Dark Ambient 2.0

The first one

Part two of the PUTA song.....This came out a little more mechanical sounding than i think i wanted, but after doing a few different remixes of it, this first version of it, was the one i liked the best. 

This is over an hour of ambient drifting, as i like to call it....Great to listen to with headphones.... Thanks to everyone who has downloaded my podcasts....my e-mail is jimbutlermusic@mac.com. If anyone could write a review at either I-Tunes or Podshow.com, it would be most appreciated.. Again enjoy and if you have any comments or suggestions....please let me know. Thanks Jim - Dark Ambient

A 60 minute soundscape, consisting of 3 similar types of songs that I was working on...woven together to make this flowing, breathing soundscape.    

  This one took a little while longer than i had anticipated, but it came out very smooth and listenable. Great for looping in the background or falling asleep to. I've been listening to this soundscape, when i've been taking my dog for walks down to the pond near our house and it seems to become a part of the surroundings, like you almost don't realize that there is msuic playing, it just sort of becomes part of that experience of looking at the pond and sun rising or setting, and the stillness of moment.   If you can, please leave a review over at ITUNES. It would be very much appreciated....   The next one should not take 50 days for it to come out.   Jimbutlermusic@mac.com  

Another 60 minutes or so of ambient soundscapes.....When i get home evryday, i walk my dog Bennie, a black lab down to the pond behind my house.. I think it is one of the highlights of both of our days...for teh past few weeks, after our walks, i've been coming home and writing music, some long pieces and some short, this podcast is a blend of the different pieces i made ....   there are pictures of Bennie and the pond on my website...   http://web.mac.com/jimbutlermusic/iWeb/Site/Home.html     As always thanks for listening and thanks for the reviews over at IUNES..!!!...It is very much appreciated....more reviews are always welcome....   If you want to use my music for a podcast or website, please e-mail me at jimbutlermusic@mac.com   Thanks Again for taking the time out to download the show.....   Peace,   Jim

This one is a little darker than usual, which was not what the original sounds in my head were....this sort of just happened and took on a life of it's own.....     E-mail jimbutlermusic@mac.com   Please if you get a chance , leave a review over at ITUNES...   Thanks   jim

Hi Everyone,  Welcome to Dark Ambient # 12 ‘ Awakening’ ..i’m right on schedule with my self imposed 30-45 day window for getting the podcast uploaded.  This one is actually a CD I made for a spa night that was happening near where I live. I made about 30 cd’s to give away to people who attended….I did a little re-editing so all the songs would be seamless.  Some of these songs were used on my first podcast ‘Northeast Ambient’, but since that is not available anymore, I feel ok re-using some of these songs ….plus there is a brand new song tacked on at the end called Earth Ambient Vol 1. The entire podcast runs about an hour and ten minutes or so. The track listing is  LevitatingAwakeningInvisible RoadWalking Into the LightChimesMist on the WaterEarth Ambient Vol. 1   This is a set of songs I still listen to, so I hope you enjoy them. Next month it will be one full year since the podcast came to life, so I have a surprise in store for next months podcast!! As always, thanks for listening. Thanks to everyone who has e-mailed and said hi …If you want to contact me my e-mail is jimbutlermusic@mac.com It’s always great hearing from people who listen …. Or you can find me at my myspace page  myspace.com/darkambientpodcast   Peace and have a great Holiday and New Year…!!!! Jim

HiEveryone,   Sorryfor the wait, but a lot to tell. First the podcast. I got the name of thePodcast ' Dark Energy ' from a set of pictures I saw on the website for theHubble Telescope. I have attached one of the images from the site as the artworkfor this podcast. If you can't see the artwork, you can go to PODSHOW.com/darkambientand find the images for all of the podcasts.   Thispodcast is not an easy listen. There are parts where it seems like the music onthe edge of just falling apart, and there are passages where it's just a quietlayer of sounds. I think it's worth the time and energy, and I hope you enjoyit.   Thereason this took so long is that I was working on another project while doingthis podcast. I'm very happy to say that I have my first Ambient CD available.It's called 'Dark Energy 1 - Music for Relaxation and Meditation' Just what theworld needs..another meditation cd. Well when i looked for relaxation CD's tolisten to myself, it always seemed like there was too much music or sounds ofnature on the CD’s or downloads I found. The music just wasn't well, relaxing.So I took it upon myself to make my own soundscape. This CD is about as relaxingas it can be, without there being just no music at all!!! And the best part, thedownload is only 1.00 through CD Baby. The Physical CD is 5.00 also through CD Baby.The link to the download and a sound sample is here …     http://cdbaby.com/cd/jbutler3          Asalways thanks for listening, If you have an extra moment, a review over atITUNES would be most appreciated.   You cane-mail me at jimbutlermusic@mac.com   Join MyMYSPACE page at www.myspace.com/darkambientpodcast       Thanks andPeace   Jim

Hi Everyone,   Thanks for downloading and reading. Sorry about the wait for this podcast, but the real world got in the way this time. Been working straight out at my day job, and my house is undergoing some renovation, and the Red Sox almost making it to the World Series, has taken a huge amount of normal recording time …..!!!   Originally this podcast was going to be a very dark sounding type of show, with a bunch of ‘found sounds’ that I’ve been capturing using my new zoom H2 recorder…as I started that piece of music, I kept going back to a folder on my hard drive, just labeled ‘Piano’. I had been working on for almost a year a few short pieces, of just a little synth and mostly piano. The same time as I’m working on the music a few things happened. My cat of almost 19 years, Amy passed away. This was the latest in a series of passings of animals in my life. 3 or so years ago, my wifes dog Woody passed away at the age of 13, Her cat Familiar passed away very suddenly this year and her parents dog Shadow, also passed. This was bookended by the passing of my cousin Cheryl 5 years ago, of cancer and the passing about a month ago of Debbie, the wife of a good friend of mine also to cancer. The more I thought about all of the lives moving on, it didn’t seem right to be doing the podcasts with the found sounds, and I kept opening and working in the Piano folder. Once I had decided to change the direction of the podcast, things seemed to flow a little smoother.    There are 3 sections of this Piece of music. The first piece ‘Sorrow’ runs about ten minutes long.  This was written first almost 6 months ago, maybe even longer..’Loss’ is the middle bridge piece, which comes in at about 30 minutes in length and was the last piece written. ‘Remembrance’ is a companion piece to ‘Sorrow’ and runs about 10 minutes or so ..All 3 songs blend together. I hope you enjoy them.   If you would like to support the podcast, please consider downloading the following full length soundscapes. At Amazon they are only .99 cents each and at eMusic each title is only one download. They are also available at Napster, Rhapsody and pretty much any other place out there that sells music..You can follow the links below for the following pieces of music.   Deep Energy 1 Moon Dreams 1 Moon Dreams 2 Moon Dreams 3 Moon Dreams 4   If you do pick up one of the downloads, please leave a review. Thanks to everyone that has left reviews at itunes!!!     eMusic: http://www.emusic.com/artist/Jim-Butler-MP3-Download/12052578.html   Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0013OG560/ref=dm_dp_adp?ie=UTF8&qid=1224544657&sr=8-3   And Itunes….   One more thing….The 20th podcast is coming up in December…and it should be interesting …I ‘ve already started it and all I can say about it is…Clear some space on your hard drives !!!!   Take care …   Namaste   Jim
