“I’ve been trying to distill a sense of unity between rhythm, movement and ambience in my music + djing, because i’ve been getting a bit stuck up on how those things are often separated. I’ve been trying to think of “ambient music” as a mode of active listening; a feeling of moving through the world and responding to its calls, systems and experiences, rather than sound for introspective or solitary consumption.”

Conscious Listening' is a podcast series by Pregnant Void record label that explores soundscapes born from the connection between deep ethereal music and the most advanced electronic musical experiments. 

This month's Podcast chapter comes from Roman Ćinske, cultural event creator based in Berlin and creative director of Aerial Palettes. The title of the mix is called 'Dawn Reveries' and the concept circles around finding the beauty in the repetition of morning rituals. It's an immersive depth and understated allure performance of patterns that occur so often they become automated enough to hold the listener rapt in a state of daydreamed reality.

After the madness of Monday, it's time to relax into the week, and there's no better way to chill out than with our latest Mix of the Day from Marconi Union.

The British trio - made up of Richard Talbot, Jamie Crossley and Duncan Meadows - are known for their forward-thinking productions, which combine elements of jazz and ambient electronica; which explains their strong links with Manchester art collective DOTCA.

Sandy beach of dawn, one person have seen the sight of dancing barefoot. And from behind you hopeful also, sad to one person. Dawn soon. The sun climbs in the same way today. Figure of a girl going over the sand. Figure dancing innocently. Sand step ...

Last Night The Moon Came -Jon Hassell

Preorder: https://never-late.bandcamp.com/album/clouds-are-the-better-birds

Forget the city's clamor, the endless to-do lists, and the weight of daily pressures. Close your eyes and imagine yourself lying in a sun-drenched meadow. Above you, clouds ever-so-gradually drift by, shape-shifting like melancholic ambient undercurrents. Tranquility is all that’s there. You are in a different place, a better place..

That's the feeling one gets listening to @mjulev's ‘Clouds Are The Better Birds’, a wonderful eight-track album by the Basel, Switzerland-based sound architect.

Mjulev's ambient playground unfolds like a dreamscape; each meticulously crafted layer weaves in and out organically, drawing you deeper into a world of introspection. As you listen, the stress and noise of daily life melt away, replaced by a profound sense of peace and connection. "Clouds Are the Better Birds" is an invitation to escape, reconnect with your inner self, and find solace in the simple beauty of the universe.

Set for release on April 12th via Never Late, Mjulev's latest offering is an essential companion for anyone seeking a haven from the world's noise.

"British ambient band Marconi Union has drummed up the world's most relaxing song: Weightless is 8 mins 10 sec. of aural bliss" - Time Magazine, Best Inventions of the Year. 

"An excellent compilation from the always interesting Just Music" - The Sunday Times

"The Ambient Zone is an album that feels like the world is peeling away, layer by layer, into multi-colored panoramas, just for you" - Echoes (CD of The Month)

The Ambient Zone is a beautiful journey into ambient and electronica inspired by universal themes of calmness, purity, relaxation and enrichment where Weightless is coupled with some exclusive first releases and other blissfully ambient tracks from Just Music artists and alumni.

Created instinctively and intuitively by Marconi Union, Weightless has been claimed to have therapeutic properties in the way the track almost appears to have a heartbeat running through it which slows down very gently throughout the piece, encouraging a deep sense of relaxation in the body, It's use of specific rhythms, beep bass tones, frequencies and intervals induce an almost trance like state in the listener.

"The Ambient Zone is an album that just screams (albeit quietly) of pure class" - Fluid Nation.

Ruhig - Materia Ep
Mastering by Ken Karter
Release Date: September 2016
Format: Vinyl + Digital (Bandcamp)
Materia Ep is the second installment of Ruhig's double Ep, inaugurated with Particles Ep in January 2016. Originally the records were supposed to be out in the same period, but due to problems with our ex-distribution, Materia Ep got postponed of few months. The release starts with the transcendent Trento, respecting Ruhig's tradition of broken beats IDM deep techno leaning openers. Consecutive cut The Vector is a thumping mixtures of drones and heavyweight hihats designed with some attention for dancefloor. The slow-burner Materia delivers some powerful mist-shrouded kicks on the B-side, that wraps up with Sciame, a massive droning wave of electro wasps, which still keeps some classy chilled out elements somewhere in the background, behind the thunderous main drums. Vinyl unfortunately left no space for the extra only digital track 1870, this last one is percussive retro-futuristic jam of psychedelic mouth arp and huge mallets drums. The track will be available for free download in the same period of the vinyl.

B1. Postcards From Gortupal

In an era of boundless self promotion, anonymity is a rare and precious thing. Listening to Trevor Jackson's NTS show one night we heard a glorious piece of music by something called Elite Beat. A quick search found 10 years worth of recorded material but not a single photo or youtube clip. They had made a record with Niger born guitarist Mdou Moctar but were based in Portland, Oregon. More questions than answers but we knew we had just heard one helluva cosmic link up! 

We still don't know what they look like but we can tell you Elite Beat is a 6 piece ensemble now in their 12th year as a musical collective. Their sound is non prescribed rhythm music with an emphasis on live playing, free form expression and dubbing techniques. Players who have absorbed the plethora of global grooves from dub, Ethiopoques and Tuareg guitar music (probably the odd Dead bootleg too). They aren't retromaniacs or here to revive a genre. Just some cats from Oregon talking that universal language, fueled by laugher and a vision of the eternal.
