Wil Bolton - Like Floating Leaves

Good morning, friends. I’m finally taking a little break and going away for a couple of weeks, reflecting on the last year [and all the gorgeous music, of course], but before I leave, I wanted to share with you this beautiful piece by ILUITEQ + Lorenzo Montanà who came together for a new collaborative album, KATÀ MÉTRON, scheduled to be released on the always forward pushing n5MD this March. The Greek expression “katà métron” means “according to the right measure”, which is all about balance, harmony and the right attitude towards everything around us. “More often than not, the dominant model is to go beyond our limits and have a “sense of measure” is not capitalistically profitable as we must nourish our constant desire to always wish for more, not caring for the consequences of such a “bulimic” attitude.” With this theme in mind, the group created a rich and textural ambient sound, underscored with rhythmic and percussive elements to drive the storyline forward, expanding outwards like a vaporous blanket of mist. There are ethos (and echoes) of the classic ambient passages traversed by Montanà, who is undoubtedly familiar with this sonic geography via his work on labels such as FAX with Pete Namlook (check out the Labyrinth series). Here, the Italian ambient duo of Sergio Calzoni and Andrea Bellucci, whom I profiled before as ILUITEQ, apply a modern electronic twist to what becomes a perfect fit for Mike Cadoo’s meticulously curated label. Check out this track, as well as the accompanying video (published on the site), which captures the movement.

We were pleased to release his EP "Recollected in Tranquility" last month, which you can discover here: https://dronarivm.bandcamp.com/album/recollected-in-tranquility (a few copies of the physical edition are still available). Sit back, relax, and enjoy the calmness of these sounds!

Avernus - Moros

Deep Ocean Creatures is an atmospheric immersive ambient album that takes listeners meditatively into the ocean's mysterious depths. Each track is inspired by fascinating deep-sea creatures such as jellyfish, octopus, and various fishes. The music beautifully captures the ethereal and otherworldly essence of these creatures, evoking a sense of wonder and tranquility.

First Listen: Benoît Pioulard - “Rook”

Porya Hatami | Aaron Martin | Roberto Attanasio ​ - 'Sallaw' 
Label; Dronarivm 
Cat #.: DR-58
Format: CD (ltd. 150)/ Wooden box special edition CD (ltd. 50)/ DL
Release date: March 1st, 2019

“Sallaw” is a Kurdish word that expresses the passing of time, and on this new album the three sound artists have found a way of expressing that notion in music. Four tracks of slowly unfolding ambience make up this collection, each piece named after different months, again in Kurdish. The four sections represent the different seasons and their movement through time.
