DREAMPEACE - Dawn Shifter

- So this is 'DreamPeace Week' I think...
Dreampeace is a project I have been working on consistently for years. Over the next week, Ill re-release 5 full 'albums' (its not really music, per se...) with the intent of drawing some more attention to it.
Ive turned off monetization on this so hopefully it isn't interrupted by a bunch of shitty ads. Dont know if it will work though...
Its vibes that act as a soundtrack to your day. Its meant for time where everything is 'too much'... its not meant to ask much from you, so if youre going through pain or cant sleep, maybe it will be of some help?
Frankly: the impossible scale of the universe often reminds me how silly it is to try to be 'successful' or any of that stuff... we're here for such a short period of time, I just love making sounds that express my gratitude, regardless of style. Dreampeace is just another example of that.
This first one here is called 'Dawn Shifter' and I tend to use it when Im travelling and am in strange hotel rooms. Its a bit 'darker' in tone than some of the others, but I'm putting it up first because its the one Ive had on rotation recently. Some of the others work better for me when the weather is different than it is now =)
I have 4 more in the works, so Ill let you know when they're done...Eventually Ill release them all as cool vinyls, but Ive got lots to do in the meantime so for the time being, here it is.
If you want longer versions for sleeping, please visit the DreamPeace UA-cam channel:

I have PTSD and suffer from night-terrors, I'm medicated for this but the medication isn't a cure. Nothing is. Your ambient work has been a literal lifesaver for me though. After an episode or if I'm feeling particularly scared to go to bed I put your ambient work on and it helps me feel grounded, I can feel the love you put into each piece. Your music is a safety-line for me. Sorry if this is oversharing but I just want you to know your music is such a blessing and comfort (to so many). Thank you ✌️
Thanks for sharing, I know someone who might also benefit from this the same way!
I‘m glad music impacts UA-cam this positive way! I wish you all the best!
You can also try ‘Liminal Sleep’ by Sigur Rós. Great for relaxation and falling asleep.
It isn’t called oversharing. It’s called courage.
Right there with you, from all the way over here.
Devin is probably used to it. I've done it a few times. What can we say, it's a big thing, but it is what it is and he does what he does, what is made by him and his team has been impacting us for years, saving and guiding and validating our lives. He's my favourite, and one of gods i bet. I get grounded by it too. Terria has been grounding me lately and bringing me back to a type of self that's got alot of dirt and anger on and around it. He's a great man, thank god he does all this, that first quarantine song, came right on my 40tg birthday. It was magical after the covid crap was put on it. So moving. So perfect and beautiful, and so telling.
I want to smell him one day lol o told him that once, well wrote it, when he came to Melbourne in 2019 I think it was. He laughed, said he was stinking pretty bad. It's just a think of mine, smelling things.... Hahahah of course this is courage, vulnerability, and gratitude as well as a great share about a great man, doing great things for mankind. Seemingly small to some. But creating such sounds to sooth, validate, ground and enliven, well it's ever so transforming and needed and he is heavenly. And I'm sure very very human. Love him. What he shares of himself anyway.... My life was changed by him, and will ever be so, thank God. Coz there's not much else I can trust and let in right now. May I find a similar man to share some life with on this earth. Blessings to him and all and you 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
You are one humble dude, Devin. If you "just love making sounds that express (your) gratitude, regardless of style", then please allow me, a random nobody on the Internet, to express my gratitude for your choice to share these sounds with us. You are hands down my favorite artist.
I'm still fangirling about giving you a hug after one of your DTP concerts in Poland some 12 years ago.
I dream about giving him a hug one day (literally). From SYL to Snuggles I'm down for the ride.
my walks to not kill my self and stay in the present are only because i have this in my headphones.... my mental health is at a crossroads and the fight gets way to difficult sometimes so to have a extra bit of help to motivate or clearance of terrible bullshit that seems to enter my head. Thank you Devin for this work and releasing it so others can find there own inner peace...
Man, there are waaaaaaaaaaay too many good things awaiting you in this life, to contemplate.. that other route.. the outcome of which is very uncertain.. Keep hanging on, things will improve.
There's a german ambient duo called Troum. Their music is darker than this type of ambient, but it's incredibly beautiful. Their music has helped me in darkness, and in creativity, for a long time now.
