Ambient mixes selected

‘The Hidden Reality’ is my new ambient-oriented mix series.

A couple of years ago I read the book written by a US physicist Brian Greene which has the same title. This book describes a number of physics’ theories, which assume that our Universe is not the only one existing. These theories have a lot of evidences that there are a plenty of other universes and each theory has its own approach to this question.

I was impressed as never been before while reading to this book. I can compare it only with an impression I’ve got when listening to the most inspiring ambient music, which I intend to use in this series.

I will make each next part quite rare, I think something like once a year or maybe a bit more often. Maybe even with some guest mixes in the future.

So, this is the first part of this series.
Hope you enjoy it, guys.

Hiroshi Watanabe has been releasing records since 1996, with styles ranging from deep house to his more recognized ambient/electronica works on Kompakt under the guise of Kaito. A stalwart for the label for the past twelve years, Hiroshi has clocked up no less than eight albums and recently released the rather brilliant ‘Less Time Until The End’.

His passion for introspective electronic music is clearly visible in his latest release and his Kaito moniker is seemingly dedicated to this emotional side. Named after his son and translating as “the one that is able to explain the universe”, Kaito’s music is warm, analogue and immersive electronica, riddled with a million stories. Hiroshi’s a big believer in communicating through his music and opens up to the many ways a track can be perceived- he’s a storyteller, a painter of the night sky and the magician behind the soundtrack which accompanies them.

Hiroshi’s isolatedmix stems from this approach and takes us on a night-flight through some of his inspirations that span the spectrum of the ambient electronic genre – a perfect introduction to the newbie or an expertly curated accompaniment for the veteran. Hiroshi will be the guide, but you’ll make your own way there…

“I started with this kind of electronic music, mainly because my father created some very imaginative ambient music when I was child (around the late 70s). I was watching how he made the music and the sound seemed so impressive. It was because of this I fell in love with electronic music.

I love how the music can portray special images within each person – no-one the same, it’s impossible. There’s no need for vocals, or lyrics or words, just sound. I can close my eyes and it’s all I need – every person connecting to the universe through tension, energy and inspiration.

This is a selection of music which reflects that feeling – something special. Of course, there are tonnes to choose from and some amazing ambient music in the world, but this is just a little selection. Please enjoy the music and use your imagination to travel your own way”

Biosphere live in Iceland

Not quite a mixtape or an album, "Dark Shadows in the Periphery" represents a completely new method for the presentation of my field recordings. While the piece is designed to flow smoothly throughout its 30 minute runtime, there are actually ten separate soundscapes on display, crossfaded and layered into one psychedelic cocoon of sound. 

There are a variety of recordings and recording styles used in this project, most notably the contrast of man-made vs. natural sound sources and the duality of living in urban and rural areas (Detroit vs Romeo, MI) While the ten pieces were originally conceived to be released on their own, I enjoyed the challenge of molding them into one cohesive statement. With pure sound-based listening it often seems difficult to hold the audience's deep attention for very long, leaving most of this work to remain stuck as "background" material. I tried to avoid this trend by constantly integrating new sounds, including some surprising everyday sources we tend to take for granted (supermarket check-out barcode readers, mosquitos buzzing in your ear, etc..), as well as through the maintaining of each recording in hi-fi 96 k / 24 bit audio (the fly that buzzed into the left channel mic will probably get your attention, as will the train passing by caught on the Crown SASS mic). Headphones recommended. 

"Dark Shadows in the Periphery"
00:00 - 04:20  new untitled piano composition (sewer water rushing, shoes on gravel road, ATC vocals, cars passing, AM radio preachers & more)

04:21 - 10:00 new untitled soundscape (thunder, family chatting at thanksgiving, new piano, cicadas, wind in the trees, crickets, beer making equipment, high pitched steam room)

08:30-16:00 Urban Ambiance (all recorded in downtown Detroit: arrival of train with bells, skateboarders downtown with construction noise, bus passes, bikes, m80 detonates while ppl walk to fireworks, voices, mexicantown ice cream shop, train passing in stereo, campus martius fountains, people mover, family talking, helicopter approaching belle isle)

14:10-16:40 Stereo Mic Test II: Throwing Pebbles into water at Belle Isle

15:45-18:20 Churchbells in Romeo Backyard

18:00-21:40 Churchbells pt II (My brother raking leaves with our niece and nephew, new piano composition, AM preacher interviewing child) 

20:30-24:45 Koy Pond (mixture of several recordings of frogs, crickets and the ambiance beside a koy pond in Detroit.)

24:30-28:30 Chilly Lake Erie Night (several stereo recordings of waves at Belle Isle mixed with an AM radio news report of a boating accident and other aquatic sounds).

28:00-30:30  Adhan recording from Hamtramck MI (Isha Islamic Call to Prayer with street ambiance).

30:00-31:40 Supermarket Checkout (barcode readers, shopping carts and crying baby pass)

31:40-33:20 Rain, birds, and science.

All recordings and editing by R.J. Stefanski, 2014-2015 on a Tascam DR-07 handheld field recorder with some additional stereo recordings with Crown SASS stereo mic.
