After a short hiatus Guy Andrews returns with "Twenty Seven Inches Of Mercury"
"The composition was written during Storm Dennis in February 2020. Seeing how the storm was tearing through the trees that surround my home, I decided to record the sheer power of what was happening outside and use the dynamics of the recording to drive the textures of the overall composition. This approach to composition is something I am exploring: to be resourceful and look at what’s around me to channel inspiration, but also honour the source. I am trying to capture a sonic-fingerprint of time and replay it through textual composition." ~ Guy Andrews
According to wikipedia Storm Dennis recorded a low pressure level reading of 27 inches of mercury. The track consists of a eight minute field recording taken from that very day in February 2020.
Mastered by Matt Colton at Metropolis.

A great place to discover underrated ambient artists, and tracks from some of my favourites (and to support displaced Ukranian families). A warm, soulful, diverse hour. ajpoet

A wonderful musical collection that shows the unity of the whole world and the support of Ukraine during the long war, which will undoubtedly end with the victory of Ukraine. And now the terrible numbers... Only according to official data as of today #russiaisaterroriststate killed 510 children in Ukraine, injured another 1141 children, kidnapped 19546 children. There are many more unofficial victims. And russia remains a member of the UN... desynkro303

Some of Loscil's best work. Here he uses expansive orchestral samples to great effect, but it still has that inscrutable attention to detail that he's deservedly known for.
Loscil's music humbly hides the complexity of its composition, within its subtle detail, beckoning the listener to lean into the speaker and become immersed. Despite that, it is not disruptive in the background. JackG
