Birchville, Omit, Peter Wright...all the old New Zealand gods...

absolutely into drone, all my favorite ambient music could easily be classified as drone, and viaa versa

drone as a genre term/ music scene has always felt a bit false to me for some reason.

still i would love to hear more pure drones

Didn't read thread, but The Buried Stream by Of is my favorite. Underground Cloud is excellent.

It's a brilliant mix of nature and that industrial sound (Think Merzbow's Merzzow), with two very mellow musical interludes thrown in through the album. Definitely recommend it.

Seems pretty reasonable as a genre to me. I mean I'm not about to call Sunn O))) ambient...

Until they start subdividing it (Dronestep) I'm fine

he's got a SHITLOAD of music

Grasslung - Sincere Void

Machinefabriek - Music For Intermittent Movements

kind of shitty cover artwork but the music is like BoC without beats kind of

Yeah Grasslung is awesome. Let me know if you want some pre-masters of his tape-only collab with Cex.
