Hecker and Lopatin doesn't quite measure up to what I hoped it might be, but it's still a decent record.

His work has been described as "compositions that are patience incarnate" [4] and "encourage an emotional response even as its seemingly infinite, creeping swirl and hum threatens to numb. A difficult feat." [5]

New Mountains record out this coming week, hope it's better than the last one (which was still p good), cos the ones before that were fantastic.

fuzzed-out, all-encompassing ambient that fills the entire sound spectrum

loscil's coast/range/arc is fulfilling this need atm:

So there's this semi-obscure ambient/drone album that I used to love and I can't find it or remember who it was.
I think the whole album was only three long tracks or so and it sounded like a barge slowly scraping against an iceberg.
It was very sludgy, almost like Nadja but no drums and deeper and lo-fi(you could hear the thickness of the tape, not a lot of high end) and it felt like it was maybe an 80s cassette release?

Anybody with any idea? I think I might've read about it as a recommendation from Milton or another old school noize board dude.

N/m, found it!
Albumina Blues by Courtis. Get it if you don't got it.

reynols?

joe bogus (am0n), Saturday, 8 June 2013 00:48 (ten years ago) link

Yeah, it's Anla Courtis but just attributed to "Courtis". It's a 2001 release of some 90s recordings.

I totally recommend the Justin Walter album Lullabies & Nightmares that came out last month on Kranky. Nice soft and somewhat marshmallowy synths that chug along in a Cluster-ish sort of way, plus processed trumpet that makes me think of Jon Hassell. Great album all the way through.

eight months pass...
four months pass...

can somebody give me recs in a v new age music enthnography-via-keyboard-presets vein, like eno-hassell but much more minimal and canned. crystalvibrations blogspot has been out of business for quite a while now and i have minimal sources. woke up at four in the morning last night with selected ambient works vol ii playing on a loop and it was so unpleasant. namaste.

hiroshi yoshimura (particularly if you like mercuric dance):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpKL1hvTsUM

his first one is a little more solitary and sad than most of these but is not unlike some of that turman lp. worth checking out in any case:

ahh Surround 1 by hiroshi yoshimura is really really nice

brimstead, Wednesday, 16 July 2014 04:44 (nine years ago) link

soundscape 1: surround, rather. there was a cool collage on wh@t that had a bunch of japanese stuff like that and mkwaju ensemble
