“For me, Ambient Music is more than just background music. I find myself listening on a daily basis in order to decompress after long days and stressful times. I also feel that it is one of the most interesting and creative types of music around at the moment as you can often find compositions that are both emotive and challenging.”
Stanleystanley is the alias that electronic music producer and short film composer Jordan Russell Hall uses for releasing ambient music. His earlier track released by us was the beautifully composed ‘beside myself’. [link]
With ‘You Could Stobe’ a single beam of light seems to grow, a kaleidoscope of swirling melodic textures and colours, seeming to draw you into a mesmeric fusion of warmth and sonic beauty - this is ambient music for the soul and enlightenment for the spirit
“`The rising chord progression and bright arpeggiated synths allow the composition to build consistently towards a bittersweet ending.”
Jordan looks towards the more unsettling side of ambient music by taking influences from outside the realm of calming or meditative music. Influenced by electronics producers such as Oneohtrix Point Never, Actress and Nathan Micay, he chooses to use synthetic voices, pulsing syncopated rhythms and glass-like synths to create music that is unquiet yet still warm and ambient.
