Ambient Discourses is a podcast with long-form conversations with musicians and composers who create musical experiences and sonic landscapes in the ambient, neoclassical, new age, and other peripheral music genres. We talk in-depth about topics like inspiration, the creative process, and other interesting conversational topics; and we play a few tracks from their latest album. Each conversation is also paired with an episode on The STOLACE | RELAY STATION — a global ambient music program, where we feature artists from around the world at stolace.com and our channel at YouTube.

Interview with Jorn Swart of Doeke // conversations about the beauty in small details, working in the flow state, learning to let go, and more.

My guest on the program is Jorn Swart of the neoclassical project Doeke — spelt D O E K E — Doeke creates remarkably beautiful neoclassical piano compositions, has a delicate touch and sensibilities steeped in nostalgia and memory. Our conversation took us through splendid places, like the beauty found in small details, working within the flow state, learning to let go and balance the ego, and so many other fascinating topics.
