about

Kyle Landstra is a composer currently living in Portland, OR.  He has built a formidable discography over the last decade, with releases on a number of highly regarded ambient imprints.  His work, always recorded in real-time on hardware synthesizers, evinces a deep mastery of synthesis and structure.  

With "Allay", Kyle offers up two longform hymns to the cosmos. These pieces unfold with such grace and patience that time itself seems both suspended and accelerated.  Kyle's deeply textured synth beams move serenely through the cold reaches of space like rays from a distant sun. This is eloquent, emotive, and exhilarating ambient music from one of our most gifted contemporary practitioners.

Allow yourself the space for forgiveness, growth, patience,
and love. In turn, bear lightness and let it grow.

"Is it possible to have more patience than Kyle Landstra does when composing music? Do you think Kyle Landstra lives in the basement of a deep space observatory and sneaks glimpses into the cosmos when none of the other scientists are looking? Is Kyle Landstra actually once of those scientists? It would make a lot of dang sense, that’s all I can really offer." - Tabs Out
