Cover art of "5-Space"


The Drone Cycle
was a monthly series of ambient drone concerts dreamSTATE performed in 2000 with a different special guest each show. In 2024 dreamSTATE are releasing a 12-track album with music selected from each show. A piece will be added each month from the original recordings to celebrate The Drone Cycle's 2nd "Chromatic Anniversary". Each track will have a unique cover embroidered by fiber-artist Lynn Harrigan. You'll find all the details on Bandcamp now.

PLEASE NOTE that each monthly digital track will be free until the entire album is complete in December 2024 and then the price will be $6 effective January 2025.

There will also be a CD release with all 12 tracks available in late December 2024.

dreamSTATE really want you to join them on this journey in sound throughout 2024. The original Drone Cycle was a significant period in their musical growth, as they improvised each month with amazing special guests. Come along for the trip...

The Drone Cycle is also being released to Spotify, Apple Music and all the other streaming platforms.

Poster for THE AMBiENT PiNG's 25th Anniversary

THE AMBiENT PiNG returns to Handlebar in Toronto on Monday August 19th, 2024 for its 25th Anniversary show! (Doors at 8pm, 1st set 9pm - PWYC)

Featured are the first three artists who ever played the PiNG, way back in 1999, and all are still active sonic performers: Wally Jericho will bring his horn, iPad synths and live-looping to open the show, then dreamSTATE will weave an electronic sound tapestry with their special guest Kurt Swinghammer, and finally, Planet of the Loops leader Andrew Aldridge will launch into a high orbit and then will be joined by the other artists to create a Canadian Space Station.

All of these artists are also dreamSTATE's special guests in The Drone Cycle - recorded live at THE AMBiENT PiNG in 2000 and being released throughout 2024. dreamSTATE's piece with Andrew will be released on August 22nd.
