Future Forever : Ion

Ion : Future Forever.
Clean, crystalline ambient.

Ever seen pictures of the ice hotels they build in Norway and Sweden every year? Well this sublimely wintery ambient album by David Hughes' side project, Ion, may just may be the perfect soundtrack for staying in one. Firmly rooted in the Berlin school, it's incredibly clean and crystalline and we love the modern utopias it conjures up with its frosty sequencing and big serene arcs of sound. Standout tracks include "Future Forever" and "The Silent Scream."
