Nebulo

I've been off traveling for the past eight days, so I haven't been able to keep up with my blogs much, but I did listen to this song on many long bus rides throughout Rajasthan. Another French musician that makes great ambient.

Burial

I have always been so intrigued with Post-rock and Ambient music because for me it has the ability to evoke emotion from deep within. And a wide array of emotions at that: loneliness, joy, emptiness, depression, happiness, hope. That is exactly why this music is so addicting to me. And on a whole I cannot find other types of music that spark so much emotion from within. However, that is not to say other music cannot do the same. I have found that Doom, Drone, and even in the case of today's post, Dub, can do the same. I have never restricted myself to one type of music, but I think I have a lot to learn from other types of music. I came across the song "Forgive" by Burial about six months ago and have not stopped listening to him since. His music truly moves me. I am not sure where I am going with this, I guess all I can say is...cheers to music that has the power to change your mood.

Diaphane

Diaphane: Woven silk "stuff" with transparent and colored figures, also the name of Régis Baillet's solo project. This french artist creates dark and mellow soundscapes that are sure to captivate.

Subheim

Subheim is the amazing solo project of Kostas K. The first time I listened to this song my roommate came out of his room and asked if I was hacking into some secret government website. I guess I could see where he is coming from, but I can't stop listening to this haunting track. It helps you search the depths of your soul.
