Ten amazing music stories about ten incredible trees. Monom's 17th studio album tells the stories of the interconnections and exchanges of energetic imagination between forest trees and humans. Vibrations of the ten most common deciduous trees in Europe and North America are accompanied with the mixture of natural sounds of forests and chilled but playful music compositions.

Mokhov's new album, Massive Love, features uplifting dance music that will make the hearts of anyone passionate about eclectic mixes of dance/disco/house music beat faster. All sounds were created with just one synth: Massive. Sounding somewhat like a fusion of Todd Terje, Lindstrøm, Fatima Yamaha and Metro Area, these 6 tunes will make you yearn for more, bringing their uplifting, energizing, joyful, and catchy vibes to your home, business, project or earphones.



Description:unique blends of dub, global beats and downtempo ambient electronica
Genre:Ambient
Artist:Dubtrak
Album:Shoreline 303

I'm hoping I can interest you in new music from Dubtrak. "Shoreline 303" is an 8-track album of smooth and easy flowing downtempo beats. Deep groove melodica licks, lush synth pads and wave-crushing sounds give this nautical-theme music a unique, cross-genre vibe. Tracks are steeped in deep dub techno flavor yet the music feels much warmer and more colorful than most, typical dub techno tracks. Rather than invoking images of gray and fog covered seas, music on this album transport a listener to a sunny beach, with warm sand and fragrant air. Thanks to the skillful use of melodica organic sound, analog leads and rich, layered synth pads, Dubtrak creates an album of unique dimension: a fusion of downtempo electronica, retro synth pop and cinematic ambient soundscape.

Let's hope "Shoreline 303" will be your new, favourite destination!
