Very excited to share two songs my friend Tom Honey and I made for ENTRAILS Issue 02.
Isolation — the first release from Entrails Records. It includes two tracks, Isolation and Liminality, which will come out as a super limited edition 7in vinyl. One hundred copies only, available to order for one week Nov 26 - Dec 3. Both tracks were created to explore the lived experiences of disability, chronic illness and the emotional landscapes that form around them.
Isolation focuses on the loneliness, disorientation, and vulnerability of being hospitalized with IBD. It is about how everything gets farther away, how you become more and more inside your own head, and what that internal contraction does to a person. It holds the feeling of being cut off from the world while still being asked to endure it.
Liminality looks inward in a different way. It reflects what many disabled people navigate every day, living between worlds, never fully accommodated, never fully able to function in the pace or demands of the able bodied world. It explores those brief and fragile moments when you feel ok, then the inevitable slipping back. It sits with the experience of losing pieces of yourself inside illness, inside disability, and the ongoing work of trying to return to who you are, even as that identity keeps shifting.

Thanks for listening xo

We’re thrilled to bring you the brand new album from @gwfaa today! Tom Honey (the artist behind the project) never fails to deliver seamless organic ambient tones and elements creating calming yet interesting soundscapes every time. The album also includes two beautiful collabs with @benjamintatlow of @antarcticwastelands 🙌
Tom is also the creator of some fantastically creative song titles(!) including ‘hi, is this your cat?’ and ‘did you get them in blue or black’ suspended animation is a beautiful collection of works… we highly recommend adding the album to your weekend listening, and definitely show him some support by adding his music to your playlists or sharing with someone who needs to know his work! ✨
Written, recorded and produced by Tom Honey (‘lone runner’ & ‘i think that’s me done’ written, recorded and produced in collaboration with Ben Tatlow)

Bloomin’ LOVE DJ Alex’ show, so we are over the moon to be on his show - thanks, Alex!
…yes we’re using the same sweaty post parkrun photo again. Maybe we’ll do a post-hyrox one for the next photoshoot?

It’s been a minute. But we’re back. Our new single “The Ride” it out today on all streaming platforms.
The track dives into toxic friendships/relationships and the tricky navigation of getting out of them.

We are delighted to share the news that our new track “and finally, we reach the summit” is making its radio debut on @bbcintroducing tonight between 8-10pm on @bbcdorset
A huge thank you to BBC introducing for continuing to give a platform to independent ambient music and helping to promote our little scene!
We don’t have a professional promo shot together, so here’s a picture shortly after Edenbrook parkrun. One Tom finished first, and the other Tom… finished the run. You can decide which was which.

It’s been 72 hours since AV // TH dropped.
A massive thank you to everyone who has spent time with these sounds over the last three days. Your kind words and messages have been wonderful!
This project was a true labor of love with the brilliant @rhubiqs.sounds We set out to blend ambient soundscapes with raw field recordings to create a world you can really get lost in. Whether you’re using it to focus, decompress, or fall asleep to, we’re so glad it’s being listened to.
Those of you who are eagle-eyed: have you spotted the Tottenham and Aston Villa references hidden in the titles yet…?
If you haven’t had a chance to dive in, it’s available to listen to at all the usual places!

rhubiqs + Good Weather for an Airstrike are proud to announce their collaborative three-track EP ‘AV / TH’.
This release marks a seamless merging of two distinct ambient worlds, offering a sanctuary of stillness through immersive soundscapes, resonant drones, and the gentle rise and fall of orchestral-style swells.
The EP is a tactile exploration of field recordings blended into a tapestry of minimal, emotive textures. Designed as a soundtrack for the quiet hours, AV / TH strips away the noise of the modern world to focus on the raw beauty of tone and atmosphere. From deep, grounding foundations to vast, open-air melodies, the record invites listeners to get lost in its organic evolution.

Anyway, that’s my Oscar speech complete.
