		<pubDate>Tue, 03 May 2011 11:30:00 GMT</pubDate>
		<description>The sixth album in the Twilight Sessions series. Like the first five volumes, this is an album of completely improvised, live ambient music. Each piece starts as a blank canvas. The music is built around a long, slowly decaying loop. Notes are added from synths, guitar, voice and clarinet and over time, they built into grand, atmospheric soundscapes. Sometimes, however, I forget to press record when something wonderful is created. On these occasions, I can only capture the loop that has already been created. This is the reason that three of the tracks on this album are unusually short. </description>

		<description>The debut on BFW recordings from Russian indie band |sistra|, or more correctly, |систра|. The band have gained some recognition in their native Russia and rightly so. Diaphone is a collection of heartful songs. The band&#39;s delivery is powerful and emotional. Close to post rock but more fragile and less apocalyptic. We have much more from |sistra| in the near future. </description>

		<description>Bing Satellites returns with the fourth release in as many months. 'Time' is an ambient album but it is emotive and psycheldelic, touched by Bing's love of shoegaze and experimental music. The sounds on this album come from a wide variety of sources - synths, laptop, guitar, clapped ot old keyboards and objects lying around Bing's studio in Manchester. </description>

		<description>The debut on BFW from Berlin based producer a:urban. A deep electronic EP that mixes dark ambient, ambient shoegaze with harder drum and bass beats (even if those beats aren&#39;t at the front of the mix). We hope to have more from a:urban in the future. </description>

		<description>The debut from Glaswegian duo The Maybes. This is a modern take on classic C86 indie. The Maybes are a Glasgow two piece band playing guitar based Alternative Music. The Maybes formed during the summer of 2010 playing local acoustic live gigs, and recorded a demo EP using a home based studio set up. They are currently writing and recording new material and plan to gig in the near future. </description>

		<description>27 new songs by 27 artists from around the world, all written and recorded in one day - Saturday 19 March 2011. After the resounding success of Album In A Day volume 1, we quickly decided that we would have to try this again some time. So earlier this year, we invited musicians from around the world to each write and record a completely new song, from scratch on 19 March 2011. All the songs would be collected together the next day and released as a free download and bit torrent on Monday 21 March 2011. The response has been phenomenal! 27 songs from musicians all over the world and a wide range of styles as you might expect from BFW recordings.</description>

		<description>The debut release from Kamin is a fantastic electronic journey. There is a nice mix on this album - from dark electronica with real "synth-y" synths and real drums to beautiful ambient landscapes. My description does this album no justice, so I would suggest you have a listen and judge for yourself!</description>

This is probably the most ambient compilation we have released so far, although there are elements of indie guitar noise and glitchy electronics thrown in there for good measure. All in all, a great album showcasing the wide range of music we release - all available to download for free from BFW recordings. </description>

Following on from the first volume of Geography, which was described as 'one of the best albums of 2010', this is another masterpiece! The music is abstract and electronic and quite minimal, but Closer Contact and Meteer have created another album of quiet psychedelic beauty. So will this be described as 'one of the best albums of 2011'? Take a listen and judge for yourself! </description>

		<description>The fourth album in the Twilight Sessions series. Like the previous three releases in this series, this is a collection of improvised live recordings. In places, very ambient: long, drawn out pieces that evolve slowly, creating quite an emotive and evocative sound. Each piece starts as a blank canvas with no preconceived notion of where the music will go. Notes and noises are played from synths, guitar, voice, clarinet and samples and fed into one or two loops which repeat and layer and decay. These loops can be quite long, so as a performer I can add notes as I see fit, but only have a certain amount of control over what is heard - the rest is serendipity. As I have recorded more and more of these sessions, I finally feel like I am finding my musical voice. There is something magical about the music being spontaneous. I never know where it will take me. I add notes and flourishes here and there but sometimes a loop may be over a minute and a half long, so I never fully know what I am adding notes to! I hope you enjoy this album as much as I enjoyed makiing it. Rest assured, another one will follow soon enough! </description>

		<description>The fifth release on BFW from SineRider. As those of you who have been lucky enough to hear SineRider&#39;s music before, a new release is always welcome. In the past, he has delivered some sublime music somewhwere on the spectrum between ambient and post rock. 'Ambivert', as the name suggests, is firmly rooted in the ambient side of things. Half an hour of chilled loveliness. </description>

		<description>The seventh release on BFW from i AM esper is perhaps the most melodic and accessible. This is much more melancholic and ambient in places. More delicate than some of the heavy drones we have heard in the past. A pretty damned wonderful EP!  </description>

		<description>A while back, we invited BFW artists and our friends to submit songs for a BFW Christmas Album. We left the scope for these contributions quite wide - you could write a song with a Christmas or Winter feel, or maybe a song for your love ones, or even get out the sleigh bells and croon like Nat King Cole! It just had to be an original song - we aren&#39;t doing an album of ambient Christmas carols! What we got has astounded us. So we present to you The BFW Christmas Album 2010, a collection of 12 songs with the usual BFW flavour - from ambient to shoegaze to electronic to downright bonkers! Please share this album with your family and friends. MERRY CHRISTMAS!   </description>

		<description>Here is the new experimental project from Elypixa. It would be too pretentious to compare himself to Beethoven, but he has inspired Elypixa. Beethoven continued to write, compose music after becoming deaf. That&#39;s where Elypixa had an idea - compose an album without listening to what he does, just taking into account the knowledge of its design software. Elypixa randomly selected sounds and synthesizers... He composed as usual... He finally listened and selected the most representative of Elypixa.  </description>

		<description>The sixth release on BFW from i AM esper on BFW recordings is a bit of a change of pace. This EP starts off much more peacefully and atmospheric than previous releases with the sound of gentle stream and quietly plucked guitars, though the hypnotic feel and drone make their presence felt. </description>

		<description>A new experimental work from musician and composer Lindenberg Munroe. "This album comprises a selection of works done through many years since my time back in Brazil and my recent years here in England. Nonetheless, they are all linked by the same mood; reflective at times with darkness nearby. I am particularly interested in the amalgamation between peace and disturbance and that is why Studies for the Soul (Etudes for the Anima) tries to translate within the scope of sound those feelings." - Lindenberg Munroe </description>
