CIRCLE OF LIGHT (Amazon) from Trunk Records. Derbyshire’s been on my mind lately, due to discussions about music for DEPARTMENT OF MIDNIGHT.

Released On: 24 Jun 2023Available for 3 daysFresh off the release of their first studio record in ten years, legendary Icelandic post-rock and ambient band Sigur Rós pick two hours of absorbing ambient music to help you focus, including Frakkur, Carl Stone, Gavin Bryars and more. And, of course, new music from Sigur Rós and their collaborators.
I have always loved the electronic washes and hymns of Black Polygons. Absolute peace.
This just popped into my head, but I couldn’t for the life of me remember who did it. Took me five minutes of desperate googling. The Strange Death Of Liberal England! Putting it here so I don’t lose it again. I do love a grand and grandiose guitar pop anthem, and this is a big one.
Once upon a time, I used to post night music. CEREUS by Isnaj Dui would be an excellent fit for that.
Big fan of his previous works. Tripped over this yesterday – seemed to be relatively new and I missed it. Scott Tuma, for me, is always excellent night music.
Sadly no CD release for this: plays, in the opening, a little like a more chilled version of France (with a slowed-down stoned version of Chris Rea’s banjo figure from “Let’s Dance”), before easing into a Tuluum Shimmering-like pastoral psychedelia. Something for summer afternoons: that opening piece is something you’d playlist after “Deep Blue Day.”
At times sounding like a churning minimalist nightmare ritual, but on the other end, a beautiful but heavy duty trance inducing drupad veena performance on half speed.
