“”If everything isn’t black & white, I say, “why the hell not”… – John Wayne
“Smell the sea, and feel the sky, Let your soul and spirit fly.”
“Every day I wake up and smile,
Twenty four hours lie ahead of me.
I vow to live each moment fully
And look at all beings with compassionate eyes.”
“I see ambient music as a positive force in our world. It can’t change it but it might be strong enough to inspire people, to help them heal and to spread optimism.”
Today on World Sleep Day 2024 we’re introducing Deep Ambient Sleep – a 24/7 livestream on YouTube featuring ambient tracks in our catalogue, including songs by Jon Hopkins, Marconi Union, Luca Longobardi, Digitonal and many, many more.
