Loscil: Sea Island (Ambient Goodness)

I have been playing this all day. Sea Island sounds fantastic coming out of my KRK monitors. This is a great soundtrack to this odd weather we’re having here in Vancouver. Scattered showers & sporadic patches of Sun never had it so good. Future Music gave this album a 9 out of 10 and I think they got it spot on this time. This ambient Vancouver native delivers all the goods and more with this Kranky Records release-Sea Island.

Daniel Miller Gets Quick Tutorial on Mute Synth by John Richards of Dirty Electronics

I’m currently reading all about Daniel Miller in a book I recently purchased called Just Can’t Get Enough by Simon Spence. I stumbled onto this quick little video of John Richards showing Mute Records founder-Daniel Miller how to operate the awesome little Mute Synth. For a nice little write-up on this, go to The Quietus here.
