Ambient Atomic Orbitals

Today we feature Ben McCarthy.
An electronic musician and sound artist from Toronto, Canada. His work is produced intuitively, meticulously arranging found sound, samples, and software to make music that slips in-and-out of various genres.

He has given us free rein of 3 of his excuisite tracks from his up coming album DECORATIVE ARTS which will be available digitally from Bandcamp released on 25th June,

"The songs collected here are more exploratory than experimental. Pushing to make an
mp3 of the sounds and songs I heard seeded in generative melodies, field recordings, sampled videos, and free software. Made over countless smoky nights begun after my bbs were in bed, ending in the wincing chirrup of dawn birds. Lubricated by too much of my best friend’s rye. And just dumbly grasping for that sound, watching my breath unfurl between the monitors."

A bath of experimental / explorational ambient that fits very nicely within our world.
Get yourselves over to Bandcamp and show some love,

Little about the artists ....

This is the first collaborative release of Alpha Mound and Tidsrymd, and the topic of this particular sonic meditation is the altered state of dreams. Combining our resources we have made two pieces combining synths, electric piano and processed guitars, somewhere in the realm between ambient, doom-jazz, post rock or ethereal, minimal shoegaze. It's a slow building wall of sound, meditative but forceful, emerging in spacey, atmospheric, rolling melodies.

The EP is accompanied by a music video created by Alpha Mound (a.k.a. Joakim Westlund). The video takes the viewer on a colourful journey through space, using original video material from the ESA/Hubble-telescope, manipulated, combined and overlayed with still images by Joel Filipe, Gaetan Othenin Girard, Anfal Shamsudeen & Casey Horner (which are further manipulated and animated).

About the artists

Alpha Mound is the recording project of Joakim Westlund, who, since 2012, has released many albums, EPs and collaborations. His style is focused in the ambient genre and sometimes mixed into more deep going indie-electronica and kraut sounds. The sound design is always a main feature where you can find complex melodies alongside slow drones and spare rhythms.

Tidsrymd is the moniker of recording artist Johan Ohlsson. So far two digital EP:s have been released on Stålverk Records dabbling in neo-kraut, ambient and minimalism. Johan is also a member och the lo-fi electronic duo A Farrago.
