about

This album is a compilation of random drones, ambient sounds, and relaxing, unnerving, or both tunes. I started making these songs around 2019 or so, heavily inspired by Aphex Twin's Selected Ambient Works Vol. 2, and other droning, or ambient stuff akin to Aphex Twin, Brian Eno, Steve Roach, etc, and now it's in a state where I can release it as an album. I doubt this will sell, considering as of the release of this album, I am constantly broke with no job, but if you buy this album, or donate to me overall, I appreciate your gratitude. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

AUGUST 2023 UPDATE: This album is now available on streaming services! This took some time to get on there due to the distributor being a bit stupid with me, but it's finally up on varied services! I recommend you still buy off Bandcamp, but otherwise you can listen on various services as well!
