Generations
"Generations" by Amsterdam based artist Origin ST is an introspective exploration of the various emotions which he went through during the pregnancy and birth of his first child - fear of change, anxiety, surprise, excitement, longing often all happening at the same time." - Origin ST
Live at Black Circle
Around this time last year, Marc Ertel joined the stage with the PITP brethren James Bernard, zakè, and From Overseas for a live performance at the Gothic Chapel in Indianapolis, US which was eventually released as a limited vinyl LP. Since then, Ertel has been quietly working on new solo arrangements along with new compositions that will be part of an imminent Dawn Chorus and the Infallible Sea record.
Just a few months after the Gothic Chapel performance, Ertel was invited to play a live set a…
Uoiea
Uoiea is a collection of meditative and textured minimalist ambient drone pieces created using only a Squier Bass VI and guitar pedals. Where in most of my compositions I tend to add layers and fill as many frequencies as possible, I opted instead to embrace the space between notes, the subtleness of the Bass VI's highest tones, and the general feeling of drifting slowly. The track names are nonsense pseudowords - descriptors of feelings and experiences that do not exist. This is an album for fl…
Hypnotism
"hypnotism I" has held a special place on my hard drive since shortly after the release of mountain ambient IV. Like the piece itself, it evolved slowly and delicately. Each layer pulled me deeper into this hypnotic state of composition, listening, and re-composition that lasted for several months. Sometimes it would sit for weeks, patiently, before I added another small piece. The end result was so powerful, especially after such a long time, that I started putting everything new next to it in …

Retrospective [2019-2024]
Since its foundation, Indianapolis-based Healing Sound Propagandist has quietly built a catalog of nearly a hundred releases by a cadre of emerging and established artists, specializing in undiluted doses of textured drone and experimental ambient. To commemorate this prolific run, Retrospective [2019-2024] collects 76 standout tracks over five hours, from the warm tonal blankets of James Bernard (“Never Alone”), to the wispy, boreal loops of UK’s Pallette (“Für What”) and the womb-like warble o…
Clouds Without Water
Clouds Without Water emerged from the chance meeting of two ambient experimentalists who played at an electronic music festival as solo artists and discovered a musical affinity. They decided to collaborate long distance during the loneliest months of the pandemic lockdowns, sending tracks to each other without plans or discussion, only wordless questions buried in the music. These are the answers they fashioned. Clouds Without Water bridges the gap between granularity and haze, grit and smoothn…
Undisclosed Fields Vol.1
Almøst Silent is the alias of G.Teixeira, a multi-faceted sound artist based in France. ‘Undisclosed Fields Vol.1’ marks his debut release on Healing Sound Propagandist which encompasses eight movements, along with six lovely reworks to accompany the album as a whole. Undisclosed Fields Vol.1 is a densely textural affair that explores multi-sound illustrations with an array of consonant forms and patterns of fleetingly beautiful melodies. The sharply focused efforts of these movements are truly …
Umbilical
“Umbilical was made remotely between Japan and Brazil, which are on opposite sides of the Earth. Even though there is a very long distance, our collaboration became very intimate and close; we named the album “Umbilical” to reflect this connection. The album starts with Michi, which means path or road, embarking on a journey to another place before ending with Endless Urbia where we eventually come back to reality.” – Ayami Suzuki & Carlos Ferreira
