This is a limited vinyl edition of this amazing record of ambient.

A La Izquierda Del Colibrí

From cult artist to becoming an essential musical discovery, Jorge Reyes is an example that no one discovered or owns the music beyond the writer and creator. Growing up in Mexico’s 2nd City, he spent much of his life dedicated to travelling and lear…
Invisible Cities
The 2014 debut solo collection by French wind-walker Baptiste Martin aka Les Halles remains a masterpiece of soft light and subdued yearning, woven from grainy panpipe samples, tape hiss, and spectral delay. Recorded late at night in a tiny room in Montpellier, Invisible Cities quivers like a candle by the sea, its fragile illumination flickering against an expanse of sky, silence, and sorrow.
The pieces feel both ancient and immediate, glimpsing currents behind the veil, at the threshold of pre…

Live At The Edge (LP)
D.K.’s blissed performance at intimate S. Korean venue The Edge becomes the latest LP on 12th Isle Following in a familiar vein to D.K.’s enchanted fortcoming Good Morning Tapes EP, the Paris-based producer of Vietnamese descent spies a rolling soundscape of lissom rhythmic contours and finely graded harmonic humidities across the tranquilising expanse of ‘Live at The Edge’. Everything inside feels to float gradually higher from the ground and hold a mid-air conference of chirruping avian elec…
Wetlands
Sam Mallet could have pursued a career as a French literature professor in Paris, but decided his true calling was to remain in Australia, dedicate himself to his music and find the plateau; a word he used to describe the sensory worlds residing in music. Under the influence of Brian Eno, Jon Hassell, Arvo Pärt, John Coltrane and Robert Fripp, Sam explored a wide variety of musical styles and put them to service soundtracking the time based works of his peers. He crafted spatial ambience, somber…
Traveller
**250 copies** Love All Day follows up last year’s Planetary Peace reissue with Warren Sampson’s little-known ambient masterpiece 'Traveller'. Hailing from Minnesota and inspired by the early work of Brian Eno and Jon Hassell, Sampson infused their compositional modes with a self-effacing and distinctly Upper Midwest approach that is equal parts isolated and expansive. 'Traveller' was recorded in a bedroom closet studio on a four-track TEAC reel-to-reel between the late 1970s through the mid 198…
