can a noise dude recommend some AMBIENT

finally got around to kyle bobby dunn, thx lamp

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.

Here's a track off the new one, sounds fucking great tbh:

yagya - rigning

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

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

this loscil was good iirc

i like that one a lot too

celer's menggayakan also hitting the spot lately

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?

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

how is bvdub so consistently great

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.

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.

vangelis katsoulis - the sleeping beauties
i am the center: private issue new age music in america 1950-1990

bunch of ECM stuff maybe? not strictly speaking all keyboard-y i guess

yeah i really want to hear that i am the center album. will check out vangelis katsoulis, never heard that name. also listening to in gardens where we feel secure but its picnic at hanging rock and i want walkabout

world standard!

yeah ecm is a good call

i knew you would be the one to ask clouds!

is this too major key for what y're looking for?

:D

hailu mergia and his classical instrument

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXfeg_Wgll0

have listened to the last track on repeat more than once, it is perfect

no this is all awesome actually

you mentioned hassell but have you heard the aka/darbari/java album? i could seriously live in this soundworld

John Turman - Flux

sorry, that's Robert Turman

clouds otm re: aka/darbari... i wish there were hours and hours of that stuff!

aka/darbari/java rulez

loving this turman album atm, tx

sakamoto was my first thought. some iasos might scratch yr itch

mkwaju ensemble:

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:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cnGUT9n5iQ

ahh Surround 1 by hiroshi yoshimura is really really nice

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

yeah, didn't see any youtubes, but soundscape 1 is my favorite! it's the most mercuric dance-y

and I know the collage you're talking about, mainly stuff from the fairlights, mallets, and bamboo mixes:

which are also really nice...

Finis Africae - El Secreto de las 12

i was thinking of recommending finis africae, wasn't sure it fit the bill for this thread, but damn fine stuff nonetheless. there's a great reissue comp on japanese label EM that i think i mentioned on one of the balearic threads

really loving these particularly the first one!

cool!

and that aka/darbari/java clip is real nice. one of many hassell albums I still need to hear...

can a noise dude recommend some drone on the more 'chill' side of the spectrum e.g. stars of the lid or kyle bobby dunn, stuff similar to that
