Beautiful, ambient electronica since 1997. Recording as Digitonal, Alphabox, Of the Night Sky.

Incidentally. I've only posted announcements here for some time and will be leaving this platform for good. I urge you to join the much healthier community of music lovers that actually talk about music over at the blue place. Find me as Digitonal on there.

Happy #BandcampFriday everyone. I have some new music released today - my first record as Of the Night Sky. The Coastal EP is a four tracks of #suffolkcoast inspired #ambientmusic, beautifully packaged as a split album on @_handstitched Records.

Coming back to Twitter for a night to bask in schadenfreude.

@steiniyagya I've done a handful of tracks with vocals and they're amongst my favourites. Do it.

Today I had a lovely morning at a local farm zoo seeing lots of cool animals and then came home and voted the Tories out of Suffolk, hopefully forever. Good day.

@benjammin22 Happy birthday Ben!

@BTCipswich @shamebanduk @Adnams @UniofSuffolk @IpswichCEx @allaboutipswich @itsvivalavisa @sectoriaco @diymagazine @UOSUnion Great weekend - saw some top stuff and it lifts the vibe of the whole town. It could *really* use an electronica stage next year though.

@ChineseRoom @SWTD_Game Just bought a ps5 to play this.

Superlative remix

@phylum_sinter @__proem__ Intech grid ftw

[Andrew Dobson @digitonal]

@__proem__ Every now and again I have a problem which I think the octatrack can solve. Then I have two problems.

The only radio show that played us like we were a massive global artist. Eternally grateful.

[Echoes @EchoesRadio]

WHO ARE THOSE GUYS?

Butch Cassidy doesn't know, but you know because we know

And you know because we played them for you. We brought you artists you would’ve never heard of, and even some artists you thought you didn’t like until you heard them on Echoes. But let’s hear this from a listener in our 2024 survey.

"Echoes has also introduced me to so many artists while pushing the boundaries to what I like and tolerate. I never thought I would be a Taylor Swift fan but her song from “Where The Crawdads Sing” converted me. I would not be buying tickets to see Heather Woods Broderick. I would not know about Otyken and Ozric Tentacles. I would never know about Jade Warrior’s “Way of the Sun.” Echoes is a tapestry of music that like a magic carpet takes me on an audiovisual sonic journey through the mind and spirit exploring the further edges of the galaxy before taking me back home and reminding me what is important."

Do I need to say more?

Donate now and I promise, we will be introducing you to new artists and remembering the pioneers.

And don't forget that we have gifts, including:

• The Complete Hammock Collection on CD
• The Complete David Helpling
• Steve Roach’s Structures from Silence 40th Anniversary Deluxe 3CD set
• And much more!

Brand new release out https://t.co/CUQQCDfkZz #BandcampFriday

[Andrew Dobson @digitonal]

Happy release day for the smashing new @arts_point genome compilation, including a new Alphabox track by me in melodic glitch mode. Top notch, proper crunchy electronica here plus a sample pack.

Going to try out some new Alphabox stuff at the Colchester EMOM on the 13th. Quality lineup there.
