Eluvium

May brings us new ambient bliss from Portland's Eluvium.  Sit back, breathe, and maybe meditate on life a little bit and listen to "A.M." below, then pre-order the "Virga III" here from Temporary Residence.

Inventions

Inventions is the new ambient side project from Matthew Cooper (Eluvium) and Mark T. Smith (Explosions in the Sky), an echo chamber of serene tone and drone to send you off to the next life.  Beautiful, entrancing stuff.  Get the self-titled album now on Temporary Residence and listen to "Entity" below.

Eluvium & Ira Kaplan (Yo La Tengo)

Eluvium's new album "Nightmare Ending" is due out in a couple of weeks from Temporary Residence Ltd.  Check out the melancholy, downtrodden, piano-led track "Happiness," featuring Yo La Tengo's Ira Kaplan on vocals.  This one should put you right to sleep.
