Alex Kozobolis ~ Weightless
With Weightless, Alex Kozobolis has managed to do something we thought impossible: to combine original tracks and remixes in such a way as to offer a complete album that never betrays its origins. For this we can credit the four remixers, who provide

ACL 2016: The Top 20 Albums of the Year
The last album we reviewed this year ended up being the best ~ in light of the title, a fitting end. Our cover image is taken from its lead video; the actress seems to be giving the album a closer listen.

ACL 2016: Top Ten Ambient
There will always be hard days. We will always need to be soothed. But there is also great beauty in the world, which is where this genre makes a (quiet) impact. The irony: some of this year’s ambient albums get loud. Perhaps

Drombeg ~ Earthworks
Thom Brookes calls Earthworks “a soundtrack for the middle of nowhere,” but the sounds are better described as applicable to the entire earth. With references to the Bible and geology, it even manages to straddle the line between creationism and

Siavash Amini ~ Subsiding
Iranian artist Siavash Amini follows up last year’s fine What Wind Whispered to the Trees with an ever fuller album. This time around, his guests contribute not only violin, but viola and clarinet. The result is a sound that is somewhere between drone and

Tiny Leaves ~ A Certain Tide
A Certain Tide is the next step in the evolution of Joel Pike. The artist’s early endeavors were hazy, ambient-laced piano EPs, but over the years, he slowly added strings and inched his way toward modern composition. As the artist developed

Tiny Leaves ~ A Good Land An Excellent Land
After three well-received EPs (one in 2011 and two in 2012), Joel Nathaniel Pike is set to release his debut album. We were pleasantly surprised by the last two EPs (the first came out before we existed), and the new

Moon Zero ~ Tombs
Confined inside a tomb, breathing out centuries of fine dust, Tombs awakens. Luckily, it’s not the Tombs we know of from The X-Files, but it does hold just as menacing a lair as the one featured in the show. Dusty, dry winds
