blackmonkey This is not only some of the best guitar-based ambient music I’ve managed to come across, it’s some of the best ambient period. I love it. Favorite track: Hidden Elements ().

Branden Marshall Beautifully crafted guitar based ambience. Fits my current mood perfectly. Favorite track: Hidden Life (Winter).

I am Black Hill I've been admiring Shane's music for a long time and here is another piece of evidence why he is one of the best artists in the ambient community. It's ineffable what he created. Favorite track: Hidden Distance (Lightyears Away).

about

Hidden Elements, In The Branches' 11th album in just two years, is a blend of evolving guitar loops, textures, and undertones that move between dark and light. By the end of the album, blissful melodies have faded and a cavernous new sound is revealed, leaving behind few resemblance of the source material (live guitar improvisation).

For fans of ambient, dark ambient, and experimental space music.
