This week on Hearts of Space. It never gets old… in many ways Hearts of Space defined the territory of the slow,melodic music I spend my life making. It always feels good to be included in their programs and be part of their world.

This week on Hearts of Space: "LIGHT TIME" — electronic ambient for the season of light. With music by DAVID HELPLING and singer MIRIAM STOCKLEY, JOHAN AGEBJÖRN and singer LISA BARRA, ERIK WØLLO, TOM EATON, ROSS CHRISTOPHER, ROBERT RICH & LUCA FORMENTINI, JON HOPKINS & ÓLAFUR ARNALDS, and WILL BANGS. https://bit.ly/HoS-1386

New music for other people is always being finished here, too!

I was honored to mix and master "Lineage," the beautiful new album from Michelle Qureshi Music.

I mixed and mastered two cool new piano and keyboard projects from Alise Ashby, "Love Notes" and "Stardust."

I mastered "Singular" the gorgeous new ambient album from David Wahler.

And, of course, I mastered "The Gathering ~ Guitar," the new compilation of guitar music from Imaginary Road Studios which contains 17 tracks of really great guitar music produced over the years by combinations of William Ackerman, Corin Nelsen, and me.

All great projects for your listening pleasure!

Hi, my name is Tom and I have a problem.

New arrivals to the writing room… Hales Design Group Concept 3 speakers. Since I’ve had a writing rig set up I’ve been in search of speakers that hit the sweet spot of moving a lot of air and being accurate enough that I’m not having to fix everything when I hear it in the mastering room downstairs. I think these things are keepers, which is good because at 200lbs each these things nearly killed Ruddock Osbourne and me as we hauled them up the stairs.

Big thanks to Holt Hill Audio for the find.

I’m doing bass overdubs and mixing Will’s next record…not selling t-shirts. Sorry everyone. I’m aware someone is pretending to be me… I’ve reported it several times and hopefully the machines will make the fake me go away. Until then… back to work!

"The Hours" is five hour-long immersive and slowly evolving audio worlds. Eno said ambient music should be "as interesting as it is ignorable" and this music will absorb you or just happily keep you company depending on how much attention you give it.

"These are such beautiful sound-paintings created from the heart and soul. A must-have collection… " - Bandcamp listener
