Years after his last release, spending much time to recreate and improve his creative toolset, Cord is back with a new dose of beats.
His story began in the 2000s with taking part of the breakbeat scene, using his unique sound with granular effects, vocals and bass. Much later his interest was turned towards glitch influenced genres, resulting in an EP in 2005. Then he decided to improve his music process, to achieve a more colorful sound, resulting in the four tracks of Maktub.

Sati (Sanskrit: सती / satī) is derived from the name of the goddess Sati, it is a historical practice. The track utilizes a triplet driven base around a solid bass, fitting in a brooding and dark atmosphere, filled with twisted sounds and a speech describing daily mental practice.

Maktub contains more melodic contents, a fusion of different influences. Between sampled instrumental elements, arps and synth lines create a colorful balance to drive the listener to a cordial place somewhere in the middle east.

Songbeam is a collaboration with UK midtempo producer Tryptich. It combines melancholic atmospheres and textures with driving beats and bass to create an emotive, yet funky journey.

Rainfall transforms a beautifully sad Hungarian folk song into a seven minute long psychedelic glitch-trip. With the use of vocals from Éva Takács folk singer, the track’s ending with the unedited song elements is the perfect closing for the EP.

Maktub

Cord & Tryptich - Songbeam

An exploration of lush atmospherics and gentle emotive soundscapes, each track unfolds gracefully amidst interplaying melodies and expressive effects.

Four individual stories are told, woven in sound, subtly painting unique landscapes of texture and motion.

A passage is illuminated in the spaces between, its meaning unveiled as each sound plays its song.

Recently I had the honour & pleasure of being asked to create the music for the video linked below, my first time producing music for someone else's project. Whilst daunting at times, this was a truly inspiring project, forcing me out my comfort zone & creating for a deeper shared purpose. Very keen for more projects this!

Chronos - Meridianus (Ascent Remix)[exclusive on Bandcamp]

All links ► https://band.link/DIR_sky

The moving atmosphere of ambient is the trapes of emotions that are fulfilled through "Sky" by Dreams in Rooms. The 12-track album reels listeners into a pell-mell of auditory journeys that incorporate lush guitars and floating pads, which place the whole affair in a setting expansive yet strangely intimate.

From the first few notes, the listener can tell that Dreams in Rooms has paid an excruciatingly close attention to the minute details in making "Sky," and he has that innate sensibility which allows ambient music to stir the soul. While individually they are self-contained worlds, the compositions for the album are heavy and multi-layered to the point that they conjure an illusion of volume and complexity conducive to re-listenings. Each track is a world in its own right, carefully constructed, yet the album flows perfectly from one into each respective individual world in turn, making the whole into a truly immersive listening experience.
One of the major hallmark features across the album is its use of lush guitars. They do more than back up the song melodically, and often the guitars drift in and out of the texture much of the time affected with treatments that blur the line between organic and electronic sound. The guitars are used inventively and add a warmth and an organic quality that serves to ground the ethereal pads in a way that feels comforting, familiar. Another hallmark of the album is the floating pads, which lift the music into the realm of pure ambiance. A soundscape that listeners can become a part of, as the full, flowing harmony from high, clear, and pure to deep and resonant is a giant soundscape of which the listener is part. The pads are most typically evocative of the feeling of floating, with the listener suspended from the worries of the world down below and just drifting above it all.

There's a crossroad of emotion in "Sky," with the center of it almost sitting on a knife edge between sadness and positive feeling, between thinking in and expanding out. The album has a meditative quality, encouraging listeners to slow down and reflect, to find peace in the moment. It's music that could fit the stage for a quiet night under the stars; from the time the morning sunrise starts to come out quietly, to the soundtrack of a moment of isolation to seek consolation and clarity. Sonically, Dreams in Rooms brings out clear design and sound mixing. The sound of it is so clear and open; each element is allowed to shine - from the merest whisper of a synth pad to the rich harmonics of the guitars. The balance between electronic and organic elements is being handled just perfect—it does not seem like "Sky" is torn between the two.

As a result, "Sky" by Dreams in Rooms is an excellent ambient chillout full-length album which can create an aural sanctuary for a listener. The result is a blend of lush guitars and floating pads, offering something at the same time intimate and expansive, almost inviting one to discover one's own inner landscapes. It's an album where ambient power is seen taking the listener through many dimensions, a power through which one is able to channel infinite experiences and feelings, and something that should be listened to by connoisseurs, novices of the genre, and ambient music lovers in general.

Closer

Echo Divergence is the debut release from Jayms Joyce’s ambient project, unfolding like a landscape in slow motion. Midway through, a lone piano melody rises and scatters into branching echoes, drifting across the surrounding textures. Its title gestures toward sound radiating from a single source, capturing the piece’s sense of gentle expansion.

Space. Dark, cold and empty void between the stars. Despite all the space explorations, we still know nothing about it. What are quasars, actually? How can we travel to another galaxy?

Astronaut Ape is a guy in the orange space suit. He do ambient and chill-out gigs for last 5 years and got fans on every continent of planet Earth. Once he became an expert in proper mood flow at chill space of any size. Try what he has to offer on his 5th album!

Warm cosmic melodies topped up with radio transmissions, computer noises and slow pulsating rhythm. They teleport us right into the spaceship. Robots doing routine tasks, crew members are on their stations, all systems ready to hyperspace jump. One lonely spaceman looks into the window... Deep bass patterns, relaxing echoes and sci-fi sounds lift your emotions to the higher level. This music is inspirational and relaxing at the same time. Wonder what's next?

Experience the great music journey in space and time! Welcome to the "Unknown Sector"...

Mindspring Music Presents: Klaada - Antipodes Of The Self-Conscious Mind [MSM079]

Many researchers believe that altered states of consciousness are integral and very important part of human history - they are maybe even key to understanding the beginning of the Art itself, showing us first cave paintings through the prism of ecstatic shamanic trances.
But what are altered states of consciousness? Are they merely illusions of intoxicated mind or is there something more to it, something allowing us to visit some far more complex levels of reality than our own?

This album investigates that world on the other side of the mirror, the source of visionary inspiration for mystics, prophets, shamans and artists from all over the world and all over time.

Klaada - musician that plays in numerous bands, student at musical academy in Zagreb and psychedelic producer since the age of 16 is proud to present his second album in which he tried to create music that will bring together organic and ethnic sounds with powerful and twisted psychedelic FX that will take a listener on a journey through the world beyond the veil.
