Ambient Soundbath Podcast

I’m really pleased to present Pastoral Memory, the excellent work of Dan Palladino. Dan first got in touch through email and as I listened to Pastoral Memory, I was struck by what a great addition this would be to the Ambient Soundbath Podcast. When I first listened to the individual tracks, how it came to… Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #126 – Dan Palladino’s Pastoral...

Look, I gotta tell you right up front, I don’t know much about this track, Anatomy of Melancholy, except that it’s strikingly beautiful, sounds like a lost Harold Budd composition and has a strange and questionable provenance. Through some research I learned that it came from a long out-of-business shop in Boston called Gargoyles, Grotesques… Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #...

I was listening to Altus’ Sleep Theory, Volume 1 and I felt like I was floating. This isn’t an uncommon experience when listening to the best of what the drone ambient genre has to offer; when the artist has resolved to focus on artistry and experience, letting the compositions be rather than shoe-horning knob twiddling… Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast Redux

It’s always my pleasure to feature the work Allister Thompson. Through the years, Allister has become a friend, collaborator and kindred spirit. I was tickled when he released Autumnal,” his first long-form ambient piece. In order to bulk up the program, I added the wonderful track “After Us” from last year’s Primordia. This is a… Read more Ambient Soundbath Pod...

The inclusion of Paul Beaudoin’s Shakti here on the Soundbath started curiously, when a variety of Paul’s tracks showed up in my inbox. Either from a series of Twitter posts or from a Reddit/Ambient conversation, Paul knew I was looking for longform works and sent me some things. I was instantly smitten with Paul’s beautiful… Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #121 –...

With episode #119, I’m really proud to present the work of Ceramic (aka Daman Hoffman). I enjoy the pure and reflective drones of Daman’s work and therefore profoundly grateful to present them and share them with you; even more exciting is that Daman allowed me to create an extended drone using one of his original… Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast #119 – Feat. Ceramic

This guided Soundbath Meditation, Calming the Inner Storm, was not originally created for the podcast. I created this as a free/pay what you want program for my Bandcamp fans, but I decided that fans of the podcast might like it, as well. If you want the music only, you can get that here, as this… Read more Ambient Soundbath Podcast – Bonus Episode – Calming the Inner Storm (Guid...

The Ambient Soundbath, Sound Meditation and what is Soundbath Meditation®?  The Ambient Soundbath has its roots in the practice of sound meditation. Sound meditation was something that I began exploring as an undergrad at Goddard College in Vermont some 25 years ago. With a combined goal of having a deeper music listening experience and pursuing… Read more What is Soundbath Meditation®?
