@0: New Ambient Compilation From Coldcut

US Old & new artists feature with 50% of profits to charity 12/10/21

Coldcut have announced a new ambient compilation to be released on NinjaTune imprint Ahead Of Our Time records. It comprises music by masters of the genre, old and new, with 50% of net profits going to CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), Mind, and Black Minds Matter.

Coldcut's Matt Black said: "'@0' refers to that liminal state experienced many times where my mental and emotional stability was not solid and it felt like teetering on a zero axis about to fall into depression, or more rarely, mania. I found that ambient music, by making no psychic demands, often opened some space and with its soft fascination, subtly raised the energy, helping to avoid that downward spiral and navigate slowly up and out. @0 is a balance point."
