As marine eyes, Los Angeles-based Cynthia Bernard blends ambient, shoegaze, drone, field recordings & dream pop—writing from a narrative place born in the present moment yet interwoven with lessons from her past. She finds herself regularly lost and found building miniature worlds to explore the healing qualities of sound and cement important moments she has experienced while welcoming stillness in nature. She also curates a monthly mix series called ‘women of ambient’ and headed the mental health benefit compilation ‘Healing Together’ featuring 23 women artists from around the world in 2022 via Past Inside the Present.
Ki Oni is the pseudonym of ambient artist Chuck Soo-Hoo whose work inhabits a surreal space between the artificial and natural worlds. A liminal zone where the fabricated blends with the fluid and music is a river, flowing of its own accord. Soo-Hoo splits his time between working at dublab, L.A.'s freeform radio station, and co-hosting Contact Wave, the station's resident ambient and experimental music program.
Jenn Prince is a solo guitarist from southern California. She improvises lush soundscapes on electric guitar and composes intricate and ethereal fingerpicking pieces on acoustic guitar. In 2023 she released two singles and is currently working on a full length record.
Noah Klein is an adventurous artist, organizer, and naturalist born and raised in the Los Angeles Basin. They live for the relationships between soundscape and landscape, supporting local interdependent arts communities, and exploring ideas of decentralization as a practice towards emancipatory world building. Over the past 15 years they've toured extensively both solo and as part of the band Mutual Benefit, have collaborated with arts labels like Moon Glyph and Leaving Records, and have performed everywhere from basements to farms to The Getty and MoMA. They currently host a seasonal radio show on Dublab called No One Turned Away and co-organize an outdoor arts and ecology series called Living Earth.
