KapTep – Naming the Sky
Label: Ambient Cat (USA)
Format: digital, vinyl and CD
An exploration of the sky and more importantly all what remains unseen, — the millions of signals and mysteries that it hides.
Sacred Seeds and Synthbiont & Anassimandrus – Fragments of Silence
Label: Chitra Records (USA)
Genre, style: #ambient #darkambient #drone #noise
Format: digital, vinyl and CD
Each track is grounded in a strong atmospheric character, unfolding with deliberate progression. The album leans heavily into experimental minimalism, imagine dark tunnels, ominous energy fields, and brooding landscapes.
Keys for Eclipse - Notes from the Archive
Label: Élan Vital (Macedonia)
Format: digital, CD
Jacob Anthony's much-anticipated new album blends ambient and drone elements to craft dream-like soundscapes for listeners.
BinJa - Tree of Life
Label: Ambient Cat (USA)
Genre, style: #dub #downtempo #psybient #tribal

A sonic meditation on family, heritage, and the continuum of generational memory. This EP carries forward the themes and textures of ShaktiMan, released on Chitra Records in March 2025.
Tapes and Topographies - Partial Holograms
Label: Whitelabrecs (UK)
Genre, style: #ambient #drone #noise #neoclassical
Format: digital, CD
This work leans more heavily into software processing, filtering Ambient textures and melodic fragments through a deliberately limited palette.
The Humble Bee - Morning Music
Label: Dauw (Belgium)
Format: digital, vinyl, cassette
Originally released in 2010 on Cotton Goods — Craig Tattersall’s own imprint — the extensive album was born from a simple yet committed daily practice: over the course of four weeks, Tattersall set aside an hour each morning — between 6:00 and 7:00 am, before leaving for work — to write, record, mix, and document a piece of music.
KeepSleep - Complex Feelings
Label: Stereoscenic Records (USA)
Genre, style: #ambient #noise #neoclassical
Format: digital, CD
This album immerses you in a space where soft noises and synthesizer pads transform into warm and enveloping textures. Gentle piano parts appear not as main characters, but as ghostly and scattered shadows that emerge in the twilight.
o[rlawren] - The Intimate Overlap
Label: Dronarivm (Netherlands)
Genre, style: #ambient #noise #glitch #neoclassical #folk #avantgarde
Format: digital, CD
Working with field recordings, acousmatic and modular synthesis techniques, The Intimate Overlap is presented in a suite of two parts ‘a structure in naming’ and ‘a nearness to the world’ over four longform pieces covering the album’s 73-minute running time.
Evgeny Bylina - Accidental Meetings
Label: Florina Cassettes (Canada)
Format: digital, cassette
The album was created by chance while working on another record. Drawing inspiration from the prose of Samuel Beckett, this two-track tape laments the past, echoing the sound of the dance floor with its long, carefully constructed pieces.
Silence & The Unwinking Minds - Dawn Continuous // Remixes
Label: Mystery Circles (USA)
Format: digital
Album of remixes and reworks of the original album released on the same label in July 2025. It's impossible to say for sure that this is worse or better than the original, it's just a different album.
