Paul Asbury Seaman
One of the top ambient albums of 2024, it strikes the perfect balance of unobtrusive and delightful, sometimes breathtaking in its musical beauty and the obvious sensitivity of two seasoned artists spontaneously responding to the other. Unlike the endless droning of so many so-called sleep albums, Cloud Ornament is a genuine musical accomplishment, spiritually healing and nurturing while, yes, gently putting you to sleep. Or for other relaxing/meditative purposes, as needed.
Favorite track: Lamplight Chime.
