Les Antonymes - Silence (for your eyes)

From the Album 'December Getaway' the track 'Silence (for your eyes)' by Les Antonymes is now playing on M.P.R Ambient.

 

 

Release date: Jan 19, 2026

It wasn't the first time they gathered at the House. Or the last. It was an evening in December. It was cold. It was damp. It hadn't snowed. The piano was there, as always, in the studio, by the drums. Olivier played a few notes, like he sometimes does. To regain a semblance of composure between two bouts of drumming. Like David sometimes uses his voice, when he isn't playing bass, or Fred tries out a new toy, when he isn't processing field recordings.

Nina was the last to arrive. She'd brought a guitar, and she sang a little, adding an unexpected touch of blue to our soundscapes. As for Antonin, well, he's ALWAYS there – I mean it is HIS House after all. He dabbled with his groovebox, like he usually does, but more discreetly this time. He was more involved with editing and mixing, this time. The whole session amounted to almost two hours. It took him a year to extract the essence from it and bring it down to three pieces.

This is what came out from that session, back when it was damp, and cold, but it hadn't snowed. Three wandering meditations through melancholic landscapes. This is for you. This is our 'December Getaway'.

Track list:
1. Out (of the blue) 04:22
2. Silence (for your eyes) 08:28
3. In (a nutshell) 08:33

Les Antonymes

Les Antonymes is a variable-geometry band that sprung fully clad from Antonin De Bemels' mind and his desire to work on his compositions and improvisation frameworks with different musicians. You can expect craggy soundscapes, meandering melodies, and the occasional groove to stir things up a bit (although you won't know which foot to dance on).

Recurring members outside Antonin (groovebox) are Frederic Aerden (processed field recordings), Olivier Taskin (drums) and David Christophe (bass).

December (getaway) is their 7th EP to date. And their debut LP, En T, is scheduled for release in 2026.

DTRi - it is here, then it's gone

Now playing on M.P.R Chill is DTRi with the newly released track titled 'it is here, then it's gone'.

 

 

Release date: Feb 6, 2026

With “it is here, then it's gone,” DTRi deepens his exploration of ambient electronic music by blending immersive textures with a subtle but driving beat-forward foundation. The track balances spacious atmospheric pads and evolving harmonic layers with a restrained rhythmic pulse — creating motion without urgency. Rather than overwhelming the listener, the groove gently carries the piece forward, allowing emotion and depth to unfold gradually.

Built around cinematic ambience and warm dynamic mastering, the production embraces clarity and space. Low-end elements remain controlled and supportive, while the mid and high frequencies breathe — resulting in a soundscape that feels intimate yet expansive. “it is here, then it's gone” reflects on impermanence and presence. Moments appear, evolve, and dissolve — mirrored in the way textures shift and the rhythm subtly transforms beneath them. 

It’s ambient music with direction: meditative, but not static. Designed for listeners who appreciate evolving soundscapes with understated rhythmic energy, the track sits comfortably between ambient, lofi, and cinematic electronic — where atmosphere meets forward motion.

Zola Legno - Lantern of Dreams

'Lantern of Dreams' by Zola Legno is now playing on M.P.R Ambient.

 

 

Release date: Jan 19, 2026

The track 'Lantern of Dreams' is taken from the album 'Jade Horizon'. This meditation album is an invitation to slow down and return to yourself.

It consists of ten tracks, each one a gentle doorway into stillness, awareness, and inner space.

Every composition unfolds with patience and intention, allowing silence and sound to breathe together. The music flows through minimalist piano lines, subtle textures, and calm, spacious rhythms—supporting moments of meditation, reflection, and deep rest.

Rather than guiding or directing, these pieces create a safe and open field in which you can simply be. Whether you listen consciously or let the music accompany you in the background, each track offers space for grounding, presence, and quiet transformation.

