I'm getting more and more into it, and the glitchier stuff, it's basically all I buy nowadays.

I've been pushing myself to make an EP and so far I've finished out two ambient tracks for it...It felt much more natural to make them and I finished them very quickly. Also for some reason I have been able to feature a lot of piano lines, and the chilly stuff is a better showcase for those.

Here's one that I've spent some more time working with, it's a followup to an upcoming single. Not completely ambient though, methinks:

^ Cool track. The start with the formant sound reminds me of the soundtrack to Antichrist:

been mixing the stuff for a long time now.

when done right it brings me a proper (comatose) mindstate. closest thing to trance outside of trance.

Well only because you asked but it puts me to sleep. Not quite like an ambien would do but more 500 gallons of GHB.

is this track really that long? seems more of an atmospheric breaks track than an ambient one. i really like it.

yea, some of the best 90 seconds out there. it's made as a soundtrack to a Norweigan movie of the same name. the movie is unknown and non-existant on English-language sites. i was hoping to rip it out of there, but no luck finding it. i'm hoping to run into it by chance one day.

I'd def make a long edit of this track if i had it... well if i wanted to use it in a set mainly.

if i were you i would download the collection of his commissioned works elsewhere. his site doesn't get updated very often.

in exchange i offer this recommendation:


you will like if you like the Brian Eno track posted above

Computer Music 153 featured an ambient masterclass

Thanks

Originally posted by tehlord I think there's a lot of 'chillout' music out there that's little more than relaxation noise and therefore not worth listening to,

I agree and I find all too often people fall into the trap of 'noodling with Omnisphere' so to speak.

Good chillout has a strong motif of sorts, a structure, a journey and more. Bad chillout is lazy in the extreme - just a few washy ambient sounds and some noodling about.

I also make a distinction between what I'd call a filmscore, and true ambient chillout work.They serve two very different pruposes and need a different approach but on forums I find the 2 seem to get mixed up.
