About Ambient Discourses // conversations with musicians and composers
Ambient Discourses is a podcast with long-form conversations with musicians and composers who create musical experiences and sonic landscapes in the ambient, neoclassical, new age, and other peripheral music genres. We talk in-depth about topics like inspiration, the creative process, and other interesting conversational topics; and we play a few tracks from their latest album. Each conversation is also paired with an episode on The STOLACE | RELAY STATION — a global ambient music program, where we feature artists from around the world at stolace.com and our channel at YouTube.

A conversation with Oberlin [Alexander Holz] // Ambient Discourses • Episode 2.13
Ambient Discourses // Episode 2.12
A conversation with Alexander Holz of the electronic ambient project Oberlin. In addition to talking about his brand new releases “Von Wegen” — he shared about his ambient rig and preparing for concerts, his improv approach to composition, the necessity of lowering one’s ego, the balancing act of capitalism with music, and other interesting topics of conversation. It was a thoroughly enjoyable conversation and would have it all over again given the opportunity! You can find Oberlin’s music out at https://oberlin.bandcamp.com (https://oberlin.bandcamp.com).
