On Simon James French BC Sublet

Some rather extraordinarily beautiful, eviscerating soft sounds from Derive Soundscapes Episode 2 here, the creator of 2010's "Misery" ambient masterpiece. Equally melodic, this stuff is heavily subdued, dreamy without dissonance, and big on reverb and delay trails, with a hardware sound. Rather analogue, gluing itself to your ears like well-tacked bands in big concert rooms.

I actually had to purchase this one and download it - it's so good! Well worth supporting.

but I like dissonance Smiley
Indeed. There is dissonance, to say more dissonance than dream imagery, but to let the dream take over...that's what this feels about.
Basically, ignore my bollox phraseology and give this a listen.
Statto should like it, at least.

I'm very into this kind of lo fidelity minimalism. Splinters along like fine wine trickling down the edge of a glass. At the same time, there is a constant lure to listen, to just zone in, to hear the differences, and allocate to oneself time and confidence.
