The record will be played the day before on StillStream internet radio. This 3rd episode will be the last of the Winter series, and from what the artist is saying the music is much more symphonic and is using real instruments, while still being “Ambient”.

Service message: About the RSS feed

I’ve change the RSS feed provider  for the Ambient blog. I’ve moved it from Feedburner to Google.

That means that if you suscribed to it a long time ago and you’re one of the 5/6 people that are still using the feed at “http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheAmbientBlog” you should change it.

The correct address is anyway always on the blog, at :

http://ambient.bourzeix.com/feed

Thanks for checking and changing it eventually, the old one will be deleted in a few days !

DaBourz on Last.fm : Ambient & Berlin School music

Warning: I’m speaking about myself here ! ;-)

Well, I finally decided to put online part of my music. Some pieces were already available via some  “Ambient” compilations on the Internet and some are still only available via a record company.

As I still not chosen how I wanted to distribute my music I ended up on Last.fm because they offer a solution for artists that seduce me at the moment: You can save your tracks their site and give the opportunity for everyone to listen to them in their entirely without allowing the download. For the moment it’s what I want.

So, if you love “Ambient” music with some “Berlin School” spirit, a little dark and cinematic, this is for you!

The album “Early Works” brings together (well when I’ll finish uploading everything) music made before 2007, I think a dozen pieces in total, a kind of best-of of the old!

So come on, listen to it, tag, comment, share, be social!
