AUDIO: Psyclopean – “Nostalgiamancer”
Psychedelic-dark ambient project Psyclopean released their 19th album. Get ready to embark on a smoky, introspective, Lovecraftian sonic odyssey that gets variably awestruck, emotive and meditative. The record is self-described as Pink Floyd getting lost in the world of science fiction, which certainly conjures imagery of shadowy fantasies and the other-worldly ethereal. Keep an eye out for more Psyclopean and

Dark ambient project Noctilucant has returned with a new album. The story goes like this: you come across a city thinking it’d be utopian only to discover the exact opposite – a tyranny-ruled municipality of cybernetic overlords.

Mesmerizing layers of modular improvisations stack up like ladders into the sky with “All I Have Left to Give.” Deeply textural like majestic sunsets, these tracks are patiently optimistic yet hellacious in atmospheric texture. J. McCoy has been

Experimental-ambient artist Space Whaler has a new EP out. It’s three tracks that feel like we’re watching the sun rise and set in deep introspect; “Never Knew” features a minimalist melody and obfuscated lyrics, “What You Could Do” is something of an interlude that cries out into the sky, and “A New Day” hovers amid droning notes. Space Whaler loses

Ambient electronic artist Brandon Buhr has a new EP out, following up January’s “Journey Through the Mountains.” Being with the anxious drones of electro-classical nightmares in “Toba,” the EP moves into a desolate space void with “Dryas” and then concludes with the free-floating plane of nothingness prescribed by “Endless Ocean of Dreams.” It’s one of the most bleak soundscape collections

Ambient synth artist Xexyz has a new single out. It’s a gentle, liquid composition that feels like a quiet stroll through a rainforest. The tune plays with the rich colors of nature against shadows, waters, and peeks of sunlight. The cover art is beautifully geometric depiction of that, looking like the carpet in a classroom. It’s always a joy hearing
