earman024 - Darkened Soul - Dreamscapes We are happy to welcome Darkened Soul, one of the premier ambient artists around, to Earth Mantra. Darkened Soul is known for lush, soulful soundscapes that are, well, dark. While "Dreamscapes" is definitely plenty dark for any fan of the genre to enjoy, it easily evades the trap of unlistenability that dark ambience too often falls into. Indeed, this is an extremely approachable album for any fan of ambient music...

| Darkened Soul - Seasons of Dark and Light - Darkened Soul
earman088 - Darkened Soul - Seasons of Dark and Light It's been quite some time since the last release by Mike Soucy on Earth Mantra. But the wait has been very much worth it. Mike's latest chapter in the Darkened Soul series, entitled "Seasons of Dark and Light", is a gorgeous and deep collection of moderately dark ambient music. And by deep, we mean all the way to the abyssal depths. What a collection of music this is...

| Darren Harper - Time Forgotten - Darren Harper
earman094 - Darren Harper - Time Forgotten Earth Mantra again has the pleasure of welcoming a new artist to our humble netlabel, this time an ambient musician hailing from Colorado by the name of Darren Harper, who brings us this exquisite collection of introspective ambient pieces called "Time Forgotten". While Darren refers to the music in the album - indeed his entire approach to art and life - as "wrestling with opposites", we find nothing the least bit conflicted in what we hear in this lus...

earman106 - Different Skies - Arcosanitarium Every year, a group of electronic and experimental musicians gathers in the Arizona desert at the Arcosanti architectural laboratory and spends a week living and working together, rehearsing existing music and composing new music with the goal of creating a full musical program in time for a live concert at the end of the week. This festival, Different Skies, is different every year, because the participants and their backgrounds are different every y...

earman029 - Different Skies - Imaginary Spaces The second set of 'All Star Jams' for the week of Different Skies 2007 was captured in the late evening of Thursday, October 19, 2007. The twenty musicians of Different Skies were euphoric after an extremely successful set of rehearsals that day, and a powerful set of jams the previous night. More to the point, as is often seen in the latter half of the week at Different Skies, the musicians had begun to listen more and play less, to fine-tune their...

earman028 - Different Skies - Strange Lines and Distances On October 18, 2007, the twenty musicians of Different Skies 2007 came back to their rigs on the main stage at Arcosanti (www.arcosanti.org) after a lovely dinner and a few drinks each, sat down, and began to improvise. The concept of live electronic improvisation isn't new by any means; some groups do it regularly, and the 'Ambient Train Wrecks' one can find elsewhere on Earth Mantra are marvelous examples of the genre...

| Different Skies - That Merciless Sky - Different Skies
earman105 - Different Skies - That Merciless Sky On September 20, 2008, the Different Skies ensemble performed a ninety minute live concert of experimental and electronic music for an audience at Arcosanti in the Arizona desert just north of Phoenix. The more melodic and conventionally structured pieces from the show were gathered onto a CD called "The Scorpion Chronicles", but three pieces from the program were omitted for reasons of length and due to their more ambient and atmospheric nature, ...
