Nebula Drift

Nebula Drift by Simon Wilkinson

Nebula Drift is a 23 minute long ambient space music track with a dark and quietly epic atmosphere. Particularly suitable as atmospheric instrumental background music for space documentaries and sci-fi feature film soundtracks or any films with a science fiction or other worldly outer space theme.

Dark Ambient Space Music: Nebula Drift (preview) by Simon Wilkinson

Also for fans of longform ambient music such as Brian Eno’s Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks or artists like Steve Roach, Lustmord, Thomas Koner, Biosphere, Stars Of The Lid, Tangerine Dream etc.

As well as being available to license for use in your documentary and film soundtracks, this long evolving piece of music is the perfect soundtrack to imaginary dark and mysterious eerie sci-fi landscapes and galaxies.

It makes ideal calming background music for meditation, study, relaxation, ASMR, sleep training or yoga.ย Many people also find it good atmospheric background music to listen to while playing roleplaying space games or as unobtrusive background music for inspiration when painting or writing.

“Take your next trip (drift) through the thick and mysterious nebulous space. While both mysterious and foreboding, there is also a reassuring angelic voice that holds you in the precarious place between safety and danger.”

Brian Bourassa

“Dark soundscape just the way I like it! I am so pleased I downloaded all of Simon’s work, truly wonderful space music.”

Gideon Morley

Watch the promo video above set to images from the European Space Agency/Hubble Telescope.

Through The Ergosphere

Through The Ergosphere by Simon Wilkinson

Through The Ergosphere is a dark ambient space music instrumental that’s particularly suitable as atmospheric background music for filmmakers of space documentaries, sci-fi features or any films with subject matter based around the universe, gravity, science, UFOs, space travel, outer space and the cosmos. Also suitable for documentaries with dark subject matter, e.g. conspiracies, corruption, the illuminati etc.

Dark Ambient Space Music: Through The Ergosphere by Simon Wilkinson

Similar in feel and atmosphere to the hypnotic and ethereal ending of Stanley Kubrick’s epic film 2001: A Space Odyssey or Brian Eno’s Apollo: Atmospheres And Soundtracks. Put it on headphones and drift away to dark and mysterious sci-fi landscapes and galaxies.

Ideal music for meditation, study, triggering ASMR, sleep, relaxation or yoga, or to listen to while playing roleplaying space games like Eve Online.

Also for fans of longform ambient music artists such as Brian Eno, Steve Roach, Thomas Koner, Lustmord, Biosphere, Stars Of The Lid, Tangerine Dream and other ambient textural music and soundscapes.
