Ambient Landscape's Podcast

As if I needed an excuse . . . here is, praise the Muse, a "lost" edition of the series.

While sorting through some physical CD-Rs in the music vault during 2024's Christmas break, I came across this unfinished project made years ago with Roxio Music Editor. The roughed out version wasn't bad . . . it just needed a little polish and an upgrade.

I imported the mp3 tracks into Audacity, added the necessary enhancements (audio leveling, sequence, segueing, edits, etc.) and grabbed two new tracks that fit the overall "feel" of the project/series (Hely + Ambarchi, Berthling & Werliin) to round off the set.

d e p t h | Ambient / Drift / Drone | 83:49

A tribute of sorts to the depth of Steve Roach’s sound-shifting catalog. I dug deep into my collection of Steve’s albums for some deep cuts & deeper drones, then blended the Jarguna/Russell track to set up the tempo for the last 1/3 of the podcast.

Not being one to listen to entire albums from any band or solo artist, I make mixes to satisfy my Jones for various ambient, experimental, et al sounds.

Hand-crafted, with seamless segues, late October 2024 — enjoy!
