Subantarctic Sessions (EP)

by deepspace

supported by

Josiah Grey Mirror Sea is my #1 favorite song of Deepspace, it's the exact kind of ambient music I love the most. Completely ethereal, completely atmospheric, and it just commands you to wind down. This song has been my go to for just about any situation and it's really hard to stop listening to it. Favorite track: Mirror Sea.

Ike Hall I'm so happy to see this on Bandcamp. I've been a fan of this EP for years and could only find it on mp3s, nothing richer. Glad to able to pay back for all the enjoyment! Favorite track: Arctic Sun and Weather Experiment.

Will Indescribably beautiful. Takes me to another place entirely. Favorite track: Arctic Sun and Weather Experiment.

about

Released originally in 2008 on lunarflower, this release explored the frozen side of ambient sound. Beginning with the howling winds of Arctic Sun and Weather Experiment, a lonely piano motif merges with the surrounding frozen landscape of eerie drones. Most of the textures suggest white and cold, but there are colours to be found, like stumbling onto an oasis of flowers in the middle of an ice plateau. Subantarctic Phenomena brings a dark icy blizzard to proceedings until Mirror Sea evokes a halcyon setting of a still ocean with not a soul or any life to be seen. Crustacea Parklands goes beneath the surface to a microbial level, where strange lifeforms compete for survival.

Sublime album from one of the most consistently brilliant composers around at the moment. It exists without being obtrusive, but at the same time you are very aware of everything going on, like the low thrum of a city at midnight. Just beautiful. Paul Brandon

This album will grow on you. Listen in headphones or earbuds. It will blow your mind. Steve has so many amazing textures and dimensions on this release. It's hard to pick a favorite track. Probably in his top 5, if there is such a thing. 53Guitarman

Lapis

Serene ambient music that evokes guided meditation through the use of phase-shifting melodies, droning bass, and gauzy synth textures. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 8, 2024
