Welcome to RadioSilence! This is a new Electronic Ambient project from Andy Pickford. This kind of music is perfect for relaxation and meditation… or in my case “napping”, in which case I’d say it’s ideal for soothing the furrowed brow of many a grumpy old git!
If you are familiar with my “Harmonics In The Silence” series, you’ll already know of my leanings in ambient direction. It’s become my second musical passion at this time. Only, with these works I really don’t want to hear myself either over-tracking or over-producing in any way. Rather hard for a fidgety non-minimalist like myself! I’ve listened to some popular ambient works which you could quite literally make a cup of tea, take a dump and feed the cat to and they still won’t have got anywhere by the time you get back. I don’t have anything like that kind of attention span; I was raised on 1970’s orange squash ffs!! Thus, I insist on reasonable development, nice harmonics and resonances, not so much atonality. I can’t entirely remove rhythm from the equation, so I’m allowing quiet, bare-bones sequence/percussion elements. Nowt that ain’t been done before I’m sure! The main ambient tracks themselves are self-generating and based on random arpeggiation slowed down to the point of full caffeine withdrawal. The devil then, is in the detail and I really do like these kind of works, because even I get to experience surprise at the outcome of these things, if surprise is the right word. And of course, it’s gotta be fun.

One of the best electronic CDs ever. This is the debut from Pickford and he composes tracks in the Blade Runner style with his own melodies and rhythms. Very catchy and brilliant.

Here the last copy!
