A solitary rock formation stands stoic against the backdrop of a vast desert landscape. The forces of nature have sculpted this ancient rock formation into a mesmerizing work of art, its weathered beauty a testament to the passage of time.

Icicles hanging from below an escarpment. The icycles are robust and light blue. There is white ice on the ground.

A close up of a bee on a flower. The flower has white petals with a yellow style. The bee is black with a yellow upper torso, and is fussy. The background is out of focus, but is green from the foliage.

Weiß nicht, ob es hier auch Interessierte gibt fĂŒr #Entschleunigung in der konsumierten Musik. Richtungen wie #Ambient, #TripHop, #Chillout versuchen ja seit ĂŒber zwei Jahrzehnten schon Derartiges. Aus dieser Ecke hier mal ein Klassiker. #Emancipator ist eine Band, die seit ĂŒber fĂŒnfzehn Jahren fĂŒr gepflegtes musikalisches Runterkommen steht, Electronics und Acoustics wohl gemischt. Hier ein ĂŒber einstĂŒndiger Live-Konzert-Mitschnitt, allerdings nur Musik, keine Bilder:

@grantc That's really good. Thank you for sharing!

Listening to that, I think I understand what you mean by "music that makes my soul-star vibe". If I may share one in return, this is one of my favorites: "Minor Cause" by #Emancipator.

The Samuel Jackson Five is another amazing band whose works can be abused as #productivity music (even though they're massively more proggy than #TheAmericanDollar, #BSBD, #Emancipator).

I was very lucky to have attended their concert in #Riga, #Latvia in 2013 with my good friend. It's sad they've disbanded.

Here's their 2005 work — youtube.com/watch?v=uaBNVGBkNH, and here's how one can purchase .flac / .mp3 of my favourite album by them — denovali.com/digitalstore/inde

I suggest literally everyone to purchase it from #denovali to support independent, ethical art.

I had only listened to the first Emancipator album "Soon It Will Be Cold Enough". What have I missed... youtube.com/watch?v=fULXi348-jI
