Award-winning composer Robot Koch has released “Post String Theory” (Foam and Sand Rework) today, which is the 3rd single leading up to his new ambient rework of his latest album „The Next Billion Years“. Just as the upcoming album the track bridges modern classical and ambient sounds. Koch removed the original’s pulsating electronics and crescendo strings, focusing instead on highlighting subtle melody fragments. “It’s an exhale. It could underscore the credits of a movie that took an unexpected but beautiful turn in the end,” says Koch
Meredi has released „Watching You Waltz“, which is the second single from her upcoming album „Some Other Place“. „Watching You Waltz“ reveals the final theme from Meredi’s song „Watching You“ from her latest album Trance.
