Timewave Zero
Blood Incantation
What Wolves in the Throneroom's Celestite did for black metal, Timewave Zero is a space-ambient album by a death metal band. It starts and builds anticipation with layered tension rising from quiet depths, pulling the listener along to what might happen, but eventually nothing really pops off and the album just keeps on meandering. Sounds nice, expected a bit more

The Sense of Dust and Sheer
Treha Sektori
Ambient / Noise is always hard to appriciate in writing such as this because a lot of releases blend together, as do songs on each release. 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.

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.

Bumblin’ Creed
Padang Food Tigers
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.

Ryuichi Sakamoto
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.

Fjordwalker
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
Astwind
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
Spectral Lore
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
Another Fine Day
Dubbed 'the soundtrack of a coffee-bar in outer space', Salvage sets the standard for psychedelic chill-out with a jazzy feel.

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

Celestite
Wolves In The Throneroom
"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.
