that's the genius of kromestar, makes bangers, and has definitely made a string of ambient tunes, to say he hasn't is really, really stupid

RAINY DAYZ :U:

big ups to kromestar and his variation!

FFS, just because something is chilled out and spacey doesn't make it ambient...

What does 'ambient' (music) means to you?

Background, unobtrusive music with little structure and often no beat or melody. I guess it's a very loose term and open to interpretation, but I just find calling Demon Slayah (or just about anything by Kromestar except that beatless bit posted earlier and probably a few others I haven't heard) ambient really wrong. Like, if it came on at a club you wouldn't say 'hey, this is ambient!' cos you'd be too busy skanking and having your bones rearranged by the bass.

u can't use a dictionary's definition of a word that also identifies a genre of music, to determine that genre's qualities

it's like saying "rock" is stuff that sounds like a man smashing stones together

Makes me laugh when someone describes a minimal but intense track as chill or ambient.

Noiz is immense. My god.

And I heard Kromestar actually is an alias of Brian Eno, so he knows a thing or two about 'ambient'.

when someone describes a minimal/deep track which is clearly fuckin depressingly sad as chill. how can it be chill if it makes you cry? why are you chilling to music that inspires hacking sobs in otherwise healthy subjects? :|

Only thing false about this is the fact that, if this were by Excision, I probably wouldn't have even listened to it.

Fuck labelling and pigeonholing everything... chilled, ambient, tearout, brostep... who gives a shit... it's just music, so enjoy it!
