The third and final single from Dear Gravity's upcoming Godspeed album, To Lay Down Everything You've Built truly encompasses both the emotional depth and the layered musical complexity of the album. Adding post-rock and electronic influences to the ambient style Dear Gravity has come to be known for, Godspeed is DG's most complex and ambitious release to date.

To Lay Down Everything You've Built

Blurring the lines of ambient, neo-classical, and cinematic sounds, this new single from ambient stalwarts Dear Gravity & We Dream of Eden is inspired by the concept of passing life down to the next generation, while pondering questions of what world and what truths we are imparting. It was a deeply personal, emotive, and moving experience for the artists to collaborate on and create, and it is the lead single from the duo's Holocene EP.

Ambient artists We Dream of Eden (Kirk Smith) and Dear Gravity (Mike Graff) met in 2019 through the Hong Kong based record label Echoes Blue Music (Salt of the Sound, Narrow Skies, Antarctic Wastelands), when Smith created a remix for one of Dear Gravity's tracks. Both were so pleased with the process and the outcome that they started talking about the idea of co-writing. "The process was quite simple," says Smith, "we would each send song snippets and sketches to each other over the internet and Mike would add his flavour to my ideas and I would add my flavours to his. Mike’s sound design with guitars and pads made it easy for me to write to with pianos and vocal textures. We were both very open handed with the compositions and I think that helped to create a really tender and beautiful project."

Both artists have independently been featured in a variety of official Spotify playlists (including Stress Relief, Lava Lamp and Mind & Body), and have received praise from critics and listeners alike.

Smith concludes, "we tried to stay in that 'Riven' tension and I believe when you create through that place, beautiful things come out of it."

On Earth is the first single from Deeper Still, the new album from ambient artist We Dream of Eden.

+ https://echoes.blue/on-earth

The music of We Dream of Eden has been described as "a place to think, a place to breathe, a place to dream" (Rural Sounds) and featured on a wide variety of Spotify editorial playlists, including Stress Relief and Lava Lamp. Speaking about the inspiration behind this new release, Smith explains that he "wanted to capture the wonder of finding beauty in the ordinary patterns that seem to come together by accident; the shapes of trees, the never ending shades of green, the way rain falls, the way watercolors run and fade."

Produced in a stunning lowercase ambient style, Deeper Still is a meditation on the mystery of everyday beauty, a pathway to inner stillness, to sacred spaces that we never knew existed.

The full Deeper Still album will be released on 9th April 2021.

Debut album, Among The Oaks: https://smarturl.it/BlurstemAmongTheOaks

Minneapolis composer Chris Bartels has been writing ambient music under the name Elskavon for a decade, and Blurstem was born as a piano-centric offshoot of the project. 

He and his wife were gifted an old spinet piano when they bought a house in 2015. Always slightly out of tune, a little dusty sounding, and very much imperfect, the instrument has its own character. But it wasn’t until Chris cut up an old sweater and taped it to the strings, so as to avoid waking up their children at night, that his love for that character really took form.
