This heavy dark ambient drone album explores themes of false hopes and empty feelings, reflecting the absence of hope in our seemingly meaningless lives. These extended dark atmospheres feature a blend of warm soundscapes, melodic synthesizer accents and raw scratchy elements.

Romanowitch :: A critical season substitute (glitch.cool) — [concise]
A critical season substitute is a relentless cascade of rough-edged textures and indomitable tones, refusing to relent and continuously pushing the boundaries of tangible sonic research.
Giannis Gogos :: Light Within (Saos)
With a seamless blend of structured instrumentation and drifting passages, this ten-track suite unfolds as a collection of evolving, serene, and blurred shoegaze elements that hover just above the realm of organic surrealism.
Sjellos : Lifeless Ground (Cryo Chamber)
With Lifeless Ground, Sjellos plunges listeners back into the dark, mechanical abyss introduced on his last album Transmission Lost (2013), intensifying the grim sense of desolation and uncertainty. Each attempt to move brings flashes of forgotten memories, or fractured images of a past life.
Kilometre Club :: It Doesn’t Snow In Toronto Anymore (Imaginary North)
Listening, I want the big fat flakes to fall from these dense ambient envelopes and rippling contours. Yet like the snow, these flakes of sound don’t fall, they just hover over the listener with a sense of unknowing dread. Moody isn’t even the half of it.
Amphior :: Disappearing (Glacial Movements)
Disappearing presents lonesome and meandering ambient pieces with a clear stylistic interest for tape loop techniques, blurred-out semi-classical sequences built on the reverbed piano and oxidation feeling from deteriorated-fractured acoustic instrumental signals.
ProtoU :: The Voice of Serenity (Cryo Chamber)
The Voice of Serenity establishes that spiral nebulae exist well beyond the edge of the Milky Way, while simultaneously dealing with the nature of the universe, the cosmos, as well as the study of the chronology of the universe and the actions of the cosmic beings who are completely indifferent toward humanity.
Apocryphos :: Atrementia (Cryo Chamber)
Atrementia was composed exclusively with circuit bent hardware, home-made oscillators, pedals and electric guitar fed through analog processing. Your memories are dressed in black. I can see them, you cannot hide from my lost eyes. What I hear are warm, analog noise and looped pedal drone balance light and dark, for day dreamers and long nights of reflection.
Daniela Huerta :: Soplo (Elevator Bath)
An eerie, hypnotic atmosphere permeates Soplo, with its ambivalent, wandering melodies, flowing synth patterns, unpredictable experiments, and manipulations, all complemented by processed field recordings.
