Oh I really like it. I just don't understand how you can trash vangelis and post that, when they're just an updated version of what V was doing in the 70s.
sorry but that vangelis release still sounds very conservative to me so far. in the sense being more like a vaguely "spacey" facsimile orchestra or band than an environment rendering in sound. i mean he was obviously very important as a popularizer of electronic music, i mentioned in that thread that i get why people over, idk, 40 who are into electronic music have so much reverence for his stuff. but yeah, it's very much the idea of him personally as some kind of ahead of his time genius that bothers me.

Re-energised by television and indirectly reminded, pisses all over Lustmord. Ok 2 semi-borderline keepers with Goetia and Dark Star but beyond? Shrugs, Goetia is pure hocus pocus bollocks, why not name it “My Dear Percy” or something twee to shake things up mate



Frank Perry’s Deep Peace offers light over Index of Metals etc and Ariel Kalma could be construed as synth demos and glorified field recordings rolled into one. Oophoi transcended all. He was beyond words, maybe an entire vector of the very map itself

Moments of genius although no sound sorry. Check Eisteddfod 69 for full bass envelopment, The Dianaver, each piece has moments I can’t really articulate beyond fullness of tone, harmonics and proper reet good layering

Just want to share my favorite album for the last 2 years, William Selman's Musica Enterrada. This is not usually my thing; too organic, a bit too wishy washy synths, too "composed", but for some reason this just stuck. It also has a hint of 4th world aesthetics, which might be why I fell for it. Even more surprising that this it is done by a dude who did some quite forgettable minimal techno records in the early 00's.


In fact my ideologically self demands that ambient must in fact be quite boring/unengaging. Best stuff for me is probably early snd records (I don't care for the 'glitch' term). Music for airports is really the right description.

you could also distinguish between interior and exterior. have you done that? lots of landscape ambiet (on land being the most obvious) and also lots of airports (music for airports) car showrooms etc. and as a third category, digital space the 'inside' of our screens, and as a fourth, the inside of ourselves, our own interior experience; dreamstates, emotional states and physical states

then your cartography gets quite literal; the coast, the polar wastes, the desert, the rainforest, the moor, the forest and so on, with all the associations of climate (arid to humid, hot to cold, stormy to still, winds of various types, hard/soft) flora and fauna (inevitable bird chirrip, song of the loon) so on and so forth
open as a desert is, tangled and confined as a forest is
all this stuff is pretty obvious i guess, and as i say, more than often quite literal, thomas koner arctic etc

Well, I don't want to knock him off course but OTOH he's usually laughing at me whenever I bare my soul on here so it's tempting to stamp all over his nerdy little ambient cartography map and take a few finger joints with it if I'm lucky

No offence
