The Ambient Hour, May 2025
It’s time for another hour of ambient music for you to unwind to. The thing I love about good ambient music is that it can blend into the background but it also rewards closer attention. And so it is here. You can put this mix on and zone out, or focus in. There’s acoustic sounds, drones, modular synths and organic piano sounds. It’s a treat!
Track list
- Dionisaf & KapTep, Waiting for Connection
Taken from: Modem Punk (Ambient Cat)
© All rights reserved. Used with permission.

Taken from: My Naviar Haiku (Self released)
CC BY-NC-SA
Inspired by the following haiku written by Marco Sebastiano Alessi: Endless echo footsteps on an empty house once full of life
Taken from: Take A Look At God's Face (Subexotic Records)
© All rights reserved. Used with permission.
Taken from 'Take A Look At God's Face' — the soundtrack to a short film of the same name by Jack Laurance, a short and true story about revenge, lost love and exotic animals.
Taken from: Materia Vibrante (Elevator Bath)
© All rights reserved. Used with permission.
Taken from “Materia Vibrante”, Susana López’s gorgeous new album for Elevator Bath. The album was built from field recordings captured at megalithic sites in Ireland, underwater sounds recorded with hydrophones in the rivers of Asturias, and electromagnetic wave scans from Birmingham. These sonic landscapes are interwoven with synthesizers, digital harmonium, experimental “sonic triangle,” multi-effects, percussion, and López’s voice — serving as a thread between the inner and the outer worlds.
Taken from: Invisible (Self released)
© All rights reserved. Used with permission.
This track is about using music as an escape, finding solace in ones inner worlds.
Taken from: Pictures (Chitra Records)
© All rights reserved. Used with permission.
The third album released on Chitra by the unique Tokyo artist Yosuke Goto. Like a picturesque photo, each track tells a small story of important and unimportant things.
Taken from: Reflections from a Sacred Pool (Self released)
© All rights reserved. Used with permission.
'In a Shroud made of Silk' is taken from 'Reflections from a Sacred Pool' and takes you on an acoustic guitar day dream with a gentle synth melody warbling across the stereo field.
Taken from: Hue (Self released)
© All rights reserved. Used with permission.
Taken from Hue, a collection of piano melodies born from the same place as my paintings. Where colours carry memory, and every note traces something lost…or newly found.
Each track is an echo of a moment I’ve tried to capture on canvas. Built from feeling and sound. If you’ve ever been moved by quiet beauty, subtle shifts, or the emotional palette of the in-between, I think you’ll feel at home here.
Taken from: Música Aperta (Umor Rex) Release of the week
© All rights reserved. Used with permission.
Música Aperta is a fusion of acoustic and electronic sounds, rich in beautiful harmonies, where carefully soft elements interplay with delicate raspiness. Made up of three parts, the music unfolds slowly, immersing the listener in time. Música Aperta resonates with echoes of Satie, the meditative minimalism of Arvo Pärt, the roughness of Phill Niblock, and the nostalgic reflections of Richard Skelton.
Taken from: Old Dreams (Self released)
CC BY-NC-SA
Old Dreams is an old piece written around 2011 and never properly recorded or released. While completing and recording some brand new piano pieces, this piece popped into my head and, on its first run through, seemed to have finished itself. Like it had been sat there in memory waiting for the time to come out, my hands feeling like they had been practicing the piece for days even though they’d not played it in years. Music is like that sometimes. It decides.
