Music for Whales, an ambient radio transmission. The longest and most beautiful musical journey of the year. 

We have mixed, in an obscene set given its length, all the tracks that have been aired in 2024 on the radio show "Música para Ballenas", a programme where the best releases of the genre are highlighted and commented (in Spanish) on a monthly basis. Each of the tracks is a gateway to their full experience: their complete album. There are 130 tracks referring to as many albums. SoundCloud doesn't let us show so much text so the tracklist will be displayed in the comments or in a more visual way in this IG post: (under construction)

We recommend five different modes of listening: 

-Analytically, by intellectualising the mixes and looking at the musicians who create the music. As the playback progresses, you will see in the comments the track id and a link to bandcamp where you can find the complete album and support the artist if you consider it appropriate. They are mixed in chronological order of release so you can look back over the months that have completed this 2024.

-As a soundtrack to your routines, meetings and conversations. . Press play and leave it on in the background for a meeting with your people, at work, or on a trip. Let the best tracks of the year comb your routine in the background. It is music that does not interfere in an explicit way in the environment, but in a latently modulating way; it inspires to bring out the best prose of the conversationalists and the best walk of the walkers. 

-By looking at the track list you can go directly to the artist that catches your attention, listen to their track and expand your enjoyment by going to their full album.

-Press play in shuffle mode anywhere in the set and let yourself go for about 50-60 minutes, just like a normal session. Promised that you will love the mixes and the plot that forms the succession of tracks. 

-Don't listen to it. Just go to the comments and go straight to the LPs, there's some great music coming out this year, every year is better than the last.

Music for Whales - The longest and most beautiful musical journey of the year

We are delighted to begin the year with a mix from ASIP (Ryan Griffin), the founder of A Strangely Isolated Place - a label and mix series that has become a cornerstone for contemporary ambient music. Inviting him felt long overdue, and we couldn’t be happier to share this contribution from someone whose work continually inspires us. For this mix, Ryan delved into musical memories, crafting a journey filled with nostalgia and influences. As he beautifully puts it:

"Thank you, Mareen, for the invite to your series. This mix is full of nostalgia, some Balearic undertones, and classic approaches to ambient electronic music, without an agenda. It starts to speak to some major influences on me over the years. Growing up on 90's electronic music, influential summers in Europe, and the formative years of early 00's IDM and electronica. If Unrush is self-described as 'a serene space within the mind that is free from the encumbering stresses of daily life,' then this is music that always helps me get there."

Ryan’s contribution is a heartfelt journey through time, marked by the sounds that have shaped him and continue to inspire, perfectly embodying the unrushed ethos. Let yourself drift and enjoy... ❤️

Deep Breakfast 306 ~ Gabbor b2b KEUT @ Kwia

We’re in the hands of Tonight’s Dream Records honcho Light of Cacti for Chrysalism 008. Despite initial designs to plan out this mix to represent the journey of the storm, Light of Cacti was spontaneously inspired by a rainy day - resulting in an authenticity that resonates throughout his selection, and profoundly embodies this series. 

From the first crackle of vinyl we’re taken into a brooding and melancholic soundscape, journeying from deep and dreamy ambient, into worldbuilding textures and drum patterns.

There’s something profoundly healing in the music of French duo Javier Salazar, whose output embodies the true medicinal power of sound. 

This mix takes our mind’s eye into the sunshine - grass between our toes, spliff in hand - as we get intimate with the scoops, wrapped in a warm, enveloping blanket of sound.

We hope this beautiful contribution brings you an hour of peace, just as it has for us many times over the past month. Thanks, Leo & Simon <3

September 2020 marked Sova Audio’s 4th birthday. While we might not have been able to celebrate with the rowdy ensemble of friends and family we might have hoped for, it did give us an excuse to lure someone rather special down to Studio Sova: international club hero, general good vibe curator, and close personal friend, Jane Fitz.

STUDIO SOVA #12 :: JANE FITZ :: PART ONE

Experimental soundscapes and live performances draw from a wide array of disciplines, from ambient, traditional and world, to early electronic, live avant-garde and contemporary.

Subtle yet expansive, introspective yet universal, we create a space with the support of likeminded people, to both collectively and individually explore the depth and richness of infinite existence.
