	Tribe of Astronauts - Percolations [wh064] - Tribe of Astronauts The inscrutable Tribe of Astronauts is a collective of varying number. Little can be known about the Tribe of Astronauts because they hide behind digital masks. Percolations may or may not be the first Tribe of Astronauts release, because they eschew the idea of chronology. However, this much is known about them: they care about you. They like you and want to enrich you with sounds. This unusual experimental work is a group of blended variations on a simple structure and limited set of tones and...

	Mystified - Constant [wh057] - Mystified Despite being "minimal" this new opus by Mystified is also full of subtlety and warmth. In a nutshell it is a long-form dronescape, lightly seasoned with dimly audible sparkles, tones and harmonics. The central theme is pleasantly massaging industrial hum, with a bit of distortion and crackle in it. Produced by Thomas Park, 2005. Cover art by Thomas Park. If you like the Webbed Hand Rain series, as well as the other excellent ambient releases on this label, then Constant will be your cup of tea...

	Mika Björklund - Risen [wh066] - Mika Björklund The album Risen consists a pair of long-form works by Mika Björklund, a young Finnish sound artist who has previously released Nocturne [wh054] on Webbed Hand. This is definitely headphones-in-the-dark music -- real introvert listening. These two tracks begin in a similar manner, but soon diverge and express many different moods and textures. Risen "The concept is to play with different kinds of ambient music, I've tried to get a feeling of progression from dark to light, past to future and so ...

	Tribe of Astronauts - Remote Missive [wh067] - Tribe of Astronauts wh067 Tribe of Astronauts - Remote Missive An hour-long transmission from the celestial entity known as Tribe of Astronauts. A pleasing wash of white noises, drones, and other soundscape elements. Are you familiar with the concept of astronaut contraband? Because of weight and spatial limitations in space flight, astronauts are generally forbidden from bringing along personal items. Only what is essential to the mission is allowed, and everything else is contraband... Keywords: Minimalism; Drones; Electro-organic; Dark Meditative Downloads: 1,567 Average rating: (4 reviews)
	Djinnestan - Purr [wh020] - C.P. McDill Purr is a 76 minute ambient track intended to be played at low volume as background ambience, preferably as you go to sleep. It generates a warm and cozy feeling, like having a cat purring next to your head. With a high fidelity stereo system possessing good bass response, some of the infrasonic qualities will come through, thus adding to the trancey and hypnotic effect of the work. It is my feeling, based on some study of infrasound, that what one hears as a cat's purr is only part of the spect...

	Mystified - Wind Hands [wh032] - Mystified Wind Hands (Webbed Hand 032) Resonant atmospherics and sultry droning themes drift on a wind of gusting low-end breezes. Thomas Park, aka Mystified, continues to bless Webbed Hand with his high-quality creations. Personnel: Recorded and Produced by Thomas Park. Additional Credit: "Thanks to Chris Phinney of Mental Anguish for his great drone sound".

	Tribe of Astronauts - Rain 2 [wh031] - Tribe of Astronauts Seismic, elemental, oceanic, liquid. There are numerous adjectives that can well describe this subtle 72-minute composition without giving away all of its secrets. Shifting drones and drips and drops conceal deeper activities. Tribe of Astronauts' second Rain album continues in the tradition of Webbed Hand's popular series of CD-length ambient soundscapes, intended for quiet listening. Rain is a series of conceptual CDs produced under the auspices of Webbed Hand Records...

	Mark Hamn - Prefixes [wh053] - Mark Hamn In "prefixes" the name of each track literally comes from prefixes of the english language, but don't let that mislead you. The prefixes only tell you a little about what to expect from each track. Under the surface there are tectonic movements, volcanism. This music has a geological vibe, whether by design or chance. This is high-quality sound art that really deserves close and repeated listenings to be best appreciated...

	Djinnestan - Selling the Wind [wh016] - C.P. McDill Djinnestan is the quieter spawn of Saluki Regicide. Selling the Wind is a collection of tranquil ambient constructions which have been derived from more "complicated" tracks among my other recording projects. It has something in common with the Rain compositions as well, in that they are mellow studies in repetition with variation, but these differ in their brevity. As a collection, they are a pleasure to listen to...

	Tribe of Astronauts - Rain 1 [wh027] - Tribe of Astronauts Rain is a series of conceptual CDs produced under the auspices of Webbed Hand Records. Each Rain is a CD-length ambient recording ideal for listening to while relaxing, working, or socializing. Typically the recordings in this series are minimalistic soundscapes, with motifs played out cyclically and repetitively, rather than progressively, in order to induce hypnotic states.

	Djinnestan - Rain 1 [wh028] - C.P. McDill The Webbed Hand "Rain" series in now graced by a contribution from Djinnestan. Much like the shorter works of Djinnestan, this 74-minute piece is subtle and enchanted. As if in a dream you find yourself strolling in a fairytale forest, dark and misty, peopled by the figments of childhood imaginings. This album is ideal for meditation, trance-work, and quiet activities. It is recommended that you play it at low volume, as it is meant to be listened to peripherally, not directly...

	Various Artists - Far Afield: A Webbed Hand Compilation [wh055] Somewhere in the spectrum between Musique Concrete and Phonography, is a vast gray area that is disowned and disputed by either side. This compilation treats this no-man's land as its playground. Field recordings they are, with some processing, but not just walls of rhythmic noise. Sounds of nature, sounds of the city, using the non-instrumental rhythms and melodies of the source recording as the focal points, coaxing the music and beauty out of unplanned, un-orchestrated events...
