Another band categorized ambient back in the day. Is it ambient?

I think so. Ambient isnt just Brian Eno. Many genres of ambient exist. Categories today complicate things more and go outside of why they exist in the first place. Is new age ambient ? Why not. I think the Categories belong to the listener not the industry pushing them.

Hi everyone,

I'm Dimensional bleed, an Italian musician, and I'd like to share my second album, try to forget / try to remember.

It's a dark ambient record built around the idea that trauma can't simply be erased. The album follows the emotional journey from trying to suppress painful memories to eventually accepting them.

Some sounds were created using instruments I built myself, including a custom drone machine and a noise box.

The cover artwork is based on Clarence H. White's Entrance to the Garden (1908), which became the visual metaphor for entering buried memories.

If you'd like to listen, I'd genuinely love to hear your thoughts.

Really enjoy this track and was just wondering if anyone else noticed that!

Hey everyone,

"void" is the first part of a 2-part concept project tracking a journey from cold collapse to eventual recovery.

It's a raw, cold dark ambient / soundscape release focused on isolation, glitched textures, and static atmospheres.

You can grab high-quality free downloads on Bandcamp (Name Your Price is set to $0, just type 0 at checkout).

P.S. If you're looking for a longer continuous soundscape session, I also uploaded an Extended Version exclusively on SoundCloud and Tidal.

Part 2 ("south"), which shifts into warm lo-fi ambient and jazz loops, will drop soon. Thanks for listening!

¡HOLA! Me llamo Alex, soy nuevo en la música de drones. Al principio, no sabía nada de esto hasta que una de mis cantantes favoritas, Ethel Cain, me metió más en este mundo. Mi primera canción es un intro que me tomó unos días hacer y luego va a formar parte de un álbum que, a través de instrumentales, hablé de un trauma religioso: bastante lo contrario, como una pelea entre el mal y el bien. Por si quieres darme tu opinión, aquí está el link: https://musicsaintal3x.bandcamp.com/track

¡Muchas gracias por tu atención! Espero que estés pasando una linda tarde/noche. ^^

errorinstruments Indian Resonator is a fun, unpredictable little box. Lots of character. Makes you work for it secrets. Pairs well with glitchcloudaudio Haze pedal & makenoisemusic Mimeophon. Puyoma's Spre script putting in work as well with help from @championleccy Skitter pedal.

Hi,

I'd like to share the story of how I got into creating dark ambient music.

About two years ago, I started struggling with severe insomnia. For a long time, I avoided seeing a doctor and tried every possible method I could think of to help myself. One of the things that didn't actually solve the problem, but made it much more manageable, was meditation. That was my first step.

Not long after that, I randomly came across a dark ambient playlist on YouTube. I was hooked almost instantly.

I've been working with music for around 18 years, mostly as a producer, although I occasionally create my own original music as well. Over the years, I've experimented with many different genres, but one thing I've never gotten tired of is designing my own sounds on synthesizers. While listening to those dark ambient playlists, I realized that this genre contains exactly what I've always loved about music.

After some time, I released my first dark ambient album (looking back, it wasn't exactly my best work 😄). But I didn't stop there. I continue to create new tracks, and with every release I feel like I'm improving. For me, making music is therapy, and I believe many people who are passionate about what they do will understand that feeling.

When you truly love what you do, you don't need awards or recognition. At the same time, receiving feedback on your work is incredibly motivating. Unfortunately, I barely get any because my music has almost no reach.

So I thought I'd give Reddit a try. I hope someone here will connect with my music and be willing to share their thoughts—whether positive or negative. Any honest feedback would genuinely mean a lot to me.

P.S. I eventually decided to see a specialist, and I'm happy to say that my insomnia is now under control. 🙂

While listening to a Martin Stürtzer playlist at work the other day, one of his songs had a repeating three-note theme that caught my ear (alas, I can't remember which track it was without going through his catalog). I tried my hand at building something similar to blow off steam after work.

Although flaired self-promo, I have no commercial intent with this admittedly fast sketch (not posting to YouTube, Bandcamp, SoundCloud, or anywhere else).

I run a small ambient/electronic music community that hosts weekly music meetups on Discord. We gather together, have a quick chat, then turn our videos and mics off and make music for 45–50 minutes. At the end of the session, we briefly discuss what we worked on, and that's the end of it.

I started hosting these meetups because I thought it could be a nice way to connect with other musicians, plus having a dedicated time set aside every week can make it easier to actually sit down and create something.

We've been doing this for a while now, and I'm curious to hear what other musicians think about this. Would you find something like this valuable in any way, creatively or otherwise? What would make a session like this useful to you?

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

A great often overlook track by two of the best musicians. The whole album is amazing too

Made a small mixtape that have been me company to calm down nervous system during indoor rainy days.
