Dear Gravity & Raphah - Chronos (2026)


Another transatlantic collaborations in recent months makes it to the blog. This time it's a short EP made by Mike Graff aka Dear Gravity from the States and the artist known as Raphah from UK. It is short, but it's also so beautiful like a drop of dew in the morning sunshine.

As is clearly stated in the EP's title, the main theme of music here is the concept of time. The slow, introspective compositions feel like they are meant to make you experience the time flowing around you, from nothingness to nothingness. But while this concept is dreadful (to me and I'm sure to most people), the artists turn it into a thing of beauty. Thick layers of ambient with occasional droplets of piano sounds always get me. The album's slow pace and beautiful combination of neoclassical and ambient sound is a perfect way to end a day.

Chronos costs 5 USD.

Dear Gravity & We Dream of Eden - Holocene (2022)


Two years after their previous release, Riven, two ambient artists - Minnesota-based Mike Graff aka Dear Gravity and Tennessee's Kirk Smith (We Dream of Eden) created together a short but beautiful EP. Released by Echoes Blue Music Holocene makes a fantastic blend of delicate ambient and neoclassical soundscape.

The short album depicts "the concept of passing life down to the next generation" and tries to pour the artists' personal feelings onto the audience. Musically speaking it's an electronic soundscape that is first of all moody and, secondly, ready too strike awe in the audience with the tasteful use of synth sounds. Although there are traces of melodies (like the leitmotif in Adventus), the album's main goal has to be creating this audio place where a listener can get lost for a second - the slower, calmer tracks here (like Tragedy & Triumph) and their homogeneous, thick soundscape surely work that way.

Holocene costs 5 USD.

Country: Minnesota/Tennessee, US