What the fuck is wrong with us? Why are there so many of us wanting to die? I'm genuinely confused about it, yet i think about it every day
Look after yourself mate.brisbane oz
Sending so much love to you dear heart brother, glad you finally feel the light. May it grow and expand out of your heart until it envelops you. Cast out the darkness and the voices. They are your voice. I am now basking in the light and was someone who had such voices and darkness over 20 years ago trying to get me to destroy myself. Call in the light and cast out all darkness or even God source or your angels. They need permission to wake us of from the nightmare or dream we are caught in. You are a loved and cherished child of God, nothing can touch you unless you believe it. May you remember the truth that lies in your heart and soul and it set you free 🙏 Love and blessings,
Heaven Sent 💗

This is really just the perfect day for this to come out, I've needed this
Is there anyone cooler than Devin? I can’t get over how thoughtful and selfless this is, I already know I’m going to be coming back to this very often
I don't know how you, personally, measure success against the infinite cosmos, but if it helps, I greatly appreciate the priceless gift to the world that is your music. Thank you.
Well looks like I’ve just found my go to ambient music for studying. And from one of my favourite musicians too. What a treat 🤘❤️
I so f-n appreciate you Dev. Your attunement to the force has guided me through many doors I was unable to open on my own
“The best help I ever received…was by my own two hands.”
Cheers.
So this is what heaven sounds like. I need this so much right now. Thank you Devin. You always nailing what we need. Its like we are all connected. Love from Argentina.
@willd.7047 No 👍
Playing this while working, my job doesn't seem to be so bad 😁🤗🙌🙌
Feeling a bit overwhelmed lately, having this on in the background while I work is genuinely helping with that. I'm going to enjoy Dreampeace week.
Podcast promise F U L F I L L E D
Just so you know Devin, these always help me get thru the day, Life has taken a sh!t on me but these seem to come out right at the correct time. Please know you are VERY appreciated Devin. Love from FL, USA
imagine being eternal and knowing what will last and knowing where excess is. Knowing the difference of just one degree off center, knowing after time where that would lead, because time isnt. Everything that was made was made through you. people would take this advice and think its critisizing
Much love to the goat Heavy Devy. Thank you for sharing
I'm just discovering Dreampeace through its own channel after watching your announcement. While I do not suffer from anxiety or insomnia, it actually helps me get my mornings going. It's a good, peaceful way of waking up. Thank you.
Hi Devin, thx for this heartly gift! There are not so many Personalities, who fullfill a place in the emptyness of my existence... you are one of them.
Thank you for your music, inspiration, shows and kindly words after the show, were you give us some minutes of your worthship. I am not religious, but if there is really a god somewhere outside, then he may bless you for eternity.
Sending my love to you, Devin, and anyone else who reads this.
Yes, please. The crackling through the dust on the vinyl will harmonize extremely well with such soundscapes. Thank you and Peace&Love.
I just started seriously pursuing ambient guitar and push myself to do one thing every week. It’s so good to relax having a neurological disease and a demand job. Thanks, Devin, this is wonderful. ❤
Right on time, EVERYTIME ❤
Thank you very much Devin. This is a great gift and so much appreciated. You are one of a kind and you are such a generous soul. This is why we love you so much. Sending you a big hug from Ottawa.
Much love and respect and appreciation Devin! ☮️💚🎶
Let the journey begin ✨🪐✨
you turned off the shitty ads!!! for this (any many other things) you have my respect and support
Love it Devin! I must let you know that you are kind of a Guru to me and I imagine many others as well. Your music and ideas have moved and transported me to realms like no other artist. You are loved and appreciated my friend and I know you express the same to your audience through your creations. This kind of soundscape transcends the conventional notions of 'music' and is so enjoyable and beneficial when meditating/trying to sleep/getting high etc etc. Thank you brother 😄👌
these have been my go to lately when i want to fill the air with something but also need to let my brain have some rest. thanks for these
Beautiful...Thank you for these, thank you for being you my man. You were there years ago when I needed Alien blasting in my headphones to make sense of everything. You blew my mind with Ghost, Ki and Casualties of Cool, all of which I still listen too now often. And now this just suits me and my more ambient way of life completely. It's like you changed with me or something - feel super connected to you. Feel like I know you so well. Love you lots
Saw your video update yesterday and stoked to see this, great start to the week!
