{"product_id":"pop-ambient-2016-lp","title":"Pop Ambient 2016 [LP]","description":"Though Kompakt has been an outlet for ambient producers since their late-'90s establishment -- see CD2, Dettinger's Intershop -- they didn't set up a dedicated subsidiary until 2015. That year, Kompakt Pop Ambient issued albums by Leandro Fresco, Thore Pfeiffer, and Jens-Uwe Beyer, as well as this, the 17th Pop Ambient compilation. It's the first continuous sequence of tracks in the series, but it ain't no hot mix, merely a subtly segued selection of cuts that remains in the tradition of the label's sky-sailing faction. Fresco's \"Configuracion de Ataque\" is a highlight, eerie space-folk akin to El Reino Invisible cuts like \"La Herida del Soldado.\" The Buenos Aires native also remixes Dave DK's \"Veira\" and leaves a light thump -- a rare Pop Ambient track with a beat. Pfeiffer and Beyer likewise are present with exclusives. As ever, the track titles are often evocative of the sounds: \"Alpine Dawn\" (the Orb),\" \"Unterwasser\" (Max Würden), and so forth. Compared to the other volumes, this is among the most tranquil, with few threatening sounds. ~ Andy Kellman","brand":"InnerSleeve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41916557787301,"sku":"880319805813","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/6007\/1077\/files\/73fd348369115240c8671221ba515177.jpg?v=1781162147","url":"https:\/\/www.innersleeve.com\/en-ca\/products\/pop-ambient-2016-lp","provider":"InnerSleeve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
