Past Inside the Present (PITP) is an American ambient label with a focus on offering up some of the very best ambient, drone, soundscape, and minimal music by passionate artists from across the globe.

Tracklist

Pallette ‘It’s The Little Things, Pt.I’

‘Pathways’ is a collection of four stunning loops created by the artist during an introspective period of his life. These majestic, consonant arrangements breathe slowly as fleetingly beautiful melodies; a gorgeous account of ebb and flow repetition. Pathways is cautiously sanguine and equally melancholic of which many today can personally and intimately relate to. A universal desperation and yearning for hope in a dispirited civilization.


Lamasz ‘Dégradé’

Nature Morte is a concept album created from seven nostalgic tape loops. Restricting myself to the bare minimum, I like to think I toyed with the imperfections of the hissing sounds to create beautiful overlapping textures, like a still life painting slowly taking form. – Pier-Luc


Grandbruit ‘La marée sur ton corps’

Created from intertwining guitar layers, Ruptures is a lofi catalyst; a luminous journey of eloquent patterns and hypnotic textures. The inspiration of these arrangements stem from written poetry and the intimate beauty, rhythm, technique, uniqueness, and expression it radiates.

Tapes and Topographies ‘You Saw Nothing in Hiroshima’

Influenced by classic film, and borrowing a Scott Walker lyric from the 60’s for an album title (!) , Gautreau explains that on this new release, he attempted to strip things down to find beauty in core ideas, instead of over-embellishing tracks. – Deepest Currents


36 & zakè ‘Stasis Sounds for Long-Distance Space Travel (Stage 2)’

Stasis Sounds For Long-Distance Space Travel is audibly rich in its delivery with an array of tranquil billows and patient tones. It is a journey and soundtrack that commences at Earth’s thermosphere, gently moving towards the untraveled parts of space, lushly floating on forever. – Ultimae Records
