Description: Just got a request of posting Subterrestrial latest album. Not exactly my cup of tea, but you may check the description by artist and give it a try. Have a nice exploration!

"Echotron" is a unique mix of deep ambient soundscapes and retro lounge/exotica tracks featuring analog synths and drum machines. The tracks are arranged like an LP with the ambient material on "Side A" while "Side B" features the more beat-oriented tracks. Depending on your musical interests you're bound to enjoy at least one side of this "virtual LP," maybe both?

Lights Dim - Starlit Corners of Our Homes

Country: Poland
Label: Preserved Sound

Tracklist:

10. Cold Room

11. Peter Falk

12. Belated Light

Description: after visiting a show of this artist I couldn't help dropping a few words about his music, because it is very expressive, yet minimalistic, as most of ambient is. So, Lights Dim is a solo project of Marek Kamiński (also New Century Classics). Starlit Corners of Our Homes is an album, that has been recorded and mixed in jan/feb 2010 and contains ambient-based compositions with involvement of piano. Probably nothing new to modern classical genre, but this record is not about inventing new things, it is about expressing authors feelings in a very warm, romantic and melancholic way.

Size: 124 Mb

06. Creation VI - Chorophobia

07. Creation VI - Hour Of Shortened Shadows

08. Creation VI - Sands

09. Creation VI - Listopad

Description: Days flow like a brook waters glittering in the sunlight. Dreams and remembrances get mixed with each other. Morning looks like evening, and night invites to forests where sacral dance of the Nature takes place away from street lamps and strangers' eyes. Getting warmed with sunlight, we come to a new era. Here sand and stones lay beneath fallen conifers' needles. Roots attract lightning bugs when trees lose their leaves and prepare to complete the main life cycle while their bare branches spreads under moonlight, rain and cold winds. Distant thunder sounds like its own echo playing a melody by feathers of ruffled owls. Lightnings turn to stares of angels coming down to Earth as whole World is quivering, pulsating and singing his everlasting song.
This split unites two works which are similar in discovering something new in drone ambient. Two projects - from Kiev, Ukraine and from Minsk, Belarus - explore guitar sound as a tool for developing abstract sound canvases. These abstract constructions are usually based on minimalistic sound streams and textures whose interlacing forms massive soundscapes.

Second Thought is the musical voice and brainchild of Ross Baker from the United Kingdom, who I spends much of his spare time recording music, and occasionally dabble at writing and taking photos. Started in 1999, his musical project Second Thought has released a series of albums and EPs soundtracking various places, which were noted for their use of piano and field recordings.Noisesurfer is a Spanish musical outfit of of Joachim Rontexlius. Started as an industrial, drum'n'bass project, now he works in other environments: more experimental, more noise and shoegaze, but always with spiritual and transcendent love for music.

Size: 63 Mb

Tracklist:
01. Anywhere But Here (feat. Laura Fisher)

06. I Didn't Know You Felt That Way
07. Glasnost

08. Regionalterations

Description: trip-hop, downtempo and near genres are quite rare guests on Hidden Vibes, and today is the day to change it. Willow Talk is a brand new collaborative effort featuring New York City's Laura Fisher and Philadelphia's Anders Lindfors. The two have come together to create a new and refreshing take on trip-hop/downtempo music. With a live set-up in the works and new music, 2012 looks to be a positive year. This is recommended to listen, if you like music of Bonobo and Massive Attack. Having not much to say, because Trials/Tribulations is not exactly my cup of tea, but I think it is good for the right ears. Check it out using following links:

10. stay lost  

Description: another great discovery in the world of minimalistic music. "Stay Lost" is a collection of ambient instrumentals. These tracks were created through the use of samples, VST synths and reverb-heavy guitars. Love, hope and nostalgia...forever. Basically one more album of minimal ambient sketches, but it has quite an uplifting mood, sometimes very calming. I would compare it to the quiet after, so if you liked that one, you will probably like this too. Promising material, check it out using following links:
