Two different movie soundtracks from William Ryan Fritch, a massive 43-track game soundtrack from Ben Lukas Boysen & Sebastian Plano, and Kryshe’s music inspired by the 1915 silent movie version of Alice in Wonderland.
Twin Peaks inspired music: dark jazz from doom-crooners Dale Cooper Quartet & Dictaphones, and three compilation albums that start off a sixteen-part (!) series curated by Indie Rock Magazine.
“Dream All The Dark Away” – a kind of ‘mission statement’ for the new DreamScenes series: broadcast every second sunday of the month on the Dutch Concertzender. Available on-demand worldwide after the broadcast from the concertzender website and via www.dreamscenes.nl
The Los Angeles Percussion Quartet presents a stunning double album with 84 minutes of contemporary compositions for percussion.

In this May edition of DreamScenes, you can expect a bit of contemporary classical, a bit of piano, a bit of jazz , some drones and (of course) some ambient soundscapes too, to bring you a small hour of quiet (when needed).
High Plains (Mark Bridges and Scott ‘Loscil’ Morgan) present their album Cinderland on the Kranky label;
CEEYS (Daniel & Sebastian Selke) start their Concrete Fields trilogy exploring their Berlin birthground.
On ‘Fiction – Non-Fiction’, Olivier Alary presents a multi-faceted overview of his recent soundtrack compositions – with a special unreleased track called ‘Discipline’ as additional bonus listening on Ambientblog.
Next to that, Selffish (yes: two ff’s) presents his new album on the Serein label, which is every bit as beautiful as you’ve come to expect from this label’s output.
