In this program, we'll be representing two very experiential expressions of ambient music with our two featured artists. Spanish ambient artist David Cordero illuminates the first half of the program with his meditatively slow blooms of warm sound from his new release "Numen", and the dynamic duo that is CoH and Wladimir Schall take us to deeply experimental territory with their amalgamation of neoclassical music and avant-garde sound design with their homage to Erik Satie and John Everall from their album "COVERS".
In this episode of The Relay Station, there are two albums that are essential listens, each with their own unique approach to textured layers, wide vistas of sound, and intriguing sonic spaces for reflection. My first featured artist is the incomparable Silence and the Unwinking Minds with new music from their album Emulsion — an ambient experience that's made my essentials list; and later on in the program Ed Herbers with the first in a series of four ambient albums exploring the four seasons — a fantastic listening experience with his gorgeous and innovative approach to ambient music composition.
