“As astonishingly beautiful as it is serene. Listening to the album is simply like being in a waking dream once the sun has gone down” – The Doughnut
“Essential listening. A true example of the myriad forms of ambient music ” – Louder Than War
Treat yourself this Spring to the exquisite sequel to the first amazingly successful Ambient Zone compilation, Ambient Zone 2! This is Just Music’s second beautiful journey into the relaxing and immersive world of ambient electronica. With exquisite contributions from Jon Hopkins, Marconi Union and Dan Arborise, the album also features new and exclusive atmospheric down tempo and tranquil tune.
The journey opens with the cinematic elegance of Digitonal’s Sentinel, flowing mesmerically on to Afterhere’s captivating On Wings, from there meandering into the sultry beauty of Chris Coco’s New Age Sunrise. The dreamy piano of Jon Hopkins’ bewitching Autumn Hill then takes its hold, closely followed by the dark mystery of Sam Thomas’s Seeing or Agreeing. A pivotal point in the album is Loner’s My Kingdom, Your Sunset with its enigmatic vocals, after which Echaskech’s deep and emotionally resonant Caeleste and the tranquility of Xspance’s The Last Sunrise roll hypnotically on into the idiosyncratic keys of Opdot’s Piano Monody, the gentle beauty of Marconi Union’s Transient and finally, the beautiful last two tunes, Laki Mera’s mysterious Talk To Me and the acoustic innocence of Dan Arborise’s Paths. The album is mixed by Chris Coco. The serene and elegant journey is then at an end, leaving the listener with the desire to listen all over again….

And look at all beings with compassionate eyes.”