Love it, Devin, and I'm 100% on board for this on vinyl! Making ambient, ethereal, chilled out music like this is my favorite way to reduce my own stress and anxiety.
This will be the soundtrack to my day today! 🙌🙌🙌
Mate, you should definitely monetise this. For all your hard work, you deserve it. Although I must say it is heartwarming the way you care about your fans and listeners.
I agree.

Devin mentioned on his update video that Dreampeace was specifically made for trauma sufferers in mind as "music that doesn't demand anything from the listener", so it's possible having the ebbs & flows of the ambience interrupted every 5 minute with a Bounty paper towel advertisement doesn't fit into that vision.
Devin strikes me as the kind of person who is not financially motivated when it comes to creating.
Considering lately I've been wanting some ambient stuff to fall asleep too, and most of them I've found get interrupted by ads, I'm very grateful that these aren't monetized.

Katie Walden
The girl who wrote you how my friend Phil who died and showed me your music. He listened to you on lofe support just before he left us. I played him that death of music piece. I imagine him playing in heaven, all your stuff amd more. He always loved your funny little lines...
Like,
So just shut your face!
And take a seat!
Coz after all your just talking meat!
And music.....
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He would have loved your ambient stuff...
Thank you.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Love from Katie from Melbourne, who wanted to smell you hahahaha
Nothing but love and respect for our Devvy. 🔥💪
ill try this for Work from Home music in the background. Sometimes it gets lonely working from home all week. Thank you!
THIS!
I often go back to listening to relaxing music from different frequencies to calm my chronic tinnitus as well as my IBS episodes... but this hits on a different level. Devin is a true musical genius, i'm just glad we're sharing the same timeline.
Thanks and God bless.
We gotta love devin. One of the most authetic people in the industry. Gonna give this a try! ❤
Why does this feel like someone's massaging my brain?
Time to relax. Thank you Devin.
I listen to this because I am looking for peace, peace from all of the Pain. Thank you Devin.
Thank you for the musical gifts, Devin. This project is truly the equivalent of a warm and comforting musical blanket to wrap around one’s soul.
Hey Devin.. This Dreampeace really is special the swelling of the harmony of the woman's voice and how it fluctuates.. It really just brings all of the sadness out! Thank you!
Through this Devy... Vangelis' work still lives! Wonderful ambience
I'm emotionally drained and tired, and have nothing good to say. So I'll say this:
Thank you Devin, very cool.
Gonna subscribe to that new channel for sleep too.
Thank you for being who you are Devin 💖
Wall of love sound 🦾
Thank you for all this beautiful music for all of us who need something like this to calm and relax our brains when the world gets to be too much.
I'm a Massage Therapist and will be utilizing this music for my space to help people relax. Thank you again!! ❤
Thanks for mr. Berty Ashley for adressing me that there is a thing like this❤
I'm curious about what an actual Dark Ambient album from Devin would sound like, Cryo Chamber style, something that truly dives into the abyss and doesn't try to swim back up. That would be neat.
I left a message on one of these Dreampeace videos asking Devin too checkout Cryo Chamber if he ever has the time.. But he's a work aholic so i doubt if he ever will.. Im a Subscriber too Cryo Chamber myself Amazing channel with Great Ambient works..
Def gonna be dreamin to this piece
The sounds, the feeling, the idea behind, pure wonder, simply beautiful from beginning to end. Thanks!!!
Devin, I am terrified beyond rational though to fly, but was able to make it very recently to Hawaii and back greatly in part to listening to my flight mix which is pretty much Sober/Quarantine Project 1-9 on repeat. Thank you and this will now officially be added to my flight mix. Umbasa.
Love ur stuff you are one of a kind we need more gifted people like you on earth \m/
had a great time coding and listening to this, thanks a lot Devy!
Thank you Devy
I honestly love these soundscapes you are releasing. Just like Snuggles they offer this music hug that comforts me when I don't want to listen to insane guitar solos, screaming vocals and drums getting the shit beat out of them.