Together, the ten tracks form a continuous journey - one that mirrors the natural rhythm of letting go and returning home. A journey inward, where listening becomes a form of meditation, and sound becomes a companion on the path toward balance, clarity, and gentle self-compassion.

Artificial Island - Lumen

Returning to M.P.R Chill is Artificial Island with the track titled 'Lumen'.

 

 

Release date: Jan 6, 2026

Artificial Island are a London-based duo who produce evocative electronic music, blending ambient, downtempo and post-rock influences. Their aim is to write soulful electronic music capturing mood and atmosphere but without neglecting the foreground of melody.

Their music is gently upbeat but quietly melancholic, mixing ethereal and pulsing electronics, organic loops, deep almost dub-like bass with shimmering, reversing synths.

“Music is always an act of communication; capturing something felt in all its complexity to be shared across time and space. And it is always refracting, casting different lights, different shadows, but ultimately reminding us that we are connected and not isolated. We hope our music succeeds in some way in that act of connection and resonance”.

Boy of Sleep - Whispers Between Stars

From the album 'Silent Orbit' Boy of Sleep returns to M.P.R Ambient with the track titled 'Whispers Between Stars'.

 

 

Release date: Jan 30, 2026

Boy of Sleep is the ambient project of musician Michael Lane, known to many for his work in the indie-folk scene. Under this alias, Lane creates calm, atmospheric soundscapes built on minimalism, emotion, and a clear, understated aesthetic. The pieces move between meditative stillness and subtle melancholy, inviting listeners to step away from everyday life for a moment.

With Boy of Sleep, Lane deliberately takes a different direction from his indie-folk releases. Here, he focuses on floating sounds, textures, and moods that avoid big gestures and instead rely on restraint. The project allows him to explore musical ideas that emerge outside his singer-songwriter framework.

Lane is also active under the name The Fold, a project that leans more toward pop structures and translates his experimental side into more melodic forms. Both projects reveal different facets of his work, but Boy of Sleep represents the quieter, more introspective counterpart.

The music of Boy of Sleep appeals to listeners who appreciate clear, unobtrusive ambient compositions — pieces that create space without feeling empty. Lane’s work offers a place of retreat, relying less on effects and more on mood and atmosphere, resulting in a personal and understated approach to the ambient genre.

Richard Zelada - The Force

Richard Zelada returns to M.P.R Ambient with his latest track 'The Force' releasing on February 13th.

 

 

Release Date: February 13th 2026

“The Force” is a piece born from tension - the moment when power awakens inside someone long before they understand what it means.

In the world of The Luminar Arc, The Force represents the first spark of energy that connects every character, every realm, and every shadow that moves through the story. It’s not magic. It’s not destiny. It’s something older - a pulse that chooses the ones who can feel it.

This track captures that awakening:

The quiet before the surge.

The breath before the transformation.

The moment when a person realizes they’re standing on the edge of something far bigger than themselves.

"Musically, The Force blends emotional orchestration with atmospheric tension, building layer by layer until the energy becomes undeniable. It’s both a standalone experience and a key part of the larger mythos I’m building this year".

For listeners, The Force is meant to feel like stepping into a world where every sound carries weight, every chord hints at something hidden, and every rise in the music signals a shift in the story.

This is the beginning of power. This is the beginning of The Arc.

I’ve composed for many artists and released under many guises. My latest release is an ambient album I use in my breathwork and meditation teaching.

Sam Way - Alchemy (Spoken)

Something a little different! Sam Way, with his new release 'Alchemy (Spoken)' is now playing on M.P.R Ambient.

 

 

Release date: Jan 16, 2026

Sam Way

Sam Way has a love of the written word and a desire to tell powerful stories is at at the core of Sam's work as an artist. As a teenager he wrote plays, volumes of poetry, short stories and composed his first songs sat at the out of tune upright piano his mum used to play. 

Music, and the discovery of new artists shaped his free time as an adolescent, and every weekend he spent any and all of his pocket money, and hours of his time listening to and buying records in the 'Staff picks' section at HMV. 

