Ian Boddy | Aurora | 2002 | bandcamp | 16/44.1 | FLAC
" “Aurora” sees Boddy creating a seamless mix between the 6 tracks, which covers an enormous amount of sonic territory in its 67 minute running time. The music runs the full gamut from purely abstract, impressionistic pieces such as the darkly oppressive textures of “Gravity Well” to the analogue sequencer driven track “Escape Velocity”. Boddy has created a work with an almost orchestral sense of dynamics despite the resolutely electronic nature of its voicings. Great slabs of sound rise and fall, twisted textures recede to near inaudibility…"

Buy mostly from eclassical. More recently, I also use Presto Classical as they have been offering discounts and now seem to embed the image file. Download at maximum resolution my 222 will allow.

19 year old bought the Dany limited edition of this on CD so I’ve just ripped it to the Innuos for him. Sadly only 1 of the limited edition covers is available.

Pietro Zollo | Fragmented Patterns | bandcamp | 16/44.1 | FLAC

“…As I listen, the music gives me suggestions which I would call abstract, because there is no objective or precise reference to reality. This process submerges me in a magical moment in which all these fragments make sense together and the music matches my mood, revealing my intention.” Pietro Zollo

theadelaidean / Steve Roach | Parallels | bandcamp | 16/44.1 | FLAC

…"This collaboration merges Baja Arizona-based Roach’s decades of mastery sculpting immersive soundworlds with Australia-based theAdelaidean’s delicate, meticulous sound design, taking the listener through a stately unfurling of translucent textures and etheric dronescapes. The synergy between the artists is revealed within the deep, resonating pads, liminal slow-moving sequencers, and occasional brilliant fractures of piano which provide a gentle propulsion through space and silence. Sweeping yet intimate, the over two-hour work concludes with the monumental 45-minute closer, “Intersecting Fields,” resolving on a note of transcendence, a lingering hushed state with fragments of glowing luminosity”…

Kingfishr - Live In Dublin

Saw them at Glastonbury on the Sunday and they really worked the crowd. Great goodtime music. The album, although recorded in Dublin, sounded like it was Glastonbury.
