The Way Of Time takes loose inspiration from Elizabeth Madox Roberts’ novel The Time Of Man, sampling Joan Lorring’s voice from the 1951 radio play adaptation of the novel. Biosphere’s signature ambient loops, soothing arctic synths and melodies combine with Lorring’s sweet, wistful and deep-south wonderings to create a record that is both deeply human and searching. The record will be released via AD 93 on the 20th June 2025.

The Flashbulb - Papillon releases in 24 hours on Bandcamp exclusively. It'll be available across streaming services next month.

Layers of Afternoon is meant to reflect a certain experience of time—something both tangible and vague, felt yet not easily described. These moments often emerge in patterns, sometimes brief, sometimes sustained, but always formative. We recognize their uniqueness, yet something subconscious in us yearns to identify and indulge in these patterns. Perhaps we avoid discussing them for fear of sounding mundane or inconsequential, yet they return to our memories often, offering collective comfort.

Some of the earliest work we've ever seen from Steven Halpern, and some of the best – a mid 70s set that predates some of his better-known new age records of later years – and which has a sound that's maybe a bit more compressed and focused overall! Steven's still playing plenty of Fender Rhodes throughout – using the keys in those enigmatic ways that always make his records so great – mixed with light touches on bass, trumpet, electric flute, and guitar – but only at a few points, so that most of the record is just Halpern opening up with these beautiful lines on the Rhodes! Side one features the long "Sound Spectrum Suite" – and side two features "Be Muse Ment", "Trans Pan Dance", and "Subtle Body Suite" – the last of which is actually a funky Rhodes tune! © 1996-2025, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Musician, composer and producer Sam Beste, aka The Vernon Spring, muddles cinematic spoken word segments with cosmic piano flourishes and jazzy, dusty rhythms on 'Under a Familiar Sun'. Beste has played piano on an impressive number of records, from Leon Vynehall's 'Nothing Is Still' to Kano's 'Hoodies All Summer'. As a solo artist, he prefers to work as The Vernon Spring, accenting his limber piano performance with kaleidoscopic electronic processes and collaborations. Acclaimed English writer Max Porter reads over Beste's muted Duval Timothy-style tones on 'The Breadline', and Hamburg's Iko Niche is barely audible on 'Mustafa', her digitally-altered voice woven into Beste's patchwork of electric piano vamps and field recordings. 'Under a Familiar Sun' is engagingly sincere, and Beste's a talented producer - the tracks featuring New York-based polymath aden on vocals, 'Esrever Ni Rehtaf' and 'Counted Strings' stand out particularly. Her soaring, breathy vocals are the perfect foil for Beste's cosmic tones.

Loscil (aka Scott Morgan) returns to kranky with Lake Fire, a nine-track offering of ash-laden sonics that mine the tension within the cycle of destruction and rejuvenation. Lake Fire is the result of a disjointed creative process. Originally conceived as a suite for electronics and ensemble, most of the original compositions were deserted, save for Ash Clouds, featuring James Meager on double bass. The remaining tracks were reshaped and remixed, built anew out of the remnants of the abandoned work. The result is a phoenix, an album burnt to the ground only to be reassembled out of its cinders. Fragments of the original lurk beneath a densely overpainted canvas of sound.

In November 1981, Klaus Schulze was scheduled to go on a two-week tour through Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland and France, which was to end in the Audimax Hamburg. Multi-instrumentalist Manuel Göttsching accompanied Klaus on tour as a special guest. This recording of the Hamburg Audimax concert was originally intended as a spontaneous, internal documentation; as a nice souvenir for everyone of a wonderful tour and now, after more than 40 years, allows all fans to share in the wonderful memories. With this in mind, we wish you - certainly also on behalf of Klaus and Manuel - a safe journey. Bon Voyage!

5 Hours of Vangelis inspired music with plenty of references to the beloved music of BLADE RUNNER. When Vangelis died on 17 May 2022 (aged 79), it hit harder than I could have imagined. Coming only weeks after the death of Klaus Schulze, I found myself in a fug of unproductive thoughts about mortality and what we really leave behind when we depart. It's probably my age. I was thrown a lifeline by @KidNarco over on Twitter who DMd me to say, "Vangelis tribute compilation? I appear to be ready." I slept on it and in the cold light of day I realised that it had to be done. For Vangelis, for me, for Kid Narco. For all of us. I went back to him. "I’ve been thinking that this is a pretty fucking great idea." I told him. It was on.

This month, an album from many, many years ago, when I made music from a place of hope. This time, however, not in an attempt to show that no more remains… but to try, yet again, to know that it can never truly disappear. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to every person who never lets me forget. You are my greatest blessing, and my greatest curse. But I owe you everything. This is for us.

As a significant metaphor in Steve Roach's sonic milieu, the ever-evolving sky helped inspired these lush and enveloping emotionally engaging atmospheric meditations. The album’s four longform compositions slowly unfurl harmonic wonder and timeless spectral melodies balanced with grounded mantra-like rhythmic elements; all combine with a yearning to merge into infinite realms of feeling and expansion.

"Stream for Consciousness" is a concept born from experimenting with various ways to create ethereal ambient soundscapes, targeting different moods and uses.

For its inaugural release of 2025, Past Inside The Present proudly offers a powerful set of new pieces from experimental ambient veteran bvdub (aka Brock Van Wey), simply titled 13. Across its duration, spacious arrangements nest in clouds of reverb, underscored by granular details and entrancing synth arpeggiations. According to Van Wey – a long time scholar of Eastern ideas and literature – every section represents one edict or idea from chapter 13 of the Tao Te Ching, the foundational text of Taoist doctrine, which promotes humility and freedom from desire as the core elements of a peaceful existence.

The first-ever vinyl edition of Cités Analogue (1988) by French duo Lightwave brings a long-overlooked kosmische and concrète masterpiece to light, expertly revived by Bureau B. Perfect for fans of Brian Eno, Tangerine Dream, Jean-Claude Eloy, or Oneohtrix Point Never, this album offers an expansive, cinematic journey through analog synthscapes. Following their debut Modular Experiments (1987), Christoph Harbonnier and Christian Wittman crafted Cités Analogue using an intricate array of RSF, ARP, Roland, and Oberheim modular systems. Recorded on a Revox B77 tape machine, the album unfolds in vivid, dreamlike vignettes and widescreen compositions, blending finely layered analog synths with poetic concrète influences. Highlights include the ambient textures of "Airport," the Radigue-like tonal subtleties of "Correspondence pour ailleurs," and the rhythmic sophistication of "Le Parvis."
