about

I'm proud to announce Somnambulant Drift's second release, Source Foray. It's a compilation of songs from ten artists I deeply respect. I gave few guidelines when it came to style, knowing that I could count on each artist to provide something unique. I wanted to let the eventual repertoire speak for itself.

Some contributors are not known for ambient work, which made the potential outcome even more exciting to anticipate. What resulted was, to my delight, a wide variety of enthralling music that eludes classification. It ranges from lush wallpaper to spooky improvisation, touching on dubby oceanscapes, bouncing synth basslines, and intricate melodies along its 60-minute run.

I’m honored to have pulled together such an important cast of musicians for this album, and I’m excited to share it with the world.

Special thanks to Rob Theakston and Sam Valenti IV for their help and counsel.

Anthology Of Experimental Music From China

This, friends, is my only reported “favorite album of 2021.” This album- granted, an anthology- has so many textures. I noted in a 3-track ‘spanse being reminded of Four Tet (albeit beatless), Trepaningritualen (plus harmonica), and Acid Mothers Temple (sans guitar). The Sonologyst is a curatorial genius. Creativity rules this world. cielocanth

Excellent pressing of this beautiful LP. Labels charging orders of magnitude more for pressings that are scuffed up, off center, and noisy should take note. And it comes with an anti static sleeve to boot. Buy the record, you’ll love it! fbreech
