This episode features COMBAT//MOMMY & Auntie Chanel!
Ambient music is tricky business. It's finding the right balance between being open-ended and giving your listener something to hold on to. Part of what makes COMBAT//MOMMY fka Ancient Mariner so compelling is her willingness to break the mold. Her debut LP, Forever::Hotel, ambitiously infuses wandering swaths of synths with distant high-hats and trap-like beats. It never loses the immersive, longing that draws listeners in to ambient music while utilizing rhythm as a not-so-secret ingredient. Forever::Hotel veers between short, episodic moments to lengthy jams like the meme-inspired "Protecc:Attac" that you wouldn't mind hearing going on forever.
