Ambient Meditations S2 Vol 52 - Factory Planets (LoFi + House Mix)
Well, maybe we just should be honest with ourselves and call this a biweekly podcast? Not giving up on weekly just yet, but there might be a downshift for 2022's Season 3. Anyway, this week we have put together a special mix from a new project by tech house producer Ben A and Chic Hooligan (aka David Ireland) that blends together some more laid back lofi grooves and then picks up a bit midway through with some chilled out...

Ambient Meditations S2 Vol 49 - AK
For many artists, music is a cathartic process; for some, it's a process to keep themselves in check and balanced. For Aljosha Konstanty, also known as AK, it's all of the above. Music for AK is a way to cope with anxiety, and his recent signing to Han Solo's bitbird label is a testament to the fact that it's working. "Sunrays" is the first single for AK on the label and proves that beautiful ambient soundscapes can exist alongside a 4/4 beat in a way that...
