Echoes Of Freedom

Broken Spirits

Shibui is a simple, unobtrusive beauty that expresses original imperfection and intelligent restraint. The track titles are based on various polysemantic aspects of Japanese aesthetics and culture.

Miyabi – elegant, understated sophistication.

Raku – The art of hand-molding ceramics, which allows each piece to have its own unique, rough, uneven appearance and texture.

Wabi – unpretentious simplicity.

Mono No Aware – the sad charm of things.

Iki – an elegant, refined manifestation of beauty that combines seductiveness, composure, and modesty.

Nendouryoku – psychokinesis and telekinesis.

Sabi – archaism, genuineness, authenticity, peace of mind in loneliness.

Sumi-e – monochrome ink painting.

Sayonara is not just a farewell, it is a word spoken when someone no longer expects to meet. It is a farewell forever.

Ambient Cat Remixes, Vol. 1

Missing Space (KapTep Droned Remix)

In Suseti's new album, we listen to beautiful soundscapes produced with long drones and hypnotic sounds created with beautifully crafted pads and vocals.

In the first three tracks, we go from Ice Peak vocals to powerful pads that are more gently and calmly paced and can transport the listener into hypnotic meditative states.

In the other tracks, we descend from the peak into more moody and dark soundscapes but are still very calm and positive where we abandon ourselves into a trance-like state and lose the grip on reality for another 30 minutes.

Suseti (Sunset) project of new-age and ambient music created by Indian producer Sunil Sharma. He started his musical journey in 2010 and found inspiration and deep transformation in the beauty of nature and meditational practices.

Rafael Diogo about 'Where Shadows Sleep':

'Where Shadows Sleep' is a meditative sonic diary, born from my recent journeys across South America and the Middle East & North Africa. It weaves together the contrasts I witnessed — between cultures, faiths, and the presence and absence of the divine. It reflects on what humanity celebrates and laments, offering a space for both solace and reflection.

In the Amazon, the earth hummed in delicate whispers, lush and endless. I captured its heartbeat, learning to embrace medicinal plants, cradled in the quiet power of nature’s embrace. These sacred moments of peace stand in stark contrast to my time in the Middle East & North Africa, where desolation echoes and resilience blooms in the shadow of struggle. These two worlds became sonic prayers, woven mantras of hope-seeking balance in their wake.

Each track began as a field recording, a raw imprint of place and time. Slowly, these elemental sounds transformed, enriched by layers of tape loops, healing instruments, and synths. Together, they form a spiritual vessel — an album that soothes the soul, invites deep introspection, and gently awakens an awareness of the world’s fragility and strength.

Rafael Diogo, known as Deep Dive Sound, is a Portuguese field recordist and ambient composer based in London. He draws inspiration from the stories of diverse cultures, objects, and places, transforming them into soundscapes that resonate with immediacy and depth. His work captures a delicate nostalgia, reconnecting us to the sensory essence of time and memory.

Guided by a passion for travel, Rafael explores remote corners of the world, capturing field recordings that weave a rich tapestry of shifting memories. His compositions reflect a deep connection to ecology, illuminating the fragility of nature while embracing its wonder. Through his music, he creates intimate soundscapes that preserve fleeting moments and forgotten places, inviting listeners to rediscover what might otherwise fade into silence.

The third album released on Chitra by the unique Tokyo artist Yosuke Goto. Like a picturesque photo, each track tells a small story of important and unimportant things.

Most of the field recordings were made by pointing a microphone outside the window of a room, so in that sense, 'pictures' also means "landscapes cut out in a frame".

In this album, Adrian continues his exploration of tape-saturated sounds combined with piano and vintage synthesizers. The micro-cassette Dictaphone is used to create sounds evoking nostalgia and melancholy. Although using similar starting points to his last album on Chitra Records this album is darker in mood reflecting certain situations in the world today.

Desire Paths

The Sun Erases Wet Footprints

Throughout history, alchemists have captivated our minds with their quests to turn base materials into gold and seek the philosopher's stone. Their work was shrouded in metaphor and mystery, embodying a desire to understand the universe's hidden truths. Similarly, this collection of sounds endeavors to evoke the essence of that magical process. Each composition is a carefully crafted distillation of emotions, imagery, and ideas, resonating with the transformative powers attributed to the alchemical arts.

In Alchemies, Paul Beaudoin blends orchestral textures with glitch and noise elements, creating a sonic alchemy that mirrors the ancient quest for transformation. These contrasting sound worlds—organic and synthetic, refined and raw—come together in a seamless dialogue, embodying the fusion of disparate materials that the alchemists sought.

The album weaves through an auditory landscape, transporting you to the Fire of Calcination, where raw elements are purified, or the ethereal Black Sun, where shadows and light intertwine. As you listen, imagine the delicate Golden Transmutation—the alchemical transformation of sound and silence into rich tapestries of experience. Each track is an invitation to engage with the mysteries at the intersection of sound and spirit, reminiscent of the alchemist’s laboratory, filled with curiosity and wonder.

Join Ambient Cat on this journey as we explore the tenets of alchemy through sound, delving into the Salt of the Earth and emerging into the Albedo Phase, where clarity and illumination reign. Each piece is a gateway into an imaginative realm where transformation and transcendence occur—much like the alchemists sought, through their craft, to unlock the hidden potential of the universe.
