It’s embarrassing to admit that I only just realized IKSRE stands for I Keep Seeing Rainbows Everywhere. If there ever was a perfect description for Phoebe Dubar’s music, that’s it. Through immersive, calming soundscapes, she transmits prismatic visions into the world, creating welcoming spaces for dreaming. Recent collaborations with Party Store and marine eyes further expand the palette, adding […]

On the opening missive from the collaborative album between awakened souls and From Overseas, serenity is an endless sky; it’s the feeling of being suspended in midair, weightless and unencumbered by gravity. Aeriform drones spread like golden wings, fueled by the anticipation of an earthly embrace. Lilting […]
When I first heard marine eyes this spring, I connected with the vibrant warmth that permeates her recordings. Her music opens up beautiful sonorous worlds where listeners can find respite, an aural cocoon drifting in space as the soothing tones wash through the air. On her debut, idyll, she created a beautiful aquatic ambient world […]