Thank you so much for sharing this. You don't know how much I needed this today. Within the first minute a wave of emotion crashed through me. Sitting at my desk at work holding back tears. Life is so overwhelming sometimes, and I am finding this to be piece to be incredibly resonant right now. I want to just be wrapped up in this sound and taken away. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Everything makes sense, now. Thanks, Devin.
Wow , this is more relaxing than a really relaxing thing 🙃
Devin,
Seriously-
If you hang up all the albums, spaceships, touring and updates….and just make The Dreampeace App…
You could retire comfortably in a year.
Please consider pursuing something like that. Your work is completely opposed to the ‘solutions’ companies and shills are offering those who suffer. You don’t have to back-up any claims. That’s our job.
Make it happen. You deserve peace in return.
I listen to this while I water color and its so great. Love you DEV!
Alas, I associate this more with "Aching cavern without lucidity" than "Dreampeace".
Aww man, I really like where you're going with these.
Thank you for being you devi . ....love you man x
Thank you, Devin ☕
This is wonderful, now i can relax and sleep to the sound of your music.
Thank you Devin!
Can't wait for the cool vinyls!
So far this is incredible. I listen to a lot of ambient music all day long because of anxiety. I have no doubt this will be a constant on my playlist.
This is amazing. Thank you, Devin!
The color tone fits perfectly to the sound :-) Thank ypu very much for de-monetization, and yes, it works, no shitty ads.
Beautiful, thank you!
Whoa
I always loved the slowly shifting soundscapes of the guitar improv series (particularly no 3) this sounds like you've built on that and it's haunting yet absolutely overwhelming. Centres my thoughts beautifully.
Just listened to this whilst cleaning my lounge and it brought all sorts of ideas flowing forward. Also made me want to write my own ambience so thanks for the lovely sound and inspiration.
I absolutely love Dev and rediscovering his stuff a few years ago has got me into making music again. I now play in Open C almost exclusively lol. His growth through heavy angry music to this is astonishing. Anything you create Dev, I’ll be here to listen. Heavy Devy started out being for heavy brutal music. But now “heavy” could mean the emotional place it’s coming from. Rock on Dev 🤙
thank you for the peacful music I really appreciate what this is meant for. wishing you and your family lots of good. I had my first born baby last week. this music is for him as well, too sleep and to feel its ethereal presence. all the best
You are truly otherworldly. Thank you for your blessings ❤️
Definitely love it ❤️
Greetings from Poland!!
👽
I love this kind of ambient and atmospheric stuff for my workday, great drop and great listen. Thanks Dev
Thanks a million Devin. I will try to have this on in the nights and see if it will be soothing to my tinnitus. Growing older seems to getting it more severe and lately it have been so bad I'm waking up from it. I sincerely hope this track will be harmonizing well with it and letting me sleep through the nights again.
"Too much" Watched my Dad die and my step Mom... and the dog. Have to move now and start over with an uncertain fate. This does kind of work. May need additional applications.
Added all these to Apple Music when they came out. Love having it on when I’m at work to drown out the office hubbub without it being too distracting.
Awesome! Thanks Devy!!!!
I caught the update.....think it was yesterday that mentioned this? Could not have come at a better time, I am hitting the wall in a big way and this is really helping to just help get me back on an even(ish) keel. Life sucks, everything is fucked, but this is helpful and very much appreciated
This is really helping me feel all those emotions I keep bottled up inside and giving me the release I need. Thank you so much Devin.
I'm looking forward to utilizing these tonight for meditation and sleep. Thank you so much, Devin sir, you really are a constant inspiration.
This is something I definitely needed devin thank you ❤ love that you are the artist you are man
Many thanks................😇
Thanks Dev!
These are so great!
big time ambient lover. Impressive work Devin. Makes me feel so spacious.
Legend
This is really lovely, reminds me alot of what I make.. very well done I can see why you do this everyday
Amazing stuff, Man.
What happened? I was pacing all night, insomnia. I put this on, it’s now 330pm!!! Thank you Devin, guess my neurals needed this. Feel rested. Feel good. Feels, Devy.
Art is how we decorate space, music is how we decorate time 💙💙
I dig it.
Sounds lovely! 🎶✨
🤘😃
At first I thought I read "Dawn Shitter" and my mind totally believed it since it's Devin Townsend xD
Kiitos❤
