Forest Management is Chicago's John Daniel, a talented and prolific producer of experimental ambient works and founder of the Sequel and Reserve Matinee labels. Daniel's music draws from a profound sense of nostalgia felt even at its sparsest moments, and is represented by an impressive roster of independent labels including Past Inside The Present, VAAGNER, Constellation Tatsu, and many more.

"Direct and cathartic" — the words Daniel chose to describe his contribution to our series, a uniquely ethereal and esoteric selection, one which reveals an inward exploration of a peculiar and uncertain time.
