San Francisco, CA based Celestial Trails is an ambient music project by Taner Torun, founder of Fluttery Records. The debut Celestial Trails release, “Lunar Beachcomber,” is set for release on April 12, 2024. The compositions draw inspiration from nature, urban settings, and cosmic themes, inviting listeners on a transformative sonic journey.

Lunar Beachcomber, crafted between June 2023 and January 2024, seamlessly integrates organic sounds like piano, analog synths, organ, and guitars with virtual electronic instruments.

From tranquil meadows to bustling cityscapes, Lunar Beachcomber encapsulates a blend of science fiction and surrealism while retaining discernible melodies. As the album unfolds, it prompts reflection on the interconnectedness of earthly and cosmic realms, urging listeners to explore the depths of its evocative musical landscapes.Inspired by two foundational pillars, nature and outer space, San Francisco’s Celestial Trails presents “Lunar Beachcomber” as an immersive ambient music experience.

Diamond Gloss, led by Gonçalo Pereira, returns with their fifth studio album, “Golden Mountain Tales,” marking a departure from the synth and beats-based sound of their predecessor.

Pereira’s dense, simplistic, and textural compositions explore themes of time, space, and textures, offering a majestic journey through ambient soundscapes centered around the piano. Inspired by personal experiences and deeply rooted in Pereira’s hometown of Lisbon, Portugal.

With nods to Thomas Mann’s “The Magic Mountain” and a dedication to Pereira’s late father, “Golden Mountain Tales” stands as the project’s strongest work to date, characterized by intense emotion and masterful composition. Mastered by Taner Torun, the artist behind Celestial Trails and founder of Fluttery Records, the album promises a transformative listening experience, inviting audiences to immerse themselves fully in its intricate and emotive soundscapes.
