Episode 7.22 /// Featuring Abul Mogard and Ah! Kosmos & Hainbach
<p>In this program, I’ve got two top-shelf artists and their amazing works that we’ll be highlighting on the program. First up, the incomparable Abul Mogard has reissued his 2022 release “In a Few Places Along the River”, and whether it’s your first time hearing the album or your one-hundredth, it’s captivating all the same. And later in the program, the extremely imaginative and inventive duo that is Ah! Kosmos and Hainbach are back with a second full-length LP entitled “Gentle Hum” and is chock full of all the experimental goodness that we’ve come to expect!</p><p>Plus new music from Dionisaf & Deep Dive Sound, memorysound, Till Hillbrecht & Zimoun, David Cordero and more. Strap in and make yourself comfortable. Join us for the next hour for global ambient music, on The Relay Station.</p><p></p><p>Artist information</p><p>Abul Mogard</p><p>If you’ve more than a cursory level familiarity with the ambient scene, the name Abul Mogard will likely be familiar to you — an Italian electronic and ambient composer known for long, slow-building melancholic drones, dense with textures and grit that give the sense of the earth trembling beneath you. His music has this sense of being caught in a slow-motion free-fall above a dark cavernous depth, where the bottom can scarcely be seen and a curious uneasiness lures you in with its slow-burn suspense. The album “In A Few Places Along the River” was originally issued in 2022, comprised of three long-form pieces composed between 2019 and 2022, and now remastered by Rafael Anton Irisarri and cut to vinyl by Lupo. It’s a mastery-level ambient album that carries with it a certain gravitas and an alluring feeling of foreboding with its dark cinematic drones and laggardly evolutionary build-up. Mogard’s 2026 re-issue encapsulates one of the very things I love about ambient music — its unhurried cadence to create an all-encompassing environment in which to lose yourself in, and the patience expressed through Mogard’s slow hand and deliberate choices through both analog and digital synthesis. It’s a fantastic album that deserves a spot in your collection! From his 2026 reissue of “In a Few Places Along the River”, here’s Abul Mogard with the track “Against a White Cloud”, here on The Relay Station. </p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://abulmogard.bandcamp.com/">https://abulmogard.bandcamp.com/</a><a target="_blank" href="https://soft-echoes.bandcamp.com/">https://soft-echoes.bandcamp.com/</a></p><p>Ah! Kosmos & Hainbach</p><p>If you are unaware of the collaborative duo that is Ah! Kosmos and Hainbach, sit up, pay attention, and take note! Ah! Kosmos is the experimental sound artist and composer Başak Günak, and her creative companion is the brilliant and extremely prolific sound designer and experimentalist Stefan Goetsch who operates under the moniker Hainbach. Independently, the pair have extensive backgrounds in experimental music, sound installation and design, making music out of the unmusical. Whether it’s nuclear test equipment, dolphin filters, or any number of other distinctly non-musical equipment, its in those spaces that Ah! Kosmos and Hainbach set out like explorers to recover strange, unusual, and intriguing sounds and patterns which make their way into their experimental music compositions. With a deep foundation of patience and careful excavation, they extract textures and tones that might normally be considered as noise or incidental artifacts, and treat them as integral living elements of the sonic realm. There is a very real sense that the music is alive and has its own consciousness and its own voice — industrial and test equipment given a moment to express their own unique language of beeps, blips, scratches, and hums. It’s a fascinating musical listening experience that is approachable, intriguing, and thoroughly enjoyable — and both Günak and Goetsch, in their brilliance, have also made it accessible to a wider range of electronic music lovers, earning it a spot on my 2026 essentials list of experimental ambient albums. From the album “Gentle Hum”, here’s Ah! Kosmos and Hainbach with the track “In a Pattern Like a Shell”, here on The Relay Station. </p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://ahkosmos.bandcamp.com/">https://ahkosmos.bandcamp.com/</a><a target="_blank" href="https://hainbach.bandcamp.com/">https://hainbach.bandcamp.com/</a></p><p></p><p>Playlist</p><p>* [0:00] INTRODUCTION</p><p>* [00:01:38] “Places That Never Met, Yet Remember” by Dionisaf & Deep Dive Sound from “Paths That Forgot the Map” (Chitra Records, 2026)</p><p>* [00:04:40] “Hope” by memorysound from “Fading Bright” (Perceptual Tapes, 2026)</p><p>* [00:08:14] “Warp 3” by Till Hillbrecht & Zimoun from “Warp Slow” (Room 40, 2026)</p><p>* [00:12:04] Featured Artist Segment</p><p>* [00:14:15] “Against a White Cloud” by Abul Mogard from “In a Few Places Along the River (2022 reissue)” (Soft Echoes, 2026)</p><p>* [00:25:26] “Nebel” by David Cordero from “La Imagen Muda” (Noray Records, 2026)</p><p>* [00:28:24] “To Yield” by Kreng from “Wormhole” (Miasmah Recordings, 2026-05-07)</p><p>* [00:30:48] “Veillands” by Yulyseus from “Nothing Under Heaven” (n5MD, 2026)</p><p>* [00:35:02] Featured Artist Segment</p><p>* [00:37:28] “In A Pattern Like A Shell” by Ah!
