Alaskan Tapes

Alaskan Tapes is the ambient music project of Brady Kendall, an artist renowned for crafting immersive soundscapes that resonate with a poignant sense of introspection and tranquility. Hailing from Toronto, Canada, the project came to life in 2015 and has since been carving a unique niche within the ambient music sphere. Through the use of minimalist piano melodies, ethereal strings, and subtle electronic textures, Alaskan Tapes invites listeners into a serene auditory environment, often reflective of the vast and untouched landscapes its name evokes.

The project's discography is a testament to Kendall's artistic evolution and his dedication to sonic purity. Releases such as "Dustlight / 光の塵 / Afterglow" and "After the Flood" display a mastery in blending organic and synthetic sounds to create aural experiences that are as haunting as they are beautiful. With compositions like "on my new piano" and "All We Can't See (Piano Version)," Alaskan Tapes demonstrates a refined approach to piano-driven pieces, complementing re-recorded versions of earlier works such as "Notes" and "Places." The contemplative singles "Who Tends a Garden" and "Library Fields" further showcase Alaskan Tapes' ability to transport listeners through musically rendered narratives, fostering a space for reflection and emotional connection.
