Havenaire is the ambient project of John Roger Olsson from Stockholm, Sweden. Beautifully detailed, emotive synth pulses pull you in an play with your senses. His latest, Movement, on the excellent Polar Seas Recordings, is one of this year’s essential works.

On this edition a selected mix of recent works issued by the incredible Longform Editions label from Sydney. Their curatorial music practice is created to foster and celebrate immersive listening experiences for the musically adventurous. A perfect way to get lost for an hour…..

Adam Pacione is a composer, sound artist, field recorder and photographer based in Fort Worth, Texas. I’ve followed his career since the start (his Heat EP featured on a very early edition of the original broadcast of the Quiet Space) and it’s a pleasure to focus on his latest release, Mâché.

Benjamin Finger has been composing music with a healthy disregard for genres since 2007. His palette moves between psych-collages, droned out-jams, piano miniatures, classical minimalism, off-kilter pop, and an occasional stab at garbled dance music. A textural and emotionally resonant cocktail in a blurred, shimmering, and psychedelic world. His latest release is more guitar dominant, it’s our feature release on this edition of the Quiet Space.

I hope you can support this incredible new release, Healing Sounds II: A compilation for those in need’. 49 gorgeous ambient works from some of Quiet Space’s favourite composers – for an excellent cause. All proceeds will be donated to Feeding America. Feeding America is a nationwide organization that harnesses support from local communities to keep low-income families supplied with food. Right now, its biggest concern is children whose schools have closed, cutting off a source of healthy, free meals. A stunning soothing collection for troubled times.

Seamus O’Muineachain is an ambient/minimal composer and multi-instrumentalist from the sea-side town of Béal an Mhuirthead in the West of Ireland. His latest, Blue Moon Set is our focus on this edition of the Quiet Space, plus new releases from Halftribe and Endless Melancholy on the excellent Sound in Silence imprint.

It’s always a pleasure to share with you new releases from Shimmering Moods Records, who abide by the creed “into the far reaches of the imagination”. A special Quiet Space blend with contribtions from Sebastian Paul, Jurko Haltuu, Zoltan Fesco & Xu(e).
