From his desolate arctic abode, a man once at home in the cities of our modern world has thrown his previous life away in search for the obscure splendor and natural desolation of his newly adopted homeland. Dan Quin has spent the last 10 years of his life mapping & mastering the animal & natural world of his promised land, the bottom of the earth, the South Pole, Antarctica, The End of the World---and apparently producing some of the newest in dark analog driven techno & house. Once a respected reporter for a prominent U.S. nature magazine, Quin went A.W.O.L. while on assignment documenting the mating habits of seals, only to reemerge as the founder of the 1st whale riding championship in history & the worlds only national liberation campaign for an unclaimed natural territory. An anti-social Steve Irwin with the heart of a lion and the cold skin of his beloved sea friends, his reputation among the few locals as a true hero & devoted follower of his adored native soil has earned him the title of duke of whales, and his presence, if not fest physically on the land due to his reclusive demeanor, is certainly felt spiritually as the saintly father of the region. Rumor has it that Quin was not seen for 6 months away from his arctic estate, apparently so entranced by the sea cries of his beloved seals that he was nearly lost in his own solitude, going on to record the beautiful cries that haunted him for so many nights. Determined to create what he called an artistic testament to the great Antarctic expanse, Quin employed the recordings on his 1st 12 release, the haunting and epic At The End of the World. We can only hope he continues to labor away in his igloo of inspiration, hearing further calls of primitive encouragement and continuing his crusade to bring the beautiful silence of the arctic to our warm & ready earlobes.

You're going to wonder what this has to do with ambient, but gis just got a million times better.

he's right

good tip on those mixes jaxon. i've had #2 on this morning. 4th result of gis for "cosmic" is ideal listening environment for these imo

been feeling these two a lot over the past couple of nights

what has everyone else been listening to lately?

i love the new bvdub:

seriously don't know much else that sounds like this guy... one of my favorites

https://files.me.com/mcutt/kq23jt

bvdub is rad.

the ambient club got me listening to the 'excursions in ambience' comps, and wow. also have been falling asleep to global communication for a few months now

been falling asleep to global communication for well over a decade :/

love those two susumu albums the most r1o, and above track and some other from boy and tree but the one after that seemed overdone - are more recent ones good?

been falling asleep to global communication for well over a decade :/

if you could recommend more in this vein i would really appreciate it. something about early 90s/saw2-style ambient has been hitting the spot recently, but it's not like i ever forgot that i liked that stuff. think i just stagnated in the twinkly leaf/type/kranky-side of ambient for a bit longer than i perhaps should have

^ second this; also recommend track-wise

warp 69 - natural high (global communication remix)

yeah, I foolishly bought one of those on limited vinyl release... but the trifecta cd set, oh yeah

man i had to try very very hard to restrain from buying the vinyls. i always regret buying ambient stuff on vinyl cuz you have to get up at some point to flip the record

I thought there was a skip, but it turns out permafrost has a click in one channel for a while. embarassing.

ha was just gonna post that!!!

it's pretty amazing.

i was listening to it at work. my boss walked by and said it sounded really pretty. told her to check out my world 2.0

baby baby baby nooooooo

another one

i tried making one w/ ben sidran about love, but the justin bieber one just works so well

so good. Hadn't heard PaulStretch before, it sounds great. long history of other timestretch pieces, Stockhausen, Carl Stone, Leif Inge but usually executed on classical sources, and with a demo like this done with shareware I think we're in for a cavalcade

kind of amazing how mundane the chord changes are in the original song

does a noise dude listen to CELER

yes i do

there's a new lawrence engrish album out called a colour for autumn

http://nightmonsters.com/uploads/posts/2009-03/1238252461_lawrence_english.jpg

it's been out for a bit! it is good.

I've been listening to these two releases by On:
http://www.discogs.com/On-Something-That-Has-Form-And-Something-That-Does-Not/master/263601
http://www.discogs.com/On-Your-Naked-Ghost-Comes-Back-At-Night/release/1865085

ok it must be the vinyl that just came out then. either way it sounds good

yrs ago I really wanted to like this sort of stuff because something about the aesthetic seemed really appealing but I think I lacked the attention span. now stuff from 12k and type and the like are just really appealing

Rutman's solo Steel Cello & metal ensemble records are amazing but usually a little more active / dissonant listening -- this is a collaboration with an electronic producer who doesn't synth or reverb out the acoustic steel sound, just kind of edits / tailors the most consonant moments into more of a nighttime listen

Mutant Sounds has two of Rutman's more intense / unedited steel cello albums -- I'm a big fan and I'm a little confused I hadn't heard about this one until now, it does have kind of a silly title

actually reading closer, it seems like this isn't as much edited as just the two of them playing his instruments -- it doesn't really sound edited, it's just more restrained / pretty than the other ones which are a little less afraid to wail

i like the steel cello record, but it isn't what id call relaxing

new jefre cantu-ledesma record is nuts
