Swash
This is about 6 passes of live-looping that all fit together nicely with the same mood (bleak, minimal, meditative) and tonality. [more inside]
Qualm
A disquieting quasi-ambient piece from January, 1999, which was among my first purely software-synthesized efforts. I think I was listening to a lot of Oval at the time. [more inside]
Backwards
As the unimaginative title suggests, this is my entry for the April MeFi Music challenge. It's an ambient type of thing, largely made from reversed guitar recordings. [more inside]
The Shape of the Sword
Title track for a work-in-progress album under my new ambient moniker Foreign Buildings. [more inside]
Photographer
Whispy male vocals and plenty of air for dream-weaving delicately frame this ethereal song. While "Photographer" is one of Ummagma's more melancholy songs, it's far from depressing. This one stands in the light.
Features male vocals by Alexx Kretov (Ukraine).
The Gospel of Beasts
A track for my newly-formed ambient pseudonym Foreign Buildings. Title based on a misheard quote. [more inside]
Lama
A love for the golden 4AD era, Pink Floyd and the likes of David Sylvian have all been woven into the thread of this music. "Lama" was both inspired by these bands and reflects their contribution to a new generation of musicmakers. Looking forward, but knowing where our roots lie… I sincerely hope you will all enjoy this Ummagma track. [more inside]

Pulse 27
It's been a while, and I figured I should come back with something wholly new (albeit about 4 months old). I've been holding out on posting this because, frankly, it's the most personal thing I've ever produced. [more inside]
Big Market
Pasar Gede (Pasar Klewer) [more inside]
Cog A.8a
Clockwork techno-dub.
Teleforming The Gate
An extremely challenging experimental noise-scape with massively overdriven synth loops. [more inside]
Not Far From Anywhere
Atmospheric accompaniment to Felix Baumgarter's epic Stratos jump (and my first music video!) [more inside]
Passage
work-in-progress track for a concept band/album. [more inside]

vampire deer - unwritten 4
a totally improvised guitar solo through 2 alesis nanoverbs, a dod dimension 6 (dual fx) and a behringer virtualizer pro - i love old cheap rack fx [more inside]
My ambient tune "Morning" showed up in this touching Source Filmmaker video (then on Valve!)
Morning is the first of four pieces from a release that I did earlier this year called "Within the Darkness." Quiet, atmospheric textures. I woke up one morning and this fellow on YouTube named MetalSeer had put up this really nice video from Valve's Source Filmmaker. [more inside]
Zola Jesus - Trust Me [I-495 Bridge Reconstruction]
A live performance of a "reconstruction" of a Zola Jesus song performed at Sonic Circuits Broken Mic Night. [more inside]
egg loops
A wonky, drifting experimental collage of recordings and processed loops. [more inside]
Ancient Hovercraft
More experimentation with "ambient electronic" music. Now with mellotron flutes! [more inside]
Four Chord Flower Song
For the March challenge, the four chords of pop success arranged in a slow sort of orchestral ambient thingy. [more inside]
I'm Sorry
Bowed Whamola. Multiple layers of the same note. Words fail to do it justice. [more inside]
Hyun-ae (Innocence)
mystery at sea
A short ambient walk on the ocean
Deep Freeze Rodox 394
Specks> Uniquify
So closes another chapter of the Gyrophonic discography. We end Step Outside with two tracks, which elide into each other. The second track begins around the 4'20" mark. [more inside]
Atmosphere
An ambient-ish track I made as an attempt to make a videogame-soundtrack kind of thing. Made with Ableton Live, Sylenth, Predator and Absynth.
in rain
A soft sided blue elephant lost in memory
Hitchin'
Very experimental electronic multi-genre bipolar worldbeat or something. [more inside]
Precious Moments
Fun with uncleared samples. Stairway to Stardom, Nina, Boots Randolph. Looking for feedback.
darkriver
More music for deep space, take your protein pill and put your helmet on. [more inside]
Dark fire road drive
Slow, drony, monochordal, minimalist, ambient electro.

Extended glitchy soundscape, recorded live using today's Google "Les Paul" Doodle and some hardware effects.
Weird Dream House
Lucid dreaming heartbeat house. Field recordings and textures recorded within the last week here in Seattle. [more inside]
Bow, bass and drum
Myself and Peterkins getting mellow on a Sunday afternoon. All acoustic, guitar and double bass, with added percussiveness from Peterkins.
Blizzard Season
duck hack attack
my friend found and hacked a dollar-store musical toy duck...and this piece is made of the awful and fascinating sounds we made with it. [more inside]
flaw and watchers
Part of a "music-each-day-for-a-year" project I'm doing. The bell sounds are all kitchen items (wineglasses, pizza cutters); my friends Ben Opie, Ben Harris and Dave Bernabo add some contrabass clarinet, violin, piano and oscillators, sampled from Ben Opie's CD release show. [more inside]
I turn around: it's fear; I turn around again: it's love
My first real ambient work. It comes from a pair of life changing conversations with two dear friends. [more inside]
Naomi Lullaby
A lullaby for my friends who had their first child on Christmas. Done in NanoStudio on the iPad.
Lifelong
This began as an improvised piece involving a Poly Evolver synth, a Memory Man pedal, and an iPhone running Moog Filtatron. Then I decided to bury everything in noise, fuzz and tape flutter until it became nigh-unlistenable. Enjoy!
Layered Bells
A little experiment in the ambient/minimalist Steve Reich/Mike Oldfield vein. [more inside]
Bonfire by A Gap Between
Bonfire is an ode to bucolic, cross-country driving moments in the Pacific Northwest. Produced by A Gap Between » http://soundcloud.com/a-gap-between
Akihabara Station Stairs
This is an environmental sound recording: rush hour commuters descend a staircase at Tokyo's Akihabara Station. You'll hear the dopey little melody (twice in a row) that they play for every train that pulls in, the clatter of feet as commuters rush down the stairs, the ambient bird call recordings they play in the station, and the pre-recorded announcements. Video here, which is the third clip so far at my new YouTube channel, HiddenTokyo
Ambient Piano Piece
On an old hard drive, I've recently uncovered a directory of sounds I created. I thought I'd share this one. It's an ambient piece.
Coz
Ambient sample-based electronic music with dubstep beats and a John Tavener clip.
Glamour City by A Gap Between
chill, metropolitan 80s chic. free download on soundcloud.
Channel 19
I grew up when there were only three or four TV channels, no internet. Now people want to be micro-celebrities, and want their privacy to boot. [more inside]
Shallow Pool
Mainly testing out a new mike. Acoustic guitar, sequencer and some cheesy drums. Oh, and a singing bowl...
korg monotron madness by vampire deer
just screwing around, really [more inside]
