Guidelines to posting:

1. Please refrain from posting rhythmic music and beats. These will most likely be removed.

2. Submission source: -Try and submit high-quality material/original sources (no promo channels) such as Soundcloud and Bandcamp. YT links are allowed but not preferred due to transcoding issues, poor album experiences, and inconsistent tags/collections/etc.

3. Original works are allowed. Use "Artist - Title" format. Mark own work with self-promo flair, for other posts/topics use flair too.

4. Try and help others discover new artists rather than posting genre standards such as Stars of the Lid, Tim Hecker, Aphex Twin, William Basinski, Brian Eno, Gas, etc. (New works from these artists are allowed.) Similarly most playlists will be removed unless the focus is on unique content and does not come from a spammy source.

5. ASMR and other non-music will likely be removed as there's plenty of other appropriate places for that.

Drone music and field recordings are welcome. For music that doesn't de-emphasize melody, rhythm, and form but incorporates ambient elements or is similar to ambient such as downtempo, lounge & chill-out, new age, neoclassical, chillstep, chillwave, ambient techno, ambient/chill house, illbient, atmospheric drum n' bass, ambient IDM or post rock, please visit their respective subreddits or try /r/ambientmusic and /r/ambientbeats, for more general ambient subs.

Please be sure to report posts that do not fit the rules to help the moderation team.
