of Brooklyn-based composer Sarah Lipstate while Thisquietarly is Eric Quach, unstoppable globetrotting musician from Montreal. Both use the guitar as their main instrument, creating some of the most impressive, hypnotic and rich-textured electric guitar works from the past years.

Empty architecture, luminosity, rocks and deserted zones. Somewhere between Antonioni's Zabriskie Point and Tarkovski's Stalker, there is a walk, a wait and an epiphany. 
It happened. You were not there. You just read it. Or maybe it's the synopsis of it. It's written on the back cover of a corned paperback that girl with the golden cap lost in the train you were just in. She was on hurry. You'll never know its end, you just have to stick to the rocks and to the music. 
Tomorrow is another day and tonight might be the night.

Recorded in January 2013 at Electric Blue Studios in Brooklyn, this new long player finds Sarah & Eric at their most luminous and aerial state, writing together layers of blissful drones resulting of a highly meditative and emotional four-parts piece. 

Recorded and mastered by Brian Wenckebach.
Pressed on white vinyl in an edition of 500 copies worldwide.

Continuum_I_II_www_Packshot.jpg

 

continuum is a collaboration between steven wilson and dirk serries. A multi-layered synonym for their collective ambition and vision, motivated by their immense passion for a wide-range of musical styles, ranging from spacious ambience to pounding doom metal. both albums - continuum 1 in 2005, and continuum 2 in 2007 - were released on cd only by the us record label soleilmoon, although tonefloat subsequently two double album sets with recyclings by vidnaobmana (tf027, 2006), and justin broadrick (tf051, 2010).

the two original albums are finally available on vinyl as a deluxe triple album set, with all three discs in separate picture sleeves, and housed in a custom printed pvc slipcase, complete with a 24x36 poster, all designed by carl glover. the set is a one-off and limited to 1000 copies in total, 400 on clear vinyl, and 600 on black vinyl. pre-orders are available from our tonefloat store. pre-orders will be out circa july 10.

No vinyl as yet, but the CDs / CDrs / tapes do sell mighty fast. Absolutely gorgeous guitar / field recordings / ambiance. Reckon it wont be long till someone presses his stuff on the format it deserves.

Mother Room - Scorched (Cassette Tape)

http://thenativesound.limitedrun.com/products/527879-mother-room-scorched

 

Samples:
Debt Collector https://soundcloud.com/the-native-sound/mother-room-debt-collector
Bull Shark https://soundcloud.com/the-native-sound/mother-room-bull-shark?in=the-native-sound/sets/mother-room-scorched

 

Hailing from Oakland, California, Mother Room is the brainchild of James Meuleners. Formed as a lo-fi bedroom project last October, Mother Room has since morphed into monster of a solo project whose debut LP, Scorched is a challenging set of experimental drone movements teeming with atmospheric and nomadic undercurrents.

In the vein of Dirty Beaches and Forest Swords, Scorched finds Meuleners fusing elements of drone and noise with gothic, and at times even pop intonations into swelling suites of disorienting distortion. Scorched was recorded almost entirely by Meuleners, and serves as his debut release as Mother Room.

Scorched is available on a limited edition cassette tape, and your choice of digital download formats. Cassette editions are pressed on red shells, and come packaged in a Five-Panel J Card, and black case.
