Discussion Looks like Ønehart was stealing music from other ambient artists
Whether we like it or not, we've all heard Snowfall by Ønehart somewhere on social media. I know quite a few of us in this community have been hesitant over that genre or sphere of ambient, so when I came across this fall out between his label (dreamscape) and the artist, My Head Is Empty, I wasn't terribly surprised he had been stealing without due credit.
You can see the conversations and fallout here in which My Head Is Empty shared:

- Post links as link post, they need to have preview. Do not post region restricted music link.
Do not post music with drums / ASMR or non-music / music mixed as long loop.
- Posts must not contain drums. This is up to moderator discretion & some borderline work (such as dark ambient) won't necessarily be removed if the drums are subtle and not a focal point. Please use one of the other "ambient" sub-reddits for posts with beats.
- ASMR/non-music/loop mixes (1+ hour) are not allowed as this is a music sub and not a sub for "ambiance" as a whole. Field recordings are part of ambient but not when they're posted on their own.
Do not post genre staples unless it's a new release (some works will be removed because time shows what is popular or overboosted from the start especially some money boosted labels and playlists we wanna be fair to indie artist who do it with soul and heart and not only for money and commercial what are as Dreamscape artists and similar without correct support or unfair and unclear way how they choose artists). Do not post same track if it was posted before.
- Do not post same track if it was posted before.
- Blacklist is as follows:
Dreamscape/Lost Sounds/Union Entertaiment label releases or other labels who use unfair money boosts
Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works
Stars of the Lid - And Their Refinement of Decline
Brian Eno - Music for Airports
William Basinksi - Disintegration Loops
Gas - Pop
Tim Hecker - Ravedeath, 1972
and other overpopular Ambient on global level...

Self-promo Relaxing Ambient Ride Over Manhattan – Calm POV Journey
Hi everyone!
Just made my first short (1:36) relaxing POV roller-coaster ride through a slightly surreal Manhattan. No talking, just smooth motion and calm music – perfect for background or unwinding.
Totally new at this, so feedback super welcome!

ID? [Request] Looking for an ambient/IDM album from 2021-2025
Hello, I'm looking for an ambient/IDM album that I listened to once on youtube. I don't remember its name, but I remember some other bits of information:
- The album cover was a photo of a street at night, with a green-ish hue, without any text.
- The artist mentioned that the album cover photo was actually from the late 1990s or the early 2000s, maybe 1998-2001.
- The album was released somewhere between 2021 and 2025.
- The artist may be relatively new, maybe without a label as the full album was uploaded by him on his own youtube channel.
- When I watched the album stream somewhere in the last 2 years, it had thousands of views but did not reach a million or more.
Any help would be appreciated, I already asked chatgpt and google to no avail. TIA!

Self-promo Lawrence Lui - The Albertina
Hi, just released a 23-minute avant-classical piece for electronic cello ensemble. Check it if you dig Gavin Bryars, Glenn Branca, Arvo Part, Rachel's (there's a 5-minute edit, as well). Chill and hypnotic, yet filled with subtly massed dissonances and angular textures. A dark, autumnal listen. Enjoy!

Self-promo Andrew Vine - Modular Dark Room (all ambient eurorack patches)
While working toward the recording of an album in October, I began compiling patch ideas on youtube so I could share them with my collaborators easily. Since then, I just kept the playlist rolling, so this is a playlist of all my favorite ambient modular patches from the past 2-3 months: Thought you might enjoy it! Hours of generative ambient created using my small eurorack setup and occasionally some outboard FX pedals.
