Ambient Spotlight #6: Locust - Weathered Well


This album is one of the reasons for me to get interested in ambient music and to start making ambient music myself. I heard it at the end of a party when my friend TC was playing this album in the room where I and some other people slept over. The track ‘Prospero’ did it for me, but also tracks like ‘Moist Moss’ and ‘Still’ have an atmosphere that I really like.

I’m talking about the album ‘Weathered Well’ from Locust alias Mark van Hoen. It was released in 1994 on Apollo records (sub-label of R&S records). Another great Locust album is ‘Morning light’ which is quite different. The songs have a more poppy, acoustic feel (including vocals) with an electronic edge.
