he's the shit yo... another one of them avant guitarists like fennesz... but a bit more grounded in beautiful bassey drones... my favourite work of his is probably his solo album Suspension... but, for those who like the improv noise thing, he's also done some superb collaborations... among them,
this one, this one, and this one...
i'm curious if anyone has heard his work as "Sun" (just found out that he put out an album with some other dude under this name on staubgold last year), or his collaboration with Johan Berthling called "my days are darker than your nights"...

looks like he'll be touring with an expanded version of Sun that includes Martin Siewert (who is also very cool)... could be pretty cool

I'd like to rerecommend suspension... on a depressed day where i've done absolutely nothing, i felt i might make myself useful by sharing with someone this beautiful work... it seems to be the only thing that fits proper today... just beautiful melancholic, guitar drones... very patient... they let you soak yourself up inside of their warm ambiguous ripples...
fakejazz review... he misspells ambarchi's name, and underrates Tim Hecker's album... but oh well... he's right about suspension...

Hmmm I might start listening to that kind of guitar drone ambient stuff. I have endless summer by fennesz but haven't given it much of a listen yet. I love sunn0))) though. Do you know them DeadEight?

i've actually not heard any sunn0))) as of yet... i always figured they must be kind of similar to the Boredoms... but now i see that they're not even japanese (which i had assumed they always were...)...what is Sunn0))) like?

I've read several reviews describing them as drone or string oriented ambient. They produce ultra low frequencies from distorted guitars. There is some digital sonic manipulation but it is not very apparent. It's basically too guys playing extremely slow doom riffs and messing with dynamics and feedbacks. Merzbow did some remixes included in their "flight of the behemoth" album. Oh and they are american

i'm not sure why i've never recommended Vigil before... it's absolutely sublime drone work... a lot of smooth chime tones stretched out into all manner of gorgeousness... this one is a must for fans of ambient drone work... Oren Ambarchi&Martin Ng- Vigil
i'd love to share it with you on slsk, but i know that a there are quite a few of you whose files i cannot browse (and thus vice versa)... try anyways...
