Best of Planetarium 2022, Pt. 1

feldhus 2 Comments

Yes, you read that right. The Planetarium clock is a year behind everyone else. It’s still hard to catch up to recent releases, but a thorough search hopefully resulted in a best-of selection that captures the essence of Planetarium, ambient, modern classical and atmospheric electronic music in 2022. These 22 tracks are all from the first half of that year. Six of them are debuts, the rest are replays from previous or forthcoming, already produced mixes.

Mittagsgold

feldhus Leave a comment

My contribution to Piano Day 2023 could not make it in time, because I needed longer to catch up with releases (in fact, I’m still lagging one year behind at this point). The result, “Mittagsgold” (Gazania), has a staggering 31 pieces, though, which are mostly piano-led, but this new personal favorite Planetarium set also contains some cinematic ambient and light post-rock tracks ringing in the spring season. Hopefully, you’re as excited as I am about this mix!

One year after part 2 of the retrospective on 2021 was released, I have an extra set for you covering the second half of 2021 and underseen gems. Catching up on the recent stuff has been difficult, so please be patient. It might not happen anytime soon, but from what I’ve heard so far, 2022 was just as amazing. Looking forward to do the deep dive again, as I did with 2021 here.
