Ambientblog proudly presents a new “Guest mix”, contributed by Bartosz Dziadosz a.k.a. Pleq.
After reviewing his latest releases, I did not hesitate when Bartosz asked me if he could contribute a mix to the ambientblog podcasts.
This Pleq Ambientblog mix is not a mix of his own music, but a mix of Various Artists that gives great insight in the kind of music that inspires Pleq.
It kicks in fairly heavy with the high pitched noise of Go Koyashiki’s “Silhouette”, which when it suddenly drops feels like it has prepared your mind to ‘open up’ for the sounds to follow.
Bartosz’ mix balances the almost industrial electronic sounds with the more organic romanticism of (for example) Library Tapes, Max Richter and Spyweirdos.
Before closing the mix, two previously unreleased tracks are included: a collaboration with Hakobune and another with Natalia Noeila Siebula.

Great stuff. I’ve got Pleq doing a production showcase on Tuesday next week for my MANTIS Radio show.
Glad to see others getting in on his sound work.
Nice work ambientblog.

Absolutely stunning. I loved every second of it
IF YOU LISTEN to just one mix this week, let it be this one. If you don’t have the time just now, jot it down, bookmark it, set it as your homepage. Headphones or room filling speakers please, laptop or desktop speakers just won’t cut it.
Well done on an enjoyable and interesting mix. Always good to come across (for me) new people in a good setting. Paul
Sometimes dark and spooky, but mostly soothing, a very nice mix with lots of gentle piano and just enough dissonance to keep you on your toes.
