Only one day after I published the previous Various Various post, the Tâalem label published two massive compilations, together stretching up to 24 hours of music, sounds, drones, and experiments. So here’s an ‘addendum’ to the previous post.
A selection of ambient music compilations: from reinterpretations of the cold Bora Scura storm to heartwarming Pop Ambient, two Whitelabrecs compilations, as well as music from Scandinavia, Ireland and ‘Utopia’.
Three different (acoustic and neo-classical) soundtrack albums that work together very well: performed by Gideon Wolf, From The Mouth Of The Sun and Shida Shahabi.
Two (of six) releases from the latest (and last) batch of Taâlem 3″-CDr releases: The [Law-Rah] Collective and Peter James.
‘Drone music’ has a long musical history spanning all continents, which can be felt when performed with acoustical instruments. Two beautiful examples.
