Carbon Based Lifeforms

gods of psybient

absolutely beautiful

i hate that they use the ugly new album covers on spotify

Could possibly be the best music ever produced

My hot take: HG ≥ WoS > 23 > Path >>> Interloper >>>>> Derelicts ≥ Seeker >>> Stoch

Hydroponic Garden and World of Sleepers are utterly timeless perfection, they used to utterly dominate my night listening and any time I revisit I'm reminded why. Have they ever elaborated on the sources for the plethora of samples used across those first two albums? Photosynthesis is the famous one obviously, but Hydroponic Garden from the album of the same name and MOS 6581 also have peculiar sampling. "The jockey... the racecourse.." And Comsat I always like to imagine is sampling NASA broadcasts I'm an original master purist too, the 2015 remakes are flat.

I love CBL so fucking much it's ridiculous

Carbon Based Lifeforms when Carbon Cringe Lifeforms walk in:

Fantastic live set at Ozora. N = R*fpneflfifcL

I have listened to CBL so much, but hearing the same old tracks in a slightly different sounding live version is really cool.

Regardless these two legends got me hooked on Ambient music (which I thought I would never get into :) Every album is unique and makes me appreciate nature and life :)

Love the new album. Its not perfect, but it has the good old CBL vibe and magnificent moments.

All albums but the last one have disappeared from youtube music. Does anybody know what happened?

it took a while but i love the new album

I really enjoyed Seeker, one of their better works in recent time.

Best CBL release since ages, sounds like a visualization to a great story of humans in space. There is also something new in their music and that is the guitar.

New album does absolutely nothing for me :/

New album feels a touch underwhelming for me. I'm hoping it will be a gentle grower after more listens. But Bloom is absolutely one of the best things they've ever done. Could listen on repeat. Only wish Parts 1 and 2 flowed into each other a little more and the whole thing was much longer. (Hoping for a 20 Minutes style extended release.) Sync2n and Fauna are also great. No complaints from me though. These guys have set the bar so incredibly high over the years and Stochastic was such a pleasantly unexpected (and near perfect) surprise.

The new album is 🔥

Only a few listens through the new album so far, but I am getting the vibes I had always been missing in their newer releases from their first albums. Magnificent.

the 'fauna' is a very cozy track.

I'm only 30 seconds in the new album and it's amazing

nice work done on Seeker. the best is the ending part of album once the nice and chilly ambience comes up. many come backs to this LP guaranteed

Not a bad new album but a little generic for CBL standards. A lot of it sounds like I've already heard on previous albums, note for note. I wish they released a voiceless Rymden3000. The version played live last year is much better.

Man, CBL keeps delivering the goods. Seeker is fantastic

Based Lifeforms

What a sci-fi journey "Seeker" is. Love the instrumental side of it too. I'm expecting the live band to play this in the future too ::::::)

Don't even remember how I found CBL, but I've been obsessed with them since I did. Somehow they create a very atmospheric almost... background music, yet it's got such complexity when you really listen.

i heard twentythree and i dont think i will ever get the same experience listening to it at 3am half asleep. its like so airy but so comforting. i love it

lol at how the cover art keeps switching between the originals and remasters.

It's very hard to find people that are heavy CBL fans. My profound love for ambient music is because of them.

For me, M is the most magnificent song they ever produced. I began to listen to CBL when a friend in high school showed me that song, and I think that is when I started to listen to electronic music in general. Great song.

otherworld ambient music

Stochastic is wonderful, after dissapointing derelicts to me, this is beautiful comeback from the CBL, reminds me on the days of Twentythree, wonderful atmospheric ambient, for deep thinking and relaxing at the same time.

Mos 6581, thank you for your existence.

So, what about the forests? still Nope?

i love cbl but can we please get a decent photo on here lol

Wow stochastic litteraly flooded the 7 days charts. Everybody's droning here i see.

scholastic is angelic

CBL always deliver, I'm loving the dreaminess of Stochastic

New record here we go!

FYI before you upvote the old album covers note that all CBL albums have been re-released with new album covers which are also on streaming platforms. Btw they look much better.

Love CBL! Greetings from Finland ( <3^_^)<3

Interlopers has to be one of my all time favorites.

why would you upvote b&w and color-poor pictures when their music is so rich of color?

I like CBL :)

The new album covers tickle my OCD. I don't want to see them in my library when scrobble the original albums. Do something about it Last.fm. Oh, who am I kidding. Sigh.

Весьма годный стафф, самое то для чилла достойных людей.
