Niscera - After the Rain

'After the Rain' the debut single by Niscera is now playing on M.P.R Chill.

 

 

Release date: Jun 26, 2026

"After the Rain" invites listeners into the quiet moments after loss — when someone is no longer beside you, yet their presence seems to remain everywhere. It is a song about memories that linger, empty spaces that carry meaning, and the fragile process of learning to live with what has changed.

Through an intimate emotional journey, the song creates a space where sadness, reflection, and hope can exist together. It captures the feeling of looking back on someone who mattered deeply and discovering that love and memory can still bring comfort.

Niscera - "I built this song around a single feeling — the moment you reach for someone who is no longer there. I wanted the music to capture what grief feels like in the quiet hours of the night. Not dramatic. Not overwhelming. Just present. Every note has space around it, allowing the silence to breathe as much as the sound."

About Niscera

Niscera is an independent cinematic dark soul project exploring deeply human emotions through music and visual storytelling. Every lyric, creative choice, and artistic direction is shaped around a singular vision: creating songs that connect with personal experiences and shared emotions.

The emotion, intention, and story behind each song remain at the heart of the project.

Across twelve releases arriving every three weeks through March 2027, Niscera unfolds a complete artistic journey exploring loss, remembrance, and the gradual rediscovery of hope.

Release date: Jul 7, 2026

Marck Plain releases 'Lucid Dream' A cinematic electronic instrumental shaped by dreamy synths, subtle vocal textures and the atmosphere of a late-night drive.

Rather than relying on lyrics, Lucid Dream uses melody, texture and gradual movement to tell its story. The result is a piece designed for focused headphone listening, late-night journeys and visual storytelling.

His music focuses on mood, melodic synthesis and cinematic storytelling, combining electronic production with a strong visual imagination.

Ship Says Om - Ditt Hjarta

From the new EP 'Djuphjärtad' by Ship Says Om & Emma Lucia, the single 'Ditt Hjärta' is now playing on M.P.R Ambient.

 

 

Release date: Jul 16, 2026

Djuphjärtad (deep-hearted) (released 7/17/26 on Native Cat Recordings) is a collaborative EP from Swedish singer Emma Lucia and ambient project Ship Says Om (Jenny Gillespie Mason). Friends in the Berkeley, California music community, the two artists began working together after Lucia invited Mason to help shape several of her songs into a more atmospheric, exploratory form.

The EP moves between two currents: intimate songs of romantic anticipation (“Keep Me” and “Feel Your Eyes”) and elemental sound meditations such as the Swedish-language “Ditt Hjärta” and the wordless “Water Prayer.” Mason’s production draws heavily from found sound—birdsong, wind, thunder, rustling trees, owls, and the steady rhythm of oars moving through water—woven with ambient synths, acoustic guitar, piano, and percussion.

The result blends Lucia’s luminous voice with Ship Says Om’s immersive sonic textures, evoking the quiet expanses of lakes and forests while tracing the emotional thresholds of new love. The music carries echoes of experimental ambient and modern composition, recalling the sensibilities of Stina Nordenstam, Hiroshi Yoshimura, Philip Glass, and The Books.

Serge Volant - Hosono rented a place

From the new album 'Everyday is all there is' by Serge Volant the track 'Hosono rented a place' is now playing on M.P.R Ambient.

 

 

Release date: Jul 10, 2026

Lebanese artist and composer Serge Volant announces the release of his debut album, “Everyday is all there is”, arriving on August 7.The album itself is rooted in experimental, ambient and cinematic electronic composition, shaped by field recordings and modular synthesizers.

Beirut remains a central reference point, with Serge incorporating audio recordings from across the city. Rawness, density, and quiet melancholy emerge as a result. The record echoes a melancholy that Serge closely associates with Beirut, capturing the tension between nostalgia for the city's past and a connection to its present. Rather than romanticizing the hardships the country continues to endure, the album finds beauty and meaning in everyday life.

Other parts of the album draw from the emotions and experiences of solo travel, exploring new places and, in turn, discovering new aspects of oneself. These moments are captured through field recordings collected along the way, from the birdsong surrounding the CAMP residency in Aulus-les-Bains in the French Pyrenees to the sounds of Corazón, the music and creative hub in La Plata, Argentina. Through these sonic landscapes, the album documents both physical journeys and personal discovery.

Fine feathers sets the tone for the album. Its title, drawn from the phrase “fine feathers don’t make fine animals,” reflects a tension between appearance and essence. I too, will pray for your god is inspired by the unexpected connections formed with strangers along the road. Through these brief but intense encounters, different belief systems become less abstract and more deeply human. The piece reflects the lasting impression of carrying a fragment of someone else's worldview with you, a quiet gesture of respect, empathy, and shared humanity that remains long after the encounter itself has passed.

In its final moments, the album turns inward. A recorded phone recording made after attending a night out with Beirut appears unpolished, left intentionally intact, closing the work with an openness that resists resolution.

The process of releasing the album has not been without difficulties. In a moment marked by ongoing instability and war, Serge has repeatedly reconsidered the timing of the release, questioning the role of artistic output in the face of crisis. Ultimately, the decision to proceed stems from a belief that creation remains a form of resistance and self expression rather than distraction. The album does not attempt to resolve the regional context, but to exist within it, holding space for memory, emotion, and shared experience.

Healing Vibes Collective - Walking in a Painting

Healing Vibes Collective Releases Cinematic Instrumental Single 'Walking in a Painting', now playing on M.P.R Chill.

