Best of 2015 Ambient

low light mixes · Dec 19, 2015 · 1h 7m

These year end lists are always difficult. But at least the top 3 spots this year were easy selections -

Alva Noto - Xerrox, Vol. 3

Max Richter - Sleep

Chris Walla - Tape Loops

It doesn't really matter which one grabbed the top spot, I listened to these three over and over in 2015. Noto is known for his electronic minimalism but Vol. 3 is beautiful and lush. Max Richter's Sleep is a recording of epic proportion - 8 hours long, it amazes me each time I listen. Tape Loops by Chris Walla(drummer for Death Cab for Cutie) has an old school ambient feel. It reminds me of Eno's Music for Airports…
