focal point : Lee Noble



Lee Noble is an L.A based artist who creates haunting, spectral ambient / drone music under his given name. He is also a serious song writer who crafts melodies that never quite seem to surface, but never leave your subconscious once they get stuck there.

The environment built by Noble's music is one of curiosity rather than complacency, subverting an oft-assumed marriage between ambient music and relaxation. Whether his walls of sound come out smooth or textured by percussive patterns, there's inevitably something glacial to them.


Noble resides in a world of shadows and fog, whispered secrets and floating harmonics that are enveloped by the surrounding environs. His pieces aren’t set up for movement, slow and steady, they build as environmental cues – with a focus on imperfections in texture, hues of grey that pock mark floors and walls and a steady rise in atmospheric humidity.

Soundtrack Sublimation






Behold : A "soundtrack" composed of music from a variety of different motion picture soundtracks!

The curious thing about soundtrack music is how easily it changes and morphs into whatever you want when you're listening to it without the movie that it was composed for ... And since 'soundtrack' is such a wide umbrella of a 'genre', I decided to slap some radically opposing compositions side by side, just for some 'slap in the face' mood changes!

In a way, this play list could be a temporary soundtrack for whatever you might be doing whilst listening!

As always,


*** ENJOY ***

Driving Synths



I've found that when I'm driving, especially on long trips down seemingly endless highways, I really enjoy an accompanying "soundtrack" of vintage synthesizer music. 

Whether it's a night trip or one in broad daylight, the bright synthetic tones and beats somehow perfectly complement the mindlessly beautiful scenery rolling by, transforming what could be considered a dull journey into more of an enticing adventure!

As always,


*** ENJOY ***