A slow-building musical journey blending expressive guitars, organic instrumentation, modern textures, and crystal singing bowls.

Healing Vibes Collective has released “Walking in a Painting,” a cinematic instrumental single now available on all major streaming platforms. The track was released on June 26, 2026 through Healing Vibes Music and distributed by Symphonic.

Created for reflective walking, focused listening, creative work, and moments of calm, the single reflects Healing Vibes Collective’s approach: music first, with healing intention thoughtfully embedded in the sound.

Oak7ree - Blossom

The newly released single titled 'Blossom' by oak7ree is now playing on M.P.R Chill.

 

 

Release date: Jul 4, 2026

Blossom is an instrumental song, but despite not having lyrics there are a lot of thoughts and emotions behind it. Just like a flower blooms into beauty, it’s about changing as a person and becoming more of who you are really meant to be. Reaching your potential, being more truthfully yourself and finding your power. Blossoming in a way, shedding the old, the broken and insecure, and growing into a more mature and refined self.

Oak7ree

"As an artist, most of my music is a way for me to try to move past depression, the never ending feeling of not being enough and feeling like everything I do is meaningless and empty. I’ve always wanted to be creative and create, to take the pain and hardship of everyday life and make something meaningful. I’ve seen this as my purpose long before I started making music, I would write and work on ideas for stories, long and short, characters and settings hoping one day to write and direct movies. When I started making music, I discovered that instead of going weeks and months without progress, I found the energy and the joy of sitting with Ableton and experimenting every single day, sometimes for up to 10 hours at a time. Over the weeks and months since starting I have come a long way and learned a lot, and a lot of what I’ve learned has culminated in this track, Blossom. If I want this track to say or do anything, it’s to inspire people to live authentically and trust the process, despite how confusing it may be at times. If you’re at a bad place in life, know that it gets better and that you have a purpose and a part to play in life".

VPC Ensemble - Fleeting

VPC Ensemble debuts on M.P.R Ambient with a track titled 'Fleeting' taken from the album 'Life Is a Strange Loop'.

 

 

Release date: May 29, 2026

VPC Ensemble Channels the Cosmic Vertigo of New Parenthood into “Psychedelic Ambient Space Jazz”

A recursive meditation on human consciousness and universal patterns — the first half of a two-part psychedelic ambient space jazz record from the NYC collective led by Dash Lunde.

While watching a new life begin, Dash Lunde saw his own existence fold back on itself. This quiet vertigo of new parenthood serves as the creative spark for VPC Ensemble’s debut, Life Is a Strange Loop: Side A. Inspired by Douglas Hofstadter’s theories of consciousness, the record is a high-energy ritual of human presence, transforming existential questions into a "strange loop" of immersive, intentional sound.

“I was becoming a father while making this album, and there’s a vertigo about watching life begin—seeing the phase you just went through from the outside,” says Lunde. “It’s about cycles inside cycles: repeating yet always transforming, the same and yet completely unique.”

VPC Ensemble

VPC Ensemble is a living collective of New York improvisers that creates a textural sanctuary where ambient stillness meets the searching lyricism of space rock. By weaving together electric viola, flute, and samplers with wordless vocal textures and movement, the group evokes a universal mind imagining itself. This is psychedelic ambient space jazz built for the deep-listening lineage of artists like Laraaji and Harold Budd—a necessary ritual in an age of digital isolation.

The experience extends into immersive live shows where movement-reactive visuals and somatic bodywork invite the audience to harmonize with the ensemble. This recursive feedback loop of music, dance, and light transforms the performance into a space for embodied meditation and shared consciousness.

Life Is a Strange Loop: Side A is streaming now as a statement to sit and deeply listen to a full, continuous piece of music. The second half of the record, a vinyl edition, and limited-edition Loop Talisman jewelry follow later this summer.

Dan Van Daan - Oh... The Ocean

The Summer single by Dan Van Daan titled 'OH… The Ocean' is now playing on M.P.R Chill.

 

 

Release date: Jul 2, 2026

With 'OH… The Ocean' the brand-new single for the summer 2026 — the lounge project Dan Van Daan is back from his sabbatical. Summer is really kicking off, and Dan Van Daan is captivated by the ocean that surrounds his home, Dyade Island.

This vocal track marks Dan Van Daan’s comeback with his signature quality after more than a yearlong hiatus. Once again, the result is a genuine, meditative downtempo track.

An album is not planned for this year; Dan Van Daan is still gathering new ideas and energy for his next releases.

The current single is available in the usual stores and streaming platforms. The track is also released on Apple Music as a Dolby Atmos mix in 3D audio. 3D audio releases are standard practice for Dan Van Daan.

About Dan Van Daan

Dan Van Daan is an art figure: It all started with a computer game: Beach Life. The soundtrack is outstanding; especially Pacific Memories by Fenomenon. This piece is based on only two chords. But it has strong harmonies, brilliant / jazzy guitar solos and strong melodies.

The idea came up to adopt this concept and to create an own version of it. Because of the only two chord based harmonic structure, we call this style Dyade (means duality). So the debut album is called Dyade. Dan Van Daan and his work is a tribute to Fenomenon and the other acts of sophisticated lounge music.

As home and residence Dan Van Daan serves the island: Dyade Island. Of course, a prototype of the Caribbean, Balearic or Canary holiday island and purely fictional. The island can be explored on the websites of Dan Van Daan.
