Ambient Masterworks

‘Home’ is inspired by a walk on Kalathas beach during a December sunset. All the different elements reflect the harmony and openness but there’s a tree that has always stood out to me. It’s been there forever and we’ve established an unspoken understanding: we both find a purpose in solitude.

There was chaos and violence, a collision of dark matter and heat. 
In the maelstrom, a legacy was created and a new moon born. 
She left something here forever.
But amongst infinite black depths,
Theia rages on. 

Markus Guentner's new album, Theia, arrives November 9th on double transparent vinyl housed in a matte-laminated gatefold sleeve.

Campfire Stories 19 (Connections) by Chris SSG

~ About The Story ~

Everybody has a little bit of the sun and moon in them. Everybody has a little bit of man, woman, and animal in them. Darks and lights in them. Everyone is part of a connected cosmic system. Part earth and sea, wind and fire, with some salt and dust swimming in them. We have a universe within ourselves that mimics the universe outside. None of us are just black or white, or never wrong and always right. No one. No one exists without polarities. Everybody has good and bad forces working with them, against them, and within them.

"This mix was inspired by my friends, the people I am most closely connected to. I wanted to create something calm and beautiful, to offer some brief respite and escape. I might compile a tracklist at some point, but for now please just disconnect, zone out, and enjoy the mix. It was recorded in one take at home in Tokyo, October 2016. Thanks to Marc for the picture, Wata for the mastering, and to Jamie for inviting me to contribute." - @mnml-ssgs
