cosmic drift

53 minutes

Okay, I know that I said I wouldn't post anything until after I got back from vacation, but I REALLY wanted to put out THIS mix! This is more stuff from my listening sessions in the last few weeks to find pieces of music that really stand out to me. I'm really, really proud of this mix, because I was able to (for the most part) have the most consistent mix without too much abrupt changes in mood and key. That's the goal for me, I think.

One artist in this mix that I listen to a bit regularly is Adam Fielding, who is a great electronica musician, and an even greater singer. I have a few of his releases, and I love the moods that he invokes with is unique choices of chord structure and tone. A must hear artist, in my opinion. His opening track is the most ambient thing that he does that I'm aware of, but, man, what a killer opener!

I used Conelrad's music (again), because he consistently creates beautiful soundscapes. I'm really hoping that he will release some more stuff this year. I know that he's involved with music for some video games as well as a soundtrack to an independent film.

Okay, I'm really done this time! I'm not kidding!! I have some amazing stuff lined up, including an all original collaborative mix between myself and Randy Wight that I'm looking forward to in the coming weeks. Think Stars Of The Lid meets Steve Roach with a bit of Robert Rich thrown in. Stay tuned!

Turn on, tune in, sleep...
