Ambient Soundbath Podcast #66 is an original work that I (Matt Borghi) created expressly for the podcast. This composition, that I’ve titled: Morning dew gathered on weeping cherry limbs, came about as many of my tracks do. I was meditating and contemplating sound. I began to ‘play’ with some synthesizer sounds that went with my state…Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #66

This Soundbath, #65, and the first of 2018 is brought to you by the kind generosity and support of Soundbath listener, Roland Jehring, who’s tuning in from a small town outside of Berlin, Germany. It’s crazy to think that this podcast, which I create in the quiet midwestern environs of East Lansing, MI is being…Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #65 – Huronic Minor Trilogy

I discovered the music of Juta Takahashi on the SomaFM DroneZone internet radio station; I hear a lot of great music there and I try to bring some of it to the Soundbath from time to time. Juta Takahashi is one such case. Juta Takahashi was born in Miyagi, Japan in 1959, and produces music, primarily,…Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #64 – Juta Takahashi

This episode of the Ambient Soundbath Podcast features something that I haven’t done before here, a remix/remaster of sorts in the form of reworking the music for Geoffrey Chandler’s 1980 synthesizer space recording, Starscapes. Who is Geoffrey Chandler, I don’t know. Did he do other recordings? I don’t know that either, except I can’t find…Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #63 – Geoffrey Chandler – Starscapes

This episode of the Ambient Soundbath Podcast features a new original work by Matt Borghi (me) called Infinite Resonance. It’s a single track, long-form work that I’ve found works great for rest, relaxation, sleep and meditation. It probably works pretty good for yoga, too, but I haven’t tried it out in that capacity yet. This…Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #62 – Infinite Resonance

https://ia601303.us.archive.org/26/items/AmbientSoundbathPodcast/asb61.mp3 I’ve featured Off Land before on the Ambient Soundbath, but I’ve never dedicated an entire program to Off Land, the work of Tim Dwyer. This program features the tracks from the first two of, an ever-growing collection, known as, the (Drone Variations). I struggle to write about these tracks, not from a lack of…Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #61 – Off Land

This episode of the Ambient Soundbath Podcast features the work of my favorite living composer, Harold Budd. I have listened to, meditated with and analyzed no music more (save, maybe, Claude Debussy) than I have the work of Harold Budd. His music is like being a hugged by an old friend after a long journey.…Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #60 – Harold Budd

I first stumbled upon Moby’s Long Ambients after they were released in early summer of 2016. As a long-time fan of Moby’s ambient work I was excited by this free release, which is still available here: http://moby.com/la1/ – The complete 4-hour collection instantly became a meditational and relaxation go-to recording for me, as it’s calming…Read more Ambient Soundbath #59 – Moby – Long Ambients

I’ve wanted to do an Ambient Soundbath that featured Manitou for a long time, but just never got around to it. I think that I finally did it, at least, partially because an upcoming performance that I’ll be doing called Leelanau Uncaged, in Northport, Michigan, where I’ll be featuring Manitou live for the first time…Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #58 – Manitou

This episode of the Ambient Soundbath features an original work called Parallax Drone. It’s a work that I created after spending time listening back to previous episodes of the Soundbath, something that I’ve never really done before. For some, I imagine, the track might be a little too noisy, or droney or abstract, maybe even…Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #57 – Parallax Drone
