Leeds Ambient Trance Community is one of the most iconic electronic collectives out there today, because of their events as well as the Forever Gone series. It’s been coming out via Extremely Gone’s bandcamp since 2024 – the first two volumes focusing on edits. But the new Forever Gone vol.3 features 13 original tracks from local legends like Princess Elf Bar and Vision:Express (who’ve also curated the selection). They’re joined by Earthangelbaby from Naarm in collaboration with Dwams from Eora. Also in the fray are Astral Bandit, station44, Erin Hopes, and I love the beautiful track from Nahi Mitti (pictured).
As with previous releases, all proceeds go to PAFRAS (a charity that provides support and advice to asylum seekers in Leeds) and Leeds Anti Raids (organising resistance to the hostile immigration environment).
