It's more about the atmosphere and the production quality of it. This one gets special recognition because of it's ties to artists such as Ulver and Amenra, which in a way makes it stand out from the crowd. Dark, paranoid, layered, deep, unsettling and hauntingly beautiful. https://embed.spotify.com/?uri= spotify:track:44ncaX0QJZMNoSWP8XX00d Split Personalities I know none of this artist, other then that it's a solid piece of music, only if it is only 12 minute long. It's a good 12 minutes filled with cinematic soundscapes. I wouldn't be suprised if this is something of a soundtrack or at least from a soundtrack composer. The songs tell stories without words, create atmospheres to look around in. https://embed.spotify.com/?uri= spotify:track:7BRmj766fZpBj6IvGzezaG Bumblin’ Creed Championing spirits of locus and wonder. Banjo plucks and dobro jitters, finger-pickin' and avian charms, with unions of harmonium and harmonica waltzing endless time with Faulkner's southern ghosts. https://embed.spotify.com/?uri= spotify:track:4VuGSMfhHIOGM5yqybKo2G async A mesmerizing though unsettling ambient record that really grips the listener. The soundscapes are much like the cover art; seemingly simple yet abstract, but take a closer look and you can see there is all kinds of stuff happening beyond first glance, or apprehension. https://embed.spotify.com/?uri= spotify:track:34rImtGTgxCP8gUgwi9x0j Elements Soothing downtempo ambient/electro from Russia. Remnant of Abakus and Tycho, Fjordwalker is able to sculpt soundscapes with high production value and incorporate memorable chill-out beats to the mix. Wouldn't mind seeing this at The Cathedral of Chill @ OZORA. Spell of the Melancholic Landscapes A post-black-electro ambient record (Think 'Celestite' by WITTR). Though this has nothing to do with black metal other then the intent. It's a fine amateur record, but it's not at all renewing or revolutionary in what it does. Voyager EP An 'EP' which spans 40+ minutes. It's break time for these blackies and they choose to chill with cosmic ambient soundscapes, still solemn and ever lonely. Though there is a sense of companionship in this kind of lonely. An album turn of your head and flow on ethereal rivers. Salvage Dubbed 'the soundtrack of a coffee-bar in outer space', Salvage sets the standard for psychedelic chill-out with a jazzy feel. https://embed.spotify.com/?uri= spotify:track:3oo1LS8bNHNn54r1gg01co 122012 & 042911 Piano-centered ambient release. It's nice, but like most of us I bought it just because it's John Haughm, because let's be honest, anyone with a midicontroller could do this https://embed.spotify.com/?uri= spotify:track:4qRUF7jsBbDSnRXQ9JSP32 +37​.​717364 // -117​.​247955: The Last Place I Remember Distorion-centered ambient release reminiscent of Agalloch's 'Ashes Against The Grain' closing piece. https://embed.spotify.com/?uri= spotify:track:2YcYeUDBaLsrQc8ujnAOff Celestite "It’s a formless cascade of sound, a vision rendered with countless layers of synths, brass instruments, woodwinds, and the occasional electric guitar, all the while leaving out the human element. " This is the pure essence of black metal ambient, ever evolving suspense done right. Two Worlds
