Stormby Normal(December 16, 2008) - Luscious dark ambient goodness, with a liberal dose of soundscaping and occasional tonality, this is an album for stormy winter nights. The first release by Normal in quite some time, we were blown away by the depth and power of his music, as well as his trademark attention to detail. Highly recommended. |

Urbanisationby Aairria(September 12, 2008) - We love it when we come across an artist we are unfamiliar with who creates stunning and inventive ambient music. Aairria is such an artist, and their new release on the superb Rain netlabel does not disappoint. We'd go so far as to call this album eloquent, refreshing, and downright brilliant. Best of all, it's free under Creative Commons, so grab your copy today. |

Milieu LPby Milieu(August 12, 2008) - We have long been fans of the ambient music of Milieu, but the artist's self-titled Milieu LP transcends even our high expectations. Put simply, this is a stunning example of sublime ambient music, composed using a bare minimum of instruments and tools. Unlike so much ambient where the sound design is the primary payload, the sheer musicality and freshness of this album leaves us wanting MORE. Highly recommended. |

Strange Skiesby M. Persson(July 14, 2008) - Every now and then we stumble across a new release by an unfamiliar artist that just blows us away. Such was the case with M. Persson's magnificent Strange Skies. It's been awhile since we've encountered an album of such simultaneous power and delicacy, and to discover it out of the blue is a real treat. We think this album is a gem, and encourage our listeners to check it out today. |

All Points Northby Manitou(June 15, 2008) - One of the most haunting ambient albums we've encountered, Manitou's All Points North is a textbook example of dark, textural ambient that is very approachable and enjoyable, even upon first listen. This is one of the deepest pure ambient albums we've encountered, and couldn't be happier to recommend it to our listeners. |

Hell's Canyonby John DuVal(May 13, 2008) - One of the quintessential abstract modular-synth epics of all time, John DuVal's Hell's Canyon is a dizzying and thoroughly satisfying journey through the depths of the abyss. If that weren't enough, it is performed by one of the all time masters of the genre. Not to be missed! |
 |
Heart of the Tundraby Deep Chill Network(April 16, 2008) - A truly classic ambient release that, despite its chilly subject matter, is a lush and comforting journey, replete with gusts of wind, murmurs, rumbles, and tons of icy Deep Chill Network goodness. Don't miss this album folks, it's a gem. |

Sounds from beyond the Silver WheelBy Dark Muse(February 05, 2008) - Hauntingly beautiful vocals mixed with otherworldly ambience is what Dark Muse is all about. Melancholy and yet hopeful, this beautiful album is the kind of music to listen by candlelight on a dark and stormy night. |
