A spiral of auditory goodness.
Blessed to have your authenticity in my crew. Enlightened by the lightness of your daaaaark sense of humor that brightens your sea of compassion.
I recommend dialing Mykl on the groove meter for a good chill and authentic sensibility

What can I say about this hot, smart, talented man?
Nothing.
Kidding...I'm really kidding. Mykl is a pretty darn kool kat. Met him on Tribe and have really enjoyed all the time we have spent together. He's deep, thoughtful, creative and darn right sexy. I am so glad our paths have crossed, he has definitely made my life a little more fun and enlightened.
I can't believe he is moving down..south... but hey that's what rental cars are for.
I'll miss you my davidsylviandeadcandancepetermurphyambientmusicmakingwithouttracksfriend. What was that song at 30 minutes 20 seconds ;p ?

Embodying the spectrum of life
Transcending through darkness
Illumination grows bright
Nurturing all with love & light
Emanating colorful vibrations to the energy stream
Euphoric perception you beam
Pulsating rhythms of continuous beat
Electric frequencies move our feet
Surpassing limits of conscious tempo
Dance together and let it flow

It has been a year since my first CD "Luminous" was released on AtmoWorks. And now it's time for my second CD on AtmoWorks titled "Interra". Available as a downloadable file or CD. www.AtmoWorks.com in the early part of November.
The new release embarks on a journey that Luminous started. It goes deeper into the ambient realms with spacious textures and tribal rhythms with some soft ethereal vocals. I hope you enjoy the journey. In the music page of my websiteI have added several clips from tracks off the new CD. ambientportalmusic1.com/
Here is how Vir Unis from Atmoworks describes the new release:
"....Mykl Neufeld, aka AmbientPortal, has finished his second AtmoWorks album
to date and is scheduled for an November release. Interra, the new album, is
an audiophile's journey through low washes of subtle electronic textures that define
and give clarity to even lower drones that ebb and flow, providing a
natural direction and tonal narrative for the listener.
This is deep and low drone work, but there's so much high end sonic detail
that really keeps the mind tethered to the emanating sounds leaving
the listener hovering in its space mesmerized by the magnetic pull of its
auditory gestalt. Yes, this is magnetic work , electronic ambient space music
at its finest and realized once again as an electronic current, something
which lives and breathes, seemingly organic yet fully electronic...."

As well I also have a track on a great compilation from Ambi-sonic titled "Broken Ear". Ambi-sonic is a collective of downtempo / ambient dj's from the bay area keeping the chill and keeping it real. The compilation available now is a nice blend of up and coming artist from the bay area. My track "Gate D" closes out the compilation check it out and get yourself a copy at www.ambi-sonic.com Thanks to all who continue to support ambient music and the artists that create and share it. Enjoy and I hope you like and please feel free to pass along to others who might be interested in ambient music.

Hello all,
I hope everyone's holiday was excellent and you were able to enjoy great times with great friends.
I wanted to thank all who came out in support of my CD release party back on Nov 18th. It was a great showing of people to come and chill and listen to some fine ambient music. Included in the program was DJ DFTram, vocalist M Mara Ann, guitar player Travis Ortiz, and violinist Emily Palen. It was a great time had by all.
I was also invited to dj at a friends party the day after Thanksgiving, it was called ANEW.... and it was great. Thanks to all who came out to that as well. It was a pleasure to play the chill lounge for a early Saturday morning chill set.
Well now it's time to tell you what's going on in ambientPORTAL NEWS. Right now working on some new material with vocalist Jill Shaw, and hopefully working with M Mara Ann again on some songs, and Emily Palen with some of her fine violin playing. lot's of ideas running in my head right now on how I would like the new CD to sound.
Working on the CD artwork and booklet, trying to figure out the best way to have a eco-friendly CD package with all of the artwork and see how much that will set me back, but I feel it's important to try to work on something like this and as an artist help the environment along the way.
Also up right now on my webiste...... www.ambientportalmusic.com
is the *NEW* video for Luminous.
The concept of the video is that "the spirit" played by M Mara Ann, is talking to me in a dream and sending me the music that is heard in Luminous. Itw as shot in black and white, and it was a blast to film with Mara and the help of Ali my girlfriend. Hope you enjoy.
Talk to you all soon,
-Chill
