about

'Ablate'? It is a place.

Quote from 'The Hydrogen Sonata', by Iain M. Banks: ...planetary fragment called Ablate, a narrow twisted scrue of rock three thousand kilometres long and shaped like a hole in a tornado. Ablate was all that was left from a planet destroyed deliberately two millennia earlier, shortly before it would have been destroyed naturally, by the supernova within whose out-rushing sphere of debris, gases and radiations it remained, like an arrowhead plunging ever downwards into the rising, roiling head and sparks of a great fire...

The Culture Series is the source of inspiration for those new booktracks.

Thank you for Alev Lenz for "3", via a Spitfire's dedicated plug-in, supporting "Ten Thousand Light-Years from Ablate".

Thank you, Jonas Wagner (29a.ch) for "neonflames", supporting the art cover.

Thank you Iain M. Banks.

Custodi

Take the shimmering guitars of the Cocteau Twins, dilate and lengthen with the wistfulness of Boards of Canada and release them like one of Robert Rich’s haunting soundscapes with a jazz coda and you have Carlo Giustini's 'Custodi'. It's brilliant. sepulchre19

Lapis
by zakè

Serene ambient music that evokes guided meditation through the use of phase-shifting melodies, droning bass, and gauzy synth textures. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 8, 2024

by moonder

Hypnotic ambient and drone music crests in the second track, which clocks in at a whopping 46 minutes. Mesmerizing from start to finish. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 25, 2023
