backstory: Coil was interviewed in the mid 90s where they told a story of visiting Mexico. While there, they overheard someone use the slang term 'ambiente' in reference to a homosexual man, when they returned when asked what genre of music they made would respond, 'Ambiente!' (remember to say it in a spanish accent). Coil was the main inspiration for the ambient music making techniques used on this album, especially the methods of worshipping the glitch. The title was thought of 2 years ago, and In a long line of overdue Coil tribute title names to come out this year ie: How to Destroy Angels, Answers Come in Dreams, it may seem crass in lieu of Peter's death but i felt it was necessary to keep the title.

Sounds extremely deep and intriguing

Sounds really good. I like the video a lot as well, good work.

Great video. Subtle editing. What's the original animation?

They would sue me if they found out,so i'll spell it slightly different. Di$ney in the mid 50s made an excellent tv series called 'Tomorrow Land' which was a half aninmated show displaying all these exciting new technologies and science discoveries of the time. One of the episodes was called 'Mission to Mars' and had asection about what life on Mars would actually look like

anybody get a chance to check out those tracks above? do it quick because i'll be pulling them down jan 1st
