I put out a couple of tracks of gradually evolving ambience using my generative chess music program. This time based on the longest game in world championship history, game 6 of the Carlsen-Nepommiatchi 2021 match.
First track is maybe a bit William Basinski as far as FFOs go

It’s a big day for psych rock fans

Resavoir & Matt Gold - Horizon
Out a few weeks ago, but subject to International Anthem’s usual three-week streaming delay.
Will Miller, who’s worked with SZA, Whitney, and more, and Matt Gold with a love letter to their shared admiration for ‘60s and ‘70s Brazilian music. Sunny and expansive.
