Released on December 5, 2017 as an infinitely looping minisite and limited edition cassette.

"The latest installment in an ongoing mix series, Absent Friends Vol. 2 presents Minor Science’s take on ambient: a hyper-dense, micro-edited collage form incorporating music, sound and speech. Progressing by a series of lulls and wild crescendos, its structure mimics the volatile behaviours of weather systems; over time, an oblique but powerful emotional narrative emerges."

“We may be stranded in the rain, sometimes…”

Cotton Mouth - Jökulhlaup

A sonic journey shaped by hope, ceremony, and emotional honesty.

Hailing from Vesterbro, Copenhagen, @franarchy is franarchism — a radical take on modern emotional response. As the co-CEO of REAL LIVE, a platform devoted to music and epic live experiences, Franarchy is deeply rooted in various spheres of copenhagen.

A tale which unfolds like a ritual — intimate, grounded, and transcendental.

Poor Man Speech

Another chapter in my ongoing series of studio ambient mixes (not recorded live, produced over at least a month). This one is extra special for me as the title alludes to the fact that 2021 means I have been working in sound design for a decade. To help celebrate, I designed this new psychedelic journey, and layered it with field recordings from my collection of SFX I have captured going all the way back to my first upload folder from summer 2011. 

The track selection plays out like an anthology of some of the most talented ambient/sound design producers, blending eras and approaches ranging from pillars such as Biosphere, Stars of the Lid, and William Basinski - alongside emerging producers like Green-House and Zeze Wakamatsu. Molding everything together is a constantly shifting foundation of found sounds. The listener begins literally floating downstream as one subtle aquatic effect dissolves into another for the opening fifteen minutes. I also included many of my favorite audio finds including air traffic controllers, vintage game shows, NASA communications, nature documentaries, and religious A.M. radio hosts to list a few.

As a special bonus and thank you: I am pledging a $5 donation for every 350 plays of this mix* to Coalition for the Homeless (based in NYC)(*for the first 10,000 plays).
UPDATE: As of 08.26 $107 has been donated to cover the first 7,500 plays
