Shapes & Traces

by Skyminds

supported by

goatsheadstew Outstanding otherworldy synthesis of spectral electronic ambience with acoustic folk invocations. A rich palate of sounds. Favorite track: Soft Landing.

Lost Tribe Sound Hypnotic drumming and loose melodies that slowly worm their way into your psyche. Has a bit of that 90's Chicago underground rock vibe going for it, some of the unique interplay between rhythm and synth recalls Skyphone, and when the vocals enter I get a strong hint of Children of the Wave (for those who remember them).

ZRoach lovely, peaceful, atmospheric tape Favorite track: Beneath the Lake.

TheSlowMusicMovement Turn on & tune in to Skyminds delightfully disorientating, navel gazing plod around the dreamy acid folk, opiated melancholy & kosmische multiverse.

cirrusoxide A sonic salve for these times...

This album makes you feel like a better world is possible and somewhat close at hand. It isn't, clearly, we're stuck in dystopia, but it's so beautiful to dream. Fabio Viola

Hypnotic, cathartic, a rising sun over the wreckage of the night. These electric explorations invite reflection, conjure daydreams. A great unfurling. Admo

I love music that just keeps on going. Lying on my sofa, looking out of the window while listening. Very cliché I know. But that's still my favorite way of listening to music. Glass
