Ambient Music Releases of the Week: April 12, 2024

Differ – KRM & KMRU

Kevin Richard Martin (The Bug) and Joseph Kamaru (KMRU) join forces for Disconnect, an album that releases June 14, 2024. Surprisingly, although KMRU is known for his droning landscapes of sound, he has contributed vocals to this effort. Differ is the first sample of their collab.

Winter Sun / Fever Dream – Gaussian Curve

Gigi Masin, Jonny Nash and Marco Sterk’s Gaussian Curve are back for the first time since their 2016 album ‘The Distance’, presenting two new tracks entitled ‘Winter Sun’ and ‘Fever Dream’.

Imprint – Koichi Shimizu

Composer Koichi Shimizu is best known as the sound designer for Thai film director Apichatpong Weerasethakul. This is a nice sampler of his work that goes from Japanese Environmental music and Autechre-like rhythmic pulses.

Amsterdam Blue – Jon Hassell

Smooth, cool ambient bluesy jazz from the soundtrack of The Million Dollar Hotel.
