Release date: Feb 28, 2025

The artist 'Aaltus Felix' has just released a new single after a long hiatus, "The Light" expresses the feelings of someone floating off as their life draws to a close and they leave the Earth.

About Aaltus Felix 

"Music has always been a passion of mine. Not just listening to the melody, lyrics or rhythm, but to feel the mood it can create. That is why I wanted to make my own music. I wanted to be able to create a feeling for the listener that they might have never felt before."

"I started taking piano lessons when I was 7 years old and creating music has always been a part of my daily life. However it was music I just kept in my head. When I had the privilege of getting software and the right tools, I could make those sounds come to life."

"Every day is a learning experience. It is what you do with that experience that counts. To learn from it, and to try and be the happiest person you can be."

Releases March 14, 2025

Slowcraft welcomes HERE to the label with A Quiet Unease, a nuanced seven-track collection of atmospheric electronic ambient.

1. Hiding Light 03:17
2. Unheard, Unseen 03:47

Featuring on Moon Phase Radio is the upcoming album release by Alien Signal entitled 'Whispers from distant Suns'

Vinyl Release Date: mid March 2025
Download Release Date: April 2025

After a 30-year interstellar silence, the enigmatic producer Alien Signal - pioneering alias of Italian electronic composer Alex Silvi - re-emerges with Whispers from Distant Suns, a transcendent odyssey that bridges retro-futurism and modern electronica. Hailed as a magnum opus, this album transcends genre boundaries, captivating ambient purists, downtempo aficionados, and even experimental listeners with its hypnotic fusion of analog warmth and digital precision.

Cosmic Tapestry of Sound

Drawing comparisons to Vangelis’ Antarctica and Alpha - but reimagined through a 21st century lens - Whispers from Distant Suns marries nostalgic synth textures with cutting-edge production. Silvi’s mastery of melody shines through in tracks like “Stardust Memories” and “Fragile Eden” where shimmering arpeggios and celestial pads drift over robotic, glitch-infused drum patterns and sparse, meditative percussion. The result is a paradox: a retro-futuristic soundscape that feels simultaneously ancient and alien, familiar yet unexplored.

The Vinyl Experience

Pressed on heavyweight vinyl, the album’s physical release amplifies its immersive qualities. The gatefold sleeve, adorned with surrealist astrophotography and metallic foiling, mirrors the music’s cosmic ethos. Side A leans into Balearic serenity, with sun-dappled grooves and aquatic synth ripples, while Side B delves into darker, more experimental terrain - think Aphex Twin’s Selected Ambient Works colliding with the organic rhythms of Jon Hopkins.

Maturity in Motion

This album is a testament to Silvi’s evolution. Tracks like “Seeds Of Light” and “Message from Andromeda Galaxy” showcase his refined ear for dynamics, balancing silence and sound with surgical precision. Vintage drum machines spar with glitches, while field recordings of crashing waves and interstellar static blur the line between Earth and cosmos. The closing track, “The Star Charts We Shared” crescendos into a 6-minute ambient requiem, leaving listeners suspended in a state of weightless awe.

Final Transmission

Whispers from Distant Suns is more than an album - it’s a transcendent odyssey. Spanning time, space, and the artist’s own creative evolution, this immersive work invites listeners to lose themselves in its ebb and flow. Designed for moments both intimate and expansive, its balearic-tinged atmospheres resonate equally through dawn-lit Mediterranean terraces or the solitary glow of headphones in darkness. These are compositions that pulse, morph, and haunt the air long after the final note fades. A living soundscape meant to accompany life’s quiet revelations and clandestine joys—a soundtrack to your most personal moments, crafted as what the artist calls ‘private dance music.’

Tailored for the Discerning Listener

Whispers from Distant Suns is designed with the true connoisseur in mind. This album is a must-have for:

• Vinyl Collectors & Audiophiles: Those who value the warmth and tactile experience of heavyweight, limited edition pressings.

• Electronic Ambient and Downtempo Fans: Listeners who appreciate immersive soundscapes that merge retro analog charm with modern digital innovation.

• Retro-Futurism Enthusiasts: Fans of pioneering artists like Vangelis, Boards of Canada, and early Warp Records who seek music that bridges nostalgic synth textures with futuristic experimentation.

• Experimental Music Explorers: Individuals drawn to sonic narratives that invite deep, contemplative listening—perfect for both introspective moments and immersive listening sessions.

This release is not just an album; it’s a curated experience for those who desire music as a multidimensional art form, merging the vintage allure of analog sound with a contemporary, cosmic vision.

The album released today entitled 'Bottna' by Dött ljus, is now featuring on M.P.R Ambient.

Released 5th February 2025

Slowcraft is leaning into the new year with a confident, cross-genre excursion into the exuberant world of Dött ljus.

Stockholm producers Johan Kisro and Petter Lindhagen are making all the right moves with their debut Bottna. The duo clearly prize curiosity and spontaneity, yet somehow the irrepressible energy of their hybrid electronica finds itself subtly grounded in a tenderly ambient melancholy. It’s a finely wrought balance, instinctively judged, resulting in a remarkably nuanced collection that abandons all expectation and trespasses across genre boundaries, sparking the precise neural connections needed to lift us from our northern hemisphere gloom into a hopeful, heartfelt groove.

Bottna is presented digitally and in a limited cassette edition designed by James Murray and Simon Vince with bespoke artwork by Kajsa H. Bolve. As always every element of this release is carefully considered, assembled with utmost care and comes with the very warmest recommendation from Slowcraft to our loyal listeners.
