Merix - It's Dark Outside

We are delighted to announce our forthcoming musical adventure with a mate who, like us, enjoys connecting tea with electronic music.

Based in the south of England, Scape One (Kurt Baggaley) is often recognised for his futuristic electro and experimental idm styles. He also uses the pseudonym Tau Sagittarii for his ambient space music made for armchair astronauts. Plenty of tea was used in the making of this music so here is a carefully crafted selection for you to enjoy with your favourite cuppa.

To enhance your listening experience, we recommend accompanying the mix with GABA teas, allowing you to connect with the music on a deeper, clearer level of awareness.

Chitra Podcast #18 Noise Ambient Mix by KapTep

https://shimmeringmoodsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/spaces-between-words

In a world where every word carries weight, UK based electronic producer Simon Vince (HERE) invites listeners into a sonorous exploration of the unnoticed silences and spaces. With his latest ambient album and second release on Shimmering Moods ; Spaces Between Words. HERE crafts eight beautifully fragile and melancholic electronica tracks that delve into the delicate nuances of love and loss. 
Each piece is a hauntingly wistful soundscape, woven from electro-acoustic ambience and drones to shimmering synths, delicate textures, and gentle pulses that evoke the bittersweet essence of separation. 

From the emotive echoing tones in “Spaces Between Words” to the nostalgic reverberations and drawn out chords of “I Find You In Whispers" this album invites you to embrace the unspoken and the unshared, allowing you to linger in the quiet spaces that define our connections.

HERE - Spaces Between Words

This is a recording of what we believe is a culverted stream below Fallenbrunnen in Friedrichshafen. We noticed this almost as soon as we arrived there, the night before we played at VOD-Festival (19 July 2025), right across the street from Kulturhaus Caserne, the festival venue. The recording was incorporated into the live show, a hidden sound from somewhere almost beneath our feet as we played.

If you know more about the history of this, particularly the name of the stream if it has one, let us know.

Ethereal Projector #2 Oceanology

Ethereal Projector #2 Oceanology by Dionisaf | Immersive Ocean Ambient Mix

After decades of chasing, accumulating, and then sharing new music with you, I think I've hit some saturation point. I think I'm done spinning in the vortex of the "new", being pulled in all directions, catching up on all the "fresh" and "innovative" tracks. I'm not saying that I will stop covering new music. No. But I think I'll focus the virtual lens of my listening on a very narrow point, investing my time and attention over more extended periods. I think I will turn inwards... towards music and the artists that genuinely make me feel. This is the case with Rafael Anton Irisarri's A Fragile Geography, an album from 2015, which captured my attention then as it does now, triggering memories, triggering thoughts, and emotion. A decade ago, during a move between coasts, Rafael lost his possessions - stolen with the moving truck - along with all his audio archives, forcing him to rebuild his studio and sound from the ground up. The pain of this loss is reflected in almost every single track on the album. This music is slightly dark and melancholic. It's visceral, and it gets under your skin. And there it stays with you for ages. Becoming part of you, becoming part of your existence.

On September 19th, the album will be reissued, beautifully remastered by Stephan Mathieu at his Schwebung studio, along with a limited edition cassette of remixes by the most renowned artists, handpicked by Rafael. "This record has always been about letting go of one life and rebuilding another", says Irisarri, "It feels fitting to return to it now - ten years later, in a different country, a different world." These reworks are worthy of your precious awareness as well. I know that there are more than a few in the pipeline (at least six), which will be revealed one at a time. As of this writing, there is already a gorgeous rework by the one and only William Basinski, with his version of "Secretly Wishing For Rain" with Gary Thomas Wright, which incorporates field recordings of Reseda rain and birds captured by Basinski himself. You can check out a digital stream of that track here. *BUT!* Today, I am premiering for you a second rework by Abul Mogard! This piece bears not only the original elements of "Persistence" but, of course, Guido's extremely personal touch that breathes new life into this sound.

Head over to headphonecommute.com to read more about this release, including a quote from Abul Mogard on the rework.

Datassette - 7 Bass Guitars In 7-4 (Kessler V sludge edit) [MISCWX011]

There are a few collaborations that work really well. And, when something works well, why not double down? Two years ago [I almost said last November], Markus Guentner and Joachim Spieth came together for a full-length release on Spieth's own Affin imprint. This was more than just their initial conversation, which appeared on Kompakt's Pop Ambient's 2022 installment. Overlay was full of lush texture and ambience, which gently tickled the sensitive nerve endings in my ear canal, leaving my brain to decipher the signals into analgesic pleasantries. This year, the duo returns with a follow-up full-length release, delving deeper into atmospheric soundscapes, punctuating them with a dub-inspired heart-pounding beat. Fans of hypnotic, kaleidoscopic, and sonically rich environments will surely want to lose themselves in the caverns of this all-encompassing sound. If you are a fan [as much as I am] of their solo works, you will find that here, together, the multiplier is higher. They're truly at the top of their art here, so let's put on a heavy ADS for a fully submersible voyage. A subwoofer is recommended. 

TRACK PREMIERE : Guentner + Spieth - Chrysalis
