Presenting ... Creation By Inertia (waag_rel052) by Christopher Alvarado

Creation By Inertia (waag_rel052) by Christopher Alvarado is a remarkable recording, one I am proud to release on weareallghosts.

I am extremely grateful to Christopher Alvarado for the opportunity to release this album. It is, like all music released on waag, music I want to listen to.

Creation By Inertia (waag_rel052) features my kind of sounds - soundscapes that incorporate deliciously progressive percussion with sci-fi synths and otherworldly ambience to create trance-like states of reckless abandon. This album is full of truly immersive soundscapes, the type that sound great on a hi-fi or in a quality pair of headphones. This is music to get lost in.

It is important for me to acknowledge the work of Thomas Park in the mastering of this recording, and the lovely artwork of Sheleah Nahshon which was used expertly in the front cover layout by Simon Walsh. Thank you all for making Creation By Inertia (waag_rel052) what it is.

I really do hope you will get lost in Creation By Inertia (waag_rel052) too!

An MP3 version of this album is available for free on Archive or a lossless version available on Bandcamp for 'pay what you want' which does include £0 ... and remember, paying supporters on Bandcamp also get unlimited mobile access to the album using the free Bandcamp listening app.

If you do decide to download this album for free then all we ask in return is that you tell your friends, tweet a link or post it on Facebook, write a review and spread the word.

Presenting ... drone.excursion.003 (waag_dex003) aka 'uncertainty of suspense' by Scott Lawlor

Scott Lawlor continues on his journey into post-sixty minute soundscapes with the third in his drone.excursion series.

drone.excursion.003 (waag_dex003) aka 'uncertainty of suspense' is a fluid piece ... one that has a sense of movement while retaining an impression of artifice and of the man-made, like it's predecessor.

drone.excursion.003 (waag_dex003) is another delightful longform drone from Scott and I really do hope you will enjoy it as much as I have ... I found it a worthwhile journey to take.

An MP3 version of this piece is available for free on Archive or a lossless version available on Bandcamp for 'pay what you want' which does include £0 ... and remember, paying supporters on Bandcamp also get unlimited mobile access to the album using the free Bandcamp listening app.

If you do decide to download this piece for free then all we ask in return is that you tell your friends, tweet a link or post it on Facebook, write a review and spread the word.

Presenting ... "Glimpse (waag_rel051)" by William Spivey

I have a considerable amount of affection for the music of William Spivey - his ambient-infused melodic electronica is an utter delight and I am proud to release "Glimpse (waag_rel051)" on weareallghosts.

With "Glimpse (waag_rel051)" Spivey has cooked up a luscious sound-banquet that features a number of flavours that will indulge all your senses and captivate your heart.

Whilst I love his purely ambient pieces, I do appreciate it when Spivey adds beats, utilises sequencers and brings percussive expression to his tracks - they add something extra special to his compositions and help his music to stand out from his peers.

There is something very 'Klaus Schulze' about these tracks, a distinct progressiveness and movement that I simply adore. I have held on to this album for too long and am delighted to present it to you now.

An MP3 version of this album is available for free on Archive or a lossless version available on Bandcamp for 'pay what you want' which does include £0 ... and remember, paying supporters on Bandcamp also get unlimited mobile access to the album using the free Bandcamp listening app.

Presenting ... Silas & Friends vol.3 (waag_rel050) featuring Cousin Silas and his Friends

Silas & Friends vol.3 (waag_rel050)

The third volume of collaborations between Cousin Silas and his Friends - Silas & Friends vol.3 (waag_rel050) - is our 50th album release and 82nd release overall on weareallghosts.

It features 26 collaborations with 23 creative musicians and demonstrates the broad nature of ambient music.

Each combination is different ... each interaction releases some special magic, a synergy of effort, that brings out the best in both musicians and produces some truly exceptional music. As a non-musician, I find this utterly fascinating.

It would be unfair to single any one track out as being a highlight. I'll leave that to you, the listener, to do. What I will say is that I welcome this album to weareallghosts and hope you will enjoy it as much as I have.

I would also like to pay tribute to Brian Bourassa and Adam Howie. Adam drew this wonderful illustration over Brian's original photograph. I really like how it has turned out ... especially since I asked Adam to 'do something sci-fi, something Roger Dean' over Brian's original picture. Two wallpapers are attached with the Bandcamp release for the adornment of your PC or Mac, if you so desire.

An MP3 version of this album is available for free on Archive or a lossless version available on Bandcamp for 'pay what you want' which does include £0 ... ... and remember, paying supporters on Bandcamp also get unlimited mobile access to the album using the free Bandcamp listening app.

