DreamScenes – July 2021
“The Place Where You Go To Listen” is a title from John Luther Adams’ ‘Arctic Dreams’ – but also the motto for this months’ DreamScenes edition.

Kevin Richard Martin * Three Point Circle

John Luther Adams * Philip Blackburn
From Arctic Dreams to reverberating cisterns of Istanbul: music from John Luther Adams and Philip Blackburn.
loscil * Murcof
Ambientblog does not generally cover the bigger names in ambient music.
In my opinion, both Loscil and Murcof belong to the more well-known artists of the genre – and most of you will probably already be familiar with their new releases.
But even so, I couldn’t bring myself to skip these releases. Simply because they belong to the best you will probably hear this year.
So here’s an exception to the ‘rule’.
DreamScenes – June 2021
“Dear penpal…
My computer is broken
I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to write, but as you can see, I’m not very good at this.
And sometimes I have to backspace over words and type ‘X’s through them because I don’t have any whiteout.
I hope I get my MAC back soon. Until then, you probably won’t hear from me too often.
Love…”
