Evlkeith's Freebies - Ambient


So here's the next instalment in my Last.fm free downloads trawl and it's the ambient section that I've been investigating. Not the easiest of genres, especially when I was previewing the tracks. Thirty seconds of a swirly pad slowly rising told me pretty much nothing about the track. A hint to people putting ambient stuff on Last.fm: put something interesting at the start of it. Singing's always good, but if you really want my attention give a piccolo a toot.



The tracks took a while to get into, but I've selected five fairly choice offering that, given a chance, should delight your eardrums. The condensed milk of the crop is 'Delorian'. The Portishead style singing did it for me. Shame about the lack of a piccolo.

1. Delorian - The Atomica Project - Metropolitan



2. Secret Society - Logical Disorder - Violent Playground



3. Monocrom - Monoceros - Imaginary_EP


4. XHD - Aydio - Deltitnu EP


5. Syntax Data - Abfahrt Hinwil - Links Berge Rechts Seen


Next time we will be delving into the genre commonly known as 'blues'. Mmm... not that enamoured with that but I'll give it a go.
