Quote:
Ambient sounds are unique and special, but their veritable ubiquity hides them from casual perception. Ambient artifacts are obscure because a minority of perceptive people have reflected long enough on the various stimulus feeds to discern their existence and not take them for granted. This obscurity has had the additional effect of creating a certain esoteric charm to the genre of music called Ambient, and this has been a charismatic force binding many of us to study ambient sounds and Ambient music more actively.