Creativity continued to be a refuge for Sam, a catharsis, and eventually upon moving to the capital from a small rural town in south west England he released his own music into the world with the support of a small independent label in 2013. 

Sam thrust himself into songwriting, collaborating, experimenting sonically and touring. He eventually decided the bureaucracy of the label was limiting his own creative visions so broke away and began self funding his own work and studio time. 

His self funded debut, an EP of 5 original songs all written and co-produced by Sam was entitled 'Architect' and after a rigorous approach on social media to his peers the news spread within and beyond his social circle to help the EP reach the top 15 in the UK singer songwriter iTunes Charts.

From 2015 til 2019, Sam released 10 singles, 3 official music videos and played live in LA and NYC. Since then and until the present day, Sam has been working on the content from his forthcoming Album' released 10 singles, collaborated with pop producer Rob Late as a vocalist on his song 'Closer' published his first poetry volume and made a notable appearances, playing live and in interview on BBC London. His track 'Give me something' was also played on BBC introducing in Devon.

Alchemy (Spoken)

This is the 5th version of 'Alchemy' which takes the lyrics in their most profound form of spoken word and delivers them wrapped about a beautiful, evolving piano composition. Think late night studies, looking out the window in a car and reflecting of your life and choices, a cinematic and profound inquiry into transformational power of art and the healing element of the creative expression.

Pre Polar - Twisted Staircase

Pre Polar returns to Moon Phase Radio (Chill) with the track titled 'Twisted Staircase'.

 

 

Release date: Jan 29, 2026

The latest album from prolific ambient electronic artist Pre Polar called 'Drift Machine' released on 29th January 2026.

Drift Machine is a captivating exploration of melodic downtempo, electronic and ambient music, blending intricate rhythms with expansive soundscapes to create a journey that is both energizing and meditative. While the music might seem simple on the surface, Drift Machine is far from ordinary. The subtlety in its design reveals itself over time, as the album gently nudges the listener through emotional landscapes. There are moments where the sound swells, evoking a sense of emotional weight, only to recede into silence or the faintest hum. This ebb and flow creates a feeling of transition, of drifting between states of being.

The album's opening track sets the tone with its deep, pulsing bass lines and shimmering synths, which gradually build into a layered and evolving tapestry of sound. Where traditional ambient music might fade into the background, Drift Machine commands attention with its melodic structures and driving beats, yet still manages to maintain the introspective, atmospheric qualities of its ambient roots.

The album is full of moments where the beat subtly fades into more tranquil, ambient passages, only to return with renewed force. It’s a dynamic that keeps the listener engaged, never allowing the experience to become stagnant. There’s a sense of movement, of traveling through both light and dark spaces, of soaring through vast open landscapes before diving into quiet introspective valleys. Tracks like 'Whispair' offer long, atmospheric builds, blending with the spaciousness of ambient music in a way that feels both fresh and timeless.

In the end, Drift Machine reveals itself as a fusion of melodic downtempo, electronic elements and ambient soundscapes. It’s an album that feels alive, evolving with every listen and offering new details to uncover with each track. Whether you're looking to lose yourself in the music during a late-night drive, need a soundtrack for focused work, or simply want to immerse yourself in a world of atmospheric beats and melodies, Drift Machine offers a mesmerizing journey that balances energy with serenity, making it an essential listen for fans of both genres.

Twisted Staircase

Drift Machine seamlessly integrates techno elements with ambient textures. Each track is a carefully crafted balance between rhythm and atmosphere. Tracks like 'Twisted Staircase'as well as the title track 'Drift Machine' expertly combine rolling bass grooves with intricate melodies that emerge from the depths of the sound, creating a sense of motion and fluidity that’s both uplifting and reflective. The melodic elements never overpower the space; instead, they weave in and out of the textures, guiding the listener through dynamic shifts in mood and energy.
