Description: it's finally out for pay-what-you-want download! Description, taken from the Bandcamp page: From September to December 2011, EUS (Costa Rica), Postdrome (UK) & Saåad (France) came together to explore their shared visions of drone and ambient music. The result is Sustained Layers, a 44 min introspective work formed by carefully assembled layers of drones, field recordings and blurred melodies. This collaboration was made possible by the constant experimentation and improvisation that took place throughout recordings, and distance becomes a key part of the record as the time zones separating the artists shaped the progression of the album entirely.

 Hidden Vibes Artists: Performance Overview

Meanwhile, all the musicians, whose albums were previously posted on Hidden Vibes continue their artistic life and please us with new releases. Here's the brief overwiew of what's new happening, just in case you missed it.

1) The Landwash of Eternal Tranquillity - Glaring Thoughts. The most recent release, the date is 16 May, 2012. Great collection of mellow piano tunes with atmospheric layers. Do not miss this, if you liked the previous release, The Swallow Fly. Links: Last.fm | Download


2) EUS, Postdrome & Saåad - Sustained Layers. This album is soon to come, the release date is 28 May, 2012. A collaboration between three great sound experimentalists is very promissing ind intriguing. By now you may check a couple of tracks on a Bandcamp page and pre-order a physical copy!

3) Fog Lake - there's a spirit, there's a soul. You gotta remember Fog Lake for a great ambient album and participation in Hidden Vibes Vol. 4. It is followed by quite a different album, where the direction was changed closer to dream pop.Good record, anyways. Links: Last.fm | Download

Like A Villain​ & The Early - Split

Like A Villain​ & The Early - Split


Genre: Avant-Garde
Format: mp3 | CBR320kbps
Country: USA
Size: 88 Mb

Tracklist:
01. Like A Villain - Mystics Vs. Skesis Conjunction of the Three Suns Revival
02. Like A Villain- I Love You Pikachu  
03. Like A Villain - For Reasons Still Unknown 
04. The Early - Nome 
05. The Early - John Brown  

Description: You might have already heard of Like a Villain, if you like musical explorations through last.fm. This is a project of Holland Andrews from Portland, Oregon, creating "ethereal melodies of melancholy and strangeness". Her music is an experimental mix of instrumental melodies and singing, sometimes hypnotic, sometimes very emotional, and at the same time quite innovative. Call it avant-garde or post-whatever, or just enjoy the tracks. Having previously released two albums, Like a Villain now decided to collaborate with another project from Portland, The Early, for a split album, released by Friends For Life Records. The Early is a full-band of two guitarists and a drummer producing experimental semi-improvisational (or even fully improvisational) instrumental madness. I would call it post-rock, and hopefully this doesn't create the clichéd image of this genre in your head. Anyways, both parts of the split are united by the main idea of experiments in music, and surprisingly this is a very good, enjoyable record, that makes you want to re-listen it over again.

Country: United Kingdom
Size: 90 Mb

10. Isaac's Dream of Tired Streets

Description: couldn't help posting this album, because it is so very special! Emphemetry is Richard ‘Biff’ Birkin, born in Derby in 1982. This album is a carefully arranged blend of genres, impossible to be described in one word. You can hear ambient passages, piano instrumentals, calm acoustic singer-songwriter material. The new album from Emphemetry features ambient swells of guitars, intimate folk songs, a string quartet, strange sounds, tape delay, reverse loops, pianos, and a haunted acappella quintet. 
"Variations of Ambience" could be another title to this great record. Another intriguing fact is that this album was mixed (plus additional production) by Nils Frahm at Durton Studio, Berlin. Are you still thinking?
