Coldcut compiled @0 in order to acknowledge ambient music's power to soothe and provide balance. The album's proceeds are split between three charities: CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), Mind, and Black Minds Matter. Available as a 17-track double LP, a 29-track unmixed digital release, or as a continuously mixed CD by Coldcut and Mixmaster Morris, @0 features music from dozens of artists, from established ambient, new age, and neo-classical names to more atmospheric tracks by artists generally associated with techno, art pop, post-rock, or other genres. Some of these stylistic diversions end up being highlights, like the pillowy, piano-driven "Another Dream" by ANNA (usually known for producing headstrong techno), or the filter-heavy crackle of Skee Mask's "CG Drip." A few tracks dip gently into the more psychedelic qualities of ambient, like Daniel Pemberton and Future Sound of London's "Behind the Eyes" and ill-esha's "Sonata of Solitude." Nailah Hunter's stunning "Sadko" combines rich, billowing synths with her delicate harp playing, signaling an expanding direction for her inventive sound. Space ambient pioneer Steve Roach and iconic zitherist Laraaji both make appearances, doing what they do best, and lesser-knowns like Noodreem, Obay Alsharani, and Specimens all turn in impressive zone-outs. Coldcut show up a few times themselves, with the stirring cello piece "The Fire Burns Out" and a stretched-out, harpified rework of Imogen Heap's "The Happy Song." Best of all, however, is a more tranquil update of Irresistible Force's remix of Coldcut's 1993 downtempo ballad "Autumn Leaves," the type of song where the haunting vocals echo throughout your dreams. ~ Paul Simpson
