Open to the Public. Welcome to the Warpcast Ambient channel! A channel to discuss and post about all things related to Ambient music. From Ambient to Dungeon Synth, etc ...
"Although today the field encompasses everything from ambient music to sound baths, drone composition first began attracting attention through the work of Pauline Oliveros, whose album, Deep Listening, and subsequent “deep listening” philosophy, became a touchstone for the genre. [...]
"In what now feels like folklore, Oliveros descended into the Dan Harpole Cistern on the tip of the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State, alongside trombonist and composer Stuart Dempster and musician Panaiotis, to record their revered album, Deep Listening, released in 1989."
~ Vanessa Ague in Bandcamp Daily
The YT link is "Cistern Chapel Chance Chants" by the Deep Listening Band, a 20-minute ambient piece recorded in the Dan Harpole Cistern and released on their 1991 album "The Ready Made Boomerang."
RIP, Pauline Oliveros. 💜

Aphex Twin just dropped a large compilation album of tracks previously only released via vinyl at merch booths at his live shows. With the absolute best album artwork

Thanks to the @rawanon caster who pointed out Brian Eno's "Ambient 1: Music For Airports."
That cast spawned a music discussion thread on @brixbounty's cast, and I learned that @eulerlagrange.eth is also a dark ambient fan.
Brought two new followers to the /ambient channel too.
Keep it up, anon!

Today's deep-focus headphone-music for me is a great split album by two maestros of dark ambient: Sleep Research Facility + Llyn Y Cwn.

"Slow Water" by Peter Gabriel is a dark ambient classic from the soundtrack for the film "Birdy."
It was released in the mid-1980s before dark ambient even became a recognized genre.

Good take on ambient music from @aethernet. I like the emphasis on artful shaping of atmospheres and moods.
So glad to discover this channel. I'm a music journalist with a deep-dive focus on dark ambient.
Here's an excellent new release I've been listening to on repeat this week.
