Today’s Ambient: ANNUMINAS (Extended Edition), Arctica
Okay, I’m about to crash out, but I have to pin this for myself first. The opening piece on this is just sublime. Hypnotic, intimate, darkly perfumed. What a wonderful thing to end the night on.
Okay, so I guess I’m just doing summery drone-tropical-folk music today as I trawl through the back end of my Bandcamp saved-for-later queue. But this starts off beautiful and unfolds around the 10 minute mark into magnificent sun-dappled euphoric glory.
This is fascinating. Field recordings, atmospherics and crepitation, whispers and incantations. The sun just went down here and I feel like this is why.
