Osmose - If The Sky

State Azure - Passing City Lights (Loodma Recordings)

Taken from Oxycanta III (Reservation) compilation.

A new chapter in the Oxycanta series of compilations by French Dj and arranger Mahiane featuring tracks by artists who are emerging at the forefront of the ambient scene as well as pathfinders in the genre.   
Throughout Oxycanta III the sound spectrum reaches wide arrays of deep bass all the way to the high-pitched resonances to display many of the DJ’s musical influences while, with a keen sense of float, she blends IDM, downtempo and neo-classical with a hint of atmospheric electronica, and a dash of dub. 
Driven by her passion for music and nature, Mahiane titled her collection Oxycanta as a tribute to Crataegus Oxyacantha, a species of Northern European Hawthorn dear to old time herbalists.
Mind-bending story; an invitation to slow the pace and wonder…     

Audio mastering & artwork design by Vincent Villuis | Ultimae Studio

02 Jani R - Under The Radar (Original Mix)
03 Jani R - Second Chance (Original Mix)
04 Jani R - Collision Course (Original Mix)
05 Jani R - Collision Course (Spin-off)
06 Jani R - Under The Radar (Spin-off)

Finnish producer Jani R is a brand new addition to the Silk Sofa roster. Also known for his techno project that has been around since 2002, Incolumis (of JOOF Recordings fame), Jani blesses us with "Collision", a unique collection of six brilliant downtempo and chillout cuts.

"All The Beauty" contains an outstanding and hypnotizing soundscape, spiced with a vast array of lush synth elements and smooth percussion grooves. A beautifully crafted string ensemble introduces "Under The Radar", and throughout the track a number of delicious sound effects emerge for extra texture. "Second Chance" quickly establishes a truly mesmerizing atmosphere with a haunting percussion line, and the surrounding melody layers keep inspiring the listener. The fourth song on this release is "Collision Course", in which countless texture layers spice up the atmosphere, while soothing melodies and stabs lurk in the background. Finalizing this downtempo collection from Jani R are two "Spin-off"'s of "Collision Course" and "Under The Radar", acting as the perfect 'double' outro.

Little Yogi - The Master Beta (Psybaba Rework)

‘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.

Nate Connelly - You Echo (Asa Remix) [OUT NOW]

Couple of months ago I went to a fund raiser for Benjamin Curtis and his battle with cancer. I ended up meeting Alley, the singer of the band. It was an amazing, touching, and moving experience, especially since she already knew who I was at that point. 

That whole night touched me so much, that I ended up writing a song with Ben, and his terrible struggle, in my mind. This was my tribute to School Of Seven Bells. 

Rather than holding off until my album is finished and released to the public, I want you all to hear this now. It saddens me deeply that Ben lost his fight and passed away. He was a great inspiration to me.

The epic Uth - Momenta  -  Opening track from my new compilation featured on Va_-_Goa beach vol.22 

Enjoy !!! 

Uth - Momenta

December is from the album Tide available for pre-order from Butterfly Collectors:

http://www.butterfly-collectors.com/tide

December is written and lead by multi-instrumentalist, Jeff Smith. Thus, it marks a stylistic departure from the band’s orchestral origins, featuring a minimalistic overture that eases into a delicate piano riff in the minor key. 

Layered with ethereal female harmonies including singer/songwriter Milly Hirst, Jeff’s unaffected vocals cut deep into the marrow, sublime in their simplicity. December ascends through the angular drums of latest band member, Alex Mackenzie - whose trip-hop beat accents the trumpet / violin contrapuntal melodies into a maudlin, macabre Mariachi march.


WOODEN ARMS - December

"Selecting the tracks for this mix, I tried to make it as coherent and versatile as possible. First of all, it was to showcase the broad spectrum of genres and styles, and second of all, to create a nice atmospheric mix in its own right."

Module Module & Halcyon - Come With Nothing [Free Download]

Producer of electronic, ambient and experimental music from the south coast of England.

__________________

Bio:

Immersed in the synth-pop and electronica of the Eighties growing up in southern England, State Azure (b. 1972) found early inspiration in Jean-Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, and Vangelis. Deconstructing their tracks ignited his passion, leading him to develop a foundational understanding of electronic music theory, composition and production entirely by ear and experimentation.

He honed his skills as a keyboardist and producer within live bands before venturing into solo ambient/experimental territory. This self-taught journey fostered a deeply improvisational and emotional approach, free from the confines of formal training.

State Azure's sonic world is further shaped by influences beyond music, drawing heavily from science fiction, cosmology, physics, and technology.

Seizing the opportunity presented by the burgeoning online music scene, he launched the State Azure project to connect directly with listeners, debuting with the album 'Outlines' in December 2011.


Thanks for listening and leaving your comments/feedback, it's very much appreciated and really helps to keep me motivated and pushing forward.
