crcaptrio A lovely album to listen too while riding in the car while looking out at the surrounding forest. Favorite track: Lost In Thoughts.

Alpha Chrome Yayo Above all else, 'Ultimate Answer' is (to me anyway) a record of immense warmth.

Not just the warmth of tones and texture on offer (of which there are many) but warmth of spirit.

This is a mammoth album to luxuriate in; a sublime sonic pool to tickle the senses, to inspire, to soothe.

Spending time with Ultimate Answer is akin to a magical hour with a good friend. It babbles, it soars, it peaks, it troughs. It heals. It *warms*.

Listen to it. Listen to it all, over and over and over and over. Favorite track: Lost In Thoughts.

Glass I think it's time we start mentioning Binaural Space whenever we talk about ambient music. That's all I'm going to say. Enjoy! Favorite track: Reversibility.

Allister Thompson There are ambient elements in Binaural Space's music, to be sure, but it's really a collection of alternately playful and beautiful synth textures and melodies, akin to the best of early German synth music. Each album so far has been a charismatic, immersive listen. Favorite track: Eternity Is Forever.

wc_helmets Binaural Space has taken his exploratory sound and reflected it into a murky pool where overtones and drones replace the calm journeys of previous releases. A journey to a darker place, but a well-rounded addition for this artist's great knack of mood. Favorite track: Eternity Is Forever.

SELVEDGE A very blissful and enchanting record. Spaced-out with a light touch. Deftly placed sounds and synthlines. Perfect for overcast days, summer bleeding into fall. Favorite track: Hope Will Always Be.

Binaural Space 3rd album, Ultimate Answer, finally on a cassette!

Transparent Piano Brown C58 cassette with on-body golden hand-lettering by Binaural Space himself. Both sides comprised of music crafted so precisely that when the last track on each side finishes, tape's end follows immediately – you won't wait for more seconds than the leader length.

Each copy real-time recorded directly from analog master played on a fabled Marantz deck to a warm and beloved Nakamichi deck, meaning every single copy is unique and has desired little artefacts like warble, flutter or wow, making your cassette a hearty lo-fi original.

Registered shipping.

Limited edition of only 15 cassettes.

about

42, the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything. And also Binaural Space’s age for 2019.

This LP is, in its almost 60 minutes of music, the most personal, intimate, honest album by Binaural Space so far. It is the insider view of a time of an artist redefining himself, time depicted by changing of priorities, goals and dreams. Time of finally getting rid of the desire to fit in, to please, to be acknowledged by majority. Time of doing what one has been destined to do, to seek for the truth no matter what. To ask the ultimate question, take the leap and see what happens.

This conceptual album is, from the beginning to end, filled with music that simply had to be made, because the world (at least someone’s world) was and would not be complete without it.

Some of the tracks originated in the middle of the night due to waking up, getting lost in thoughts and being unable to get back to sleep. Working not only on these was a kind of therapy and, actually, sometimes even an instant mood enhancer to obey the positive impulse to create something new yet before the dawn.

Those early morning hours of being in the zone and just feeling, not thinking, were some of the best times of the previous six months and the results are quite surprising. The given tracks have a calming effect of invitingly opening doors, windows and even roofs to somewhere else. They make one feel the desire to travel out there (or inside, which can be the same thing), to be a part of the whole or at least to fall asleep. ;-)

Tracks on this album tell a story as they are supposed to, they reveal it slowly, providing natural gradation, awakening and final punchline towards the end. Attentive, patient listeners, who have enjoyed the full journey, shall get rewarded by the entire experience. Let’s wish there’s more and more of such enlightened people.

Binaural Space

Ambient traditionalists say to Binaural Space what the Emperor said to Mozart: “Too many notes.” In both cases, the rest of the world tends to disagree.

Great album that doesn't take itself too seriously but stands the test of multiple listens anyway (just yesterday I enjoyed a 2-hour drive accompanied only with the 4 pre-released tracks tremendously) Binaural Space

Fun, multi-genre album full with motley ideas in the best sense of the word, with that typical melodic and harmonic magic only ACY can provide. Currently my fav ACY album – and that's something! Binaural Space

Powerful and yet intimate, deep and yet full of light, haunting but optimistic. This EP has a special atmosphere thanks to the brilliantly selected timbres and sounds... and the vocal. Great name, too Binaural Space

A very soothing experience which I find is great for meditation. Offers a diverse set of tones throughout the album. This evokes different emotional experiences which I always appreciate in an album. andyhorry
