of droning ambience with elements of shoegaze and distant techno woven into the mix.
II: Plains / Patterns is some of their most rhythmic work to date.

Carl Weingarten is a long underrated ambient slide guitarist. Hopefully, this reissue
of his 1985 album, Living in The Distant Present, can change that. His music is deeply
meditative, and will be comfortingly familiar to fans of new age music. Most
impressively, Weingarten manages to find the ambient slide guitar equivalent of
shredding.

III: Chroma/Contour is the third album from Billow Observatory, the now long standing
ambient collaboration between Jonas Munk (who has worked with Ulrich Schnauss) and
Jason Kolb. This is a sparser minimalism than they've ever attempted, whose power lies
in it's willingness to suggest rather than shove the answers in your face.

It's probably fair to say that Jonas Munk gets about. Back in the early 2000s he was
known as Manual, today he's better known as the guitar player and producer of Causa
Sui. Out on his own he makes ambient pieces out of his own guitar and effects pedals.
The sort of album that is a slow burn with every component taking its time to reveal
its colours. Another string to what is a very large bow.

Big-name Europeans Ulrich Schnauss and Jonas Munk have both had long and varied
careers on what we call the 'circuit'. Schnauss under his own name and (implausibly
perhaps) as a member of Tangerine Dream, Munk with Manual, Causa Sui and solo.
