    Ambient Meditations S2 Vol 53 - Ryan Farish This week we welcome Ryan Farish to the podcast, who has been producing music under his own name since the days of MP3.com, where he was downloaded roughly 1.8 million times. This early success on the OG of streaming platforms started a long career in music, both in commercial work for brands like Audi and Bang & Olufsen and as a solo artist, with early tunes gravitating toward classic chillout and later into more 4/4 dancefloor work. His early chillout sound takes us back to the golden years of Cafe Del Mar and the endless, amazing "chill" compilations that defined the mid-90s and early 00s. His mix is a bit of a nod towards the classic with some modern touches, perfect for a glass of sangria and a sunlamp - just pretend you are in Ibiza watching the sunset.

Not giving up on weekly just yet, but there might be a downshift for 2022's Season 3. Anyway, this week we have put together a special mix from a new project by tech house producer Ben A and Chic Hooligan (aka David Ireland) that blends together some more laid back lofi grooves and then picks up a bit midway through with some chilled out house that weaves between afro/organic. It pairs well with 12-year-old rum, one ice cube, and no chaser. Sip up, lay back, and enjoy.

    Ambient Meditations S2 Vol 49 - AK   For many artists, music is a cathartic process; for some, it's a process to keep themselves in check and balanced. For Aljosha Konstanty, also known as AK, it's all of the above. Music for AK is a way to cope with anxiety, and his recent signing to Han Solo's bitbird label is a testament to the fact that it's working. "Sunrays" is the first single for AK on the label and proves that beautiful ambient soundscapes can exist alongside a 4/4 beat in a way that is soothing and slightly uplifting. We have always been huge fans of this balance on Ambient Meditations, and we look forward to hearing more from AK in the future on this label and in general. His guest mix hits the sweet spot of dreamy and uplifting, a perfect mix to pick you up like a warm cup of black tea spiked with a little whiskey. Enjoy.

    Ambient Meditations Season 2 - Vol 36 - A Winged Victory For The Sullen For the 36th episode of Ambient Meditations, we are joined by Adam Wiltzie of A Winged Victory For The Sullen. The duo consisting of Wiltzie and composer Duston O'Halloran are releasing a new album on February 26th entitled Invisible Cities, which is actually a condensed version of the score they created for Leo Warner's theatre production. The album is everything you would expect from AWVFTS and more, with big cinematic moments delicately balanced by crushingly lonely ambiance; it is a recording that causes your mind to race and your emotions to drift. The mix Wiltzie has put together for AM 36 is a bit of a new direction and a pleasant surprise packed with dubby and indie vibes that bring out Wiltzie's tastes perfectly. Enjoy.    Tracklist - AWFTS (Adam Wiltzie) Ambient Meditations Mix The Upsetters - Battle Axe The Meters - Ease Back Erkin Koray - Yalnizlar Rihtimi Babla, Kanchan - Ay Mere Dil Daryl Hall - The Farther Away I Am Roger Eno - Sunburst Spaceman 3 - Feel So Sad - Reprise Andrew Bird - Yawny at the Apocalypse Paul Kelly - Peace De Portables - Happy With The Way Things Are Brian Eno - Spider And I Johann Johannsson / AWFTS - Eg Heyroi Allt An Pess Ao Hlusta Brian Eno, Cluster - Wehrmut Adam Bryanbaum Wiltzie - The Burning Woman

    This week we are joined by Swedish pianist and composer Henrik Lindstrand who will be releasing his new album Nordhem on October 23rd on One Little Independent Records. His delicate, layered, and intentionally sparse compositions provide the perfect soundtrack for reflection. You can feel the emotions punch through with every stroke of the key, bringing you into Lindstrand's world yet allowing you to make it your own. His mix is remarkably reminiscent of his own work, a soundtrack for spaces and time, gently reminding us of our humanity, allowing us to feel more connected to the moment. You cannot help but be moved by these works, curated perfectly and programmed to enhance your journey, whether in an armchair or a coastal stroll. Headphones on, it's time to get ready for a sonic journey that will stay with you long after it is through. 

    Magnetic Magazine Presents: Ambient Meditations Vol 11 - The Ghost of Brian Eno (Reflections)

    This week we are doing something a little different, our guest is not a person per se but the algorithm of one. The application/album Reflections by Brian Eno is an experiment in machine learning applied to regenerative music, it's an algorithm that recycles loops and textures to create an ongoing ambient composition. It's like literally having the ghost of Eno just living in your iPad ready to create at any time, and what's even cooler is that it moves with the seasons and generates a video image to correspond with the sounds. Download it stat if you like what you hear. Headphones on, let's reflect with the ghost of Brian Eno.

    Ambient Meditations Podcast Vol 10 - Bing & Ruth (David Moore) This week we are joined by Bing & Ruth's David Moore to talk about his new album, inspirations from the California desert, the Farfisa organ, and more. Their new album Species came out on 4AD July 17 (2020) and will mark the fourth album from his shape-shifting modern minimalist/ambient ensemble. Moore's Ambient Meditations mix he has done for us runs almost as a sort of parallel to Species, a cinematic score to man's constant, if not eternal, existential dilemma. Inspired by classic soundtracks, artistic contemplation, and our place in the universe. The mix is expanding, beautiful, and timely in this time of pandemic peril, political strife, and global warming. This one will make you think, feel, and hopefully recalibrate. Enjoy. Tracklist: Gustavo Santaolalla - Tema Amores Perros + Atacama Jefre Cantu-Ledesma - Tracing Back The Radiance Thomas Newman - Angela Undress Chihei Hatakeyama - Alone by the Sea Late Bloomer - Countances Ben Seretan - Shotgun a Cigarette in an Empty Strip Mall Parking Lot

    For Volume 9 we are joined by Icelandic duo Hugar consisting of multi-instrumentalists, Bergur Þórisson and Pétur Jónsson. Their music might be described as minimalistic, with only the essential emotive layers to fill in the "white space." You might say there is a certain Icelandic quality to their sound, wide open and dreamy with artifacts of such greats as Ólafur Arnalds and Jóhann Jóhannson, with whom they have also collaborated. Their new album, The Vasulka Effect: Music For The Motion Picture, is out on Sony Music Masterworks later this year on October 2nd. This project is a unique concept, both an inspiring and unique album that is an extension of the original soundtrack they did for the documentary on visual artists Vasulka. For the mix, we are taken on an extensive journey of both familiar and unfamiliar, with a variety of feelings and textures - it is also the most extended mix we have ever had on the show. So put on the headphones and get to know the sounds of Hugar.

    Ambient Meditations Vol. 7 - Ferry Corsten as FERR You probably know Ferry Corsten more for his massive anthemic dance music than for his atmospheric tunes as FERR.

This week's mix includes some music from Corsten's new album and chillout veterans such as Chris Coco, Aquasonic, and Jon Hopkins. Sit back, put on the headphones, and enter the world of Ferry Corsten's FERR.
