from our friends at InFiné:

“We Are Emotional People.”

Ambient music lies at the very core of InFiné. We’re devotees of the great Brian Eno, raised on the 4AD label, and nurtured on KLF’s pioneering Chill Out and Aphex Twin’s Selected Ambient Works on Warp. Ever-curious listeners, we soaked up the German vibrations of early Ash Ra Tempel before diving into the abyssal basslines of Moritz Von Oswald or the stark minimalism of Pole.

Later, we encountered other wizards around the globe: Murcof in Mexico, Loscil in Canada, Kaito in Japan, Biosphere in Scandinavia, and more recently Kmru in Kenya. This music forms a central thread in our catalog, sitting alongside more rhythm-driven electronic styles, innovative classical hybrids, and increasingly even pop. In Ambient, the role of sound is more vital than in any other genre! Each note needs ample space to resonate, and every piece immerses you in the pure essence of its sound. These tracks stretch time by using minimal resources to create a profound experience. Here, silence is part of the composition, offering a depth and richness unlike anything else.

What seems simple often takes hours in the studio to refine and place each note, adjusting the movement of a resonance like an architect shaping a structure. Everything must be perfectly calibrated, without artifice, like a zen garden where the tiniest imperfection disrupts the harmony. Ambient goes straight to the heart of music: emotion! Sound becomes a safe haven, a powerful instrument for resilience and introspection, bringing us together to face personal or collective challenges. Fueled by this conviction and countless hours of practice, InFiné developed its own “medicinal music” series. We’ve carefully selected audio potions from our catalog—often electronic, sometimes more organic or experimental—to guide you through beneficial emotional landscapes. InFiné Ambient is an invitation to travel without moving, a moment to reset our humanity in a world assaulted by outside turbulence.”