We are currently finalising the production of our first physical Cousin Silas release ... we have most of the cash required for 'The Sound of Silas'.

'The Sound of Silas' will be a double CD, limited to 100 copies, and will feature a range of music from Cousin Silas including an exclusive mini-dronescape and some remastered 'classic' tracks on one disc and tracks from his recent 'all guitar' project on the other. Any funds raised by Silas & Friends vol.3 will go towards this.

If you do decide to download this album for free then all we ask in return is that you tell your friends, tweet a link or post it on Facebook, write a review and spread the word.

We will post more information regarding 'The Sound of Silas' in due course but for now ... enjoy Silas & Friends vol.3.

Presenting ... "Dronescape 018 (waag_drs018)" by Cousin Silas

George Carlin once said ...

"Have you ever started a path? No one seems willing to do this. We don't mind using existing paths, but we rarely start new ones. Do it today. Start a path. Even if it doesn't lead anywhere."

This saying resonates with me for a number of reasons, too many in fact for here & now. What I will say, however, is how much I respect Cousin Silas' Dronescape project and how, in creating his own path, he’s created something that a lot of people have gained pleasure from.

He's a humble wee imp that Silas chappy, he'd be happy with one or two folks getting it. He considers the number of people who download & listen, AND support this project amazing for him ... it certainly amazes me.

I am grateful to Cousin Silas for providing us with this backing to our path making, whatever that path maybe, wherever that path may go. Dronescape 018 is a beautiful piece of music ... it lifts the heart and lightens the mood. I found 018 to be very relaxing and deeply meditative. It is the soundtrack to a spiritual journey, a path each individual decides to take to a destination only they know where.

I hope you will enjoy this dronescape as much as I do.

An MP3 version of this album is available for free on Archive or a lossless version available on Bandcamp for 'pay what you want' which does include £0 ... ... and remember, paying supporters on Bandcamp also get unlimited mobile access to the album using the free Bandcamp listening app.

Presenting ... "Invisible Sounds, Inaudible Sights (waag_rel049)" by Kevin Lyons

Kevin Lyons' music just gets better and better, in my opinion and  "Invisible Sounds, Inaudible Sights (waag_rel049)" is up there with one of the best albums we've ever released on weareallghosts.

The album is haunting from the start with the vocal samples used in 'Solstice' taking no prisoners from the off. "Invisible Sounds, Inaudible Sights (waag_rel049)" is an ambient tour de force, each track having its own magical expression. Tracks like 'You will become like us' with its otherworldly eeriness or 'distant suns' with its Lovecraftian grandeur really demonstrate how exceptional this album is.

You will note that two versions of 'Cradle Hill' are included: the original and an alternate take. When Lyons sent me through a second version of the track I just couldn't choose which one should be included ... so I included them both. I hope you will agree that they both have a place on this album?

I found "Invisible Sounds, Inaudible Sights (waag_rel049)" to be an exceptional album. Lyons really has taken his music to the next level and I am so proud that he remains with the weareallghosts netlabel. I truly hope you enjoy this album as much as I have.

An MP3 version of this album is available for free on Archive or a lossless version available on Bandcamp for 'pay what you want' which does include £0 ... and remember, paying supporters on Bandcamp also get unlimited mobile access to the album using the free Bandcamp listening app.

Presenting ... "Tales of Space Exploration 17 - 24 (waag_rel048)" by Brother Saturn

"Tales of Space Exploration 17 - 24 (waag_rel048)" marks the further continuation of Drew Miller aka Brother Saturn's "Tales of Space Exploration" series for weareallghosts. Miller picks up where he left off in waag_rel031 … continuing to document his journey into the deepest realms of the galaxy through ambient music.

Once more I hear real progression in these tracks … Miller is continuing to grow as a musician. He continues to explore the themes of travel, desolation, home and of loneliness with these further 8 tracks.

As before, Adam Howie has expertly expressed these themes in his cover art. His piece - "The Warm Embrace of the Final Chill" - will be available for sale as a print at devinatArt (kimded.deviantart.com/prints/) and RedBubble (redbubble.com/people/lurchkimded) … and is also included as a wallpaper in the Bandcamp release. As before, I would heartily encourage you to support Howie's work by buying a print.

An MP3 version of this album is available for free on Archive or a lossless version available on Bandcamp for 'pay what you want' which does include £0 ... and remember, paying supporters on Bandcamp also get unlimited mobile access to the album using the free Bandcamp listening app.
