DOWNLOAD: Herzog – Waking Up Is Hard To Do EP
Since first hearing Herzog’s work years ago on the German netlabel 12rec together with his releases on Welsh ambient label Serein I’ve been quite taken with the deep, wonderfully lush soundscapes that Herzog’s Bill Bawden composes. There’s exists a beautiful melancholy throughout his work of which this collection is just as guilty.
DOWNLOAD: Alphaxone – Portal [Petcord]
Alphaxone is an Iranian project that focus on dark ambient sounds with careful arrangements and distinct dynamics.
RECOMMENDED: Rykard – Hell Bent [dedpop]
From my first listen I knew I was going to keep coming back to Rykard‘s LP: Hell Bent. I’m fully enraptured by the 8 tracks covering 31 minutes that make up the 25th release for Derby based netlabel dedpop.
DOWNLOAD: The Inventors of Aircraft – Koeln
We’ve not heard any new material from Phil Tomsett aka The Inventors of Aircraft for a little while, indeed it was back in February we last heard from him. Not content with just producing a wonderful mix (Listening Rituals) for the once netlabel turned proper imprint Serein and their Forecast series, he’s self-released the mix [...]
DOWNLOAD: Cachexy – Tacet Sed Loquitur [Enough Records]
With so much music flying around cyberspace you need to sometimes look beyond the new releases and go back a bit. 2006 perhaps. 2006 when the Ukrainian artist Cachexy released his 6 track album Taced Sed Loquitor on popular-round-these-parts netlabel Enough Records.
DOWNLOAD: Blind Summit – The Shadow of Locomotive 1
Here’s a quite tasty little post highlighting you to a track the UK producer Blind Summit has decided to share with you all. The Shadow of Locomotive 1 is a deep dark and whilst industrially finished is very smooth and has a certain ambience about it that I quite relish. Anyways, you can grab the [...]

DOWNLOAD: Scanner – Floral Derrangement
The 2nd of 2 Scanner posts in as many weeks (the first can be found here). Some might say we like him, others might say we’ve taken to checking his Soundcloud page a bit more regularly. Whatever’s said, what’s important is that Floral Derrangement, a 19 minute piece that he’s sharing with us, is delicately [...]
RECOMMENDED: Josco – 0611 [Somehow Recordings]
The work of one Gerry McDermont, Josco is a musician based in Thailand. Offering up his first EP for Somehow Recordings (their 19th), 0611 is a 3 track collection built with almost pure sounding beat-less waves of shimmering drone. Thou relatively short for ambient music (the longest of the 3 is but 4 minutes and [...]
DOWNLOAD: Dead TV Society – Noxgenus 08
I’ll be the first to admit I know very little about Dead TV Society, what I do know is that they produce deep, frequently dark mostly beatless soundscapes. And as it stands, that’s enough for me. No collective title for these 8 tracks other than the catalogue number, fittingly Noxgenus 08. Released back in late [...]
