APK / January 2020

Ambient, drone, and experimental electronic music since 2002

Light plays upon the shimmering surface of things,
reflecting the surrounding world ...
while offering glimpses of a world within.

More immersive electro-ambient excursions into
the labyrinth of life, by The Circular Ruins.

A very consistent set of ambient works that capture a definite mood ... or do they, perhaps, create it?

Composed while in a self-imposed quarantine period during the 2020 covid crisis.

SHIPPING DELAYS

The corona virus pandemic has of course affected shipping times worldwide. We mainly ship physical albums to Europe and the USA. From Canada these would normally take a week or so to arrive. But with huge cutbacks in flights, postal staff and customs staff, and slower processing, shipping times are likely to be much longer, possibly many weeks. Please have patience. 

Five intimate and immersive soundscapes from an uncertain season.

A rich and unified collection of ambient pieces. The style is something of a cross between Nunc Stans and The Circular Ruins, and is sure to please fans of either. 

What is most like the fleeting temporality of our lives, but music. The ebb and flow. The moods. The variations on a theme. For we are time. A slowly evolving, temporary music ...
with only one end.
