Edit ***

We are pleased to introduce for the first time in this edition ‘Almost Random’ on the Cyclical label. The musicians' compositions blend light and dark ambient sounds, incorporating atmospheric elements and subtle touches of symphonic scoring. Based in Scotland, Portland Vows delivers an immersive auditory experience characterized by minimalistic sparkling undertones and light female voices. Orca Attack! is Elizabeth Joan Kelly and David Rodriguez, a duo from New Orleans blending swamp rock, space opera and folk music, exemplifying certainly experimental sounds.

It was sad to hear that musician Loren Nerell passed away in July 2026 at the age of 65. He dedicated many decades to blending ambient electronic music with gamelan, leaving behind a rich legacy. As a tribute, we have selected two tracks from his 2016 release ‘The Venerable Dark Cloud,’ on the U.S. label Projekt.

SEQUENCES PODCAST NO 291

We had aspired to incorporate more dynamic content into this project; however, that was not achieved. There is once again a predominance of new downtempo, ambient, and dark ambient tracks.

Almost four years after his last album with “Epsilon”, we begin with 4th Eden’s “System In Motion”.

I was pleasantly surprised by the playlist on SoundCloud from our recent two-part edition! The ambient downtempo tracks clearly resonated with listeners, with twice the stats of the more uptempo tunes. Looking at past one-off specials, the ambient side still led the way-Erik Wollo reached 1300 plays, and surprisingly, David Parsons topped the charts with over 2000 listeners. While we can’t get detailed stats from most of the sites where our podcasts are featured, we’re happy to see that many of our fans are now discovering us on iTunes, according to a website that monitors certain music sites. Once again, in this latest podcast, ambient and downtempo tracks make up about half the playlist. Enjoy the show.

Finally, we are pleased to present our June podcasts following my family commitments. There has undoubtedly been a backlog of new music to review. With several weeks to catch up, we are now releasing a double edition that encompasses a diverse range of electronic music genres. Part 2 is our customary three-hour edition, split into two sections: the first is more relaxed, and the second part introduces significantly darker soundscapes.
