The mix is called "Infinitely Small", expertly curated by Htennek Niwhsa.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Piano is the main instrument throughout this lovely set. I don't listen to quite as much piano music as I used to so it was a great to hear so many track featuring the instrument. This would be a great mix to listen to on a Sunday morning with coffee and the paper.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Ken Harrison and Ashwin Sood are the masterminds behind the Htennek Niwhsa project. I'll them tell you about this warm and inviting mix:</span></p><p><i><span style="font-family: georgia;">"We’re so pleased to be asked to do a guest mix for Low Light! We’ve spent the last two years soaking in a bath of simple but pure melodies that an unknown composer named Htennek Niwhsa prepared. We’ve searched unsuccessfully for him but, in our quest, have found him to be a patient teacher. This playlist is a reflection of the lesson Htennek taught us about the value of slowing down and noticing the small and seemingly insignificant. Universes contained in a miniature figurine. Symphonies contained in a well thought out melodic phrase. We’ve compiled this mix from other composers who we think shared Htennek’s vision - some of them friends, some of them heroes."</span></i></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">The new EP "The Smell of a Solitary House" by Htennek Niwhsa just came out last week, March 8th. Here's the link - <a href="https://htennekniwhsa.bandcamp.com/album/the-smell-of-a-solitary-house">https://htennekniwhsa.bandcamp.com/album/the-smell-of-a-solitary-house</a> If you like this, you'll like the new EP. Definitely check it out.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Cheers!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"><span face=""><a href="https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/infinitely-small-by-htennek-niwhsa/" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ s t r e a m ]</a></span> <a href="https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/zxjc5q/Infinitely_Small_by_Htennek_Niwhsa.mp3" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ d o w n l o a d ]</a></span><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/low-light-mixes/id264952209" style="color: red; font-family: arial;" target="_blank">[ a p p l e _ p o d c a s t s ]</a></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>T R A C K L I S T :</b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;">00:00 Patrick Watson - Ode to Vivian (rework) (2022)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">01:35 Joep Beving - For Mark (Hermetism, 2022)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">06:32 Htennek Niwhsa - Fugitive Words (The Smell of a Solitary House 2024)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">08:30 Stephan Moccio - Sea Change (Tales of Solace, 2020)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">11:15 Hiroshi Yoshimura - Sleep (Green 2020)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">17:29 Haruhisa Tanaka - Byakuya (Byakuya 2024)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">19:55 Harold Budd, Brian Eno - The Silver Ball (The Pearl 1983)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">23:12 Htennek Niwhsa - The Smell of a Solitary House (The Smell of a Solitary House 2024)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">25:20 Htennek Niwhsa - Two Motionless Gondoliers (The Smell of a Solitary House 2024)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">27:08 Ennio Morricone - Love Theme (Cinema Paradiso 1988) </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">28:36 Ann Annie - Aviary Reverie - Waltz No. 2 in C (Sweet Coast, 2024)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">31:24 Stephan Moccio - The Wanderer (The Wanderer, 2024)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">34:45 Alexandra Streliski - Élegie (Néo- Romance, 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">38:46 Hollie Kenniff - Eunoia (We All Have Places That We Miss 2024)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">42:06 Max Richter - Dream 1 (before the wind blows it all away) (Pt. 1) (Sleep 2015)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">44:35 P-RAM - Arco (Arco, 2024)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">48:18 NVLP - Elements the Elements (2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">52:00 Arvo Pärt - Spiegel im Spiegel - Version for Cello and Piano (Arvo Pärt : Alina, 1999)</span></li></ul><p></p><div><br /></div> <iframe width="100%" height="120" src="https://player-widget.mixcloud.com/widget/iframe/?hide_cover=1&feed=%2Flowlight%2Finfinitely-small-by-htennek-niwhsa%2F" frameborder="0" ></iframe>Low Light Mixeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01662565941443656175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21018554.post-87431475981028686162024-03-06T07:55:00.001-06:002024-03-06T07:55:28.028-06:00Electronic Music of 1973<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZEjbCQ9nF5tElT9DSpiLQ5hF7gWs-Ho-IZQ8OLJSkVlTbgNLML7WxJgLnvGAH9bHioLmvgDH80xmoA-udEh56jIR7zQxfYECt6vJoewKbEQOH5KaK6zcoRQxuzR-h5XqR72srl8nSCECF8Jh5InVrAjhG6c9nstGvLyv0A27VdN680WVKC26t/s714/1973.png" style="font-family: arial; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="697" data-original-width="714" height="312" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZEjbCQ9nF5tElT9DSpiLQ5hF7gWs-Ho-IZQ8OLJSkVlTbgNLML7WxJgLnvGAH9bHioLmvgDH80xmoA-udEh56jIR7zQxfYECt6vJoewKbEQOH5KaK6zcoRQxuzR-h5XqR72srl8nSCECF8Jh5InVrAjhG6c9nstGvLyv0A27VdN680WVKC26t/s320/1973.png" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">At last we return to the "Electronic Music of (insert year)" series. That's obviously not the actual title of the series but since I don't have a title that will do for this post. I really enjoyed putting together mixes for for 1970, '71, and '72 but then I got distracted and lazy, and I almost forgot about the series. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Now we're back to 1973 to continue our journey through the electronic music of the decade. I went down a Tangerine Dream rabbit hole recently and discovered their album Atem, which I had somehow missed.

Then fellow mixologist Paul Asbury Seaman turned me on to the track "Franky's Floyd" from "An Evening With Friends" by Ron Boots. The heart of the track is a guitar solo homage to David Gilmore & Pink Floyd. It's fantastic! When I heard it I decided to split the guitar mix in two - one would be louder where the occasional guitar solo would be right at home. The other mix would be a bit more spacey, more ethereal.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">So this mix, Cosmic Guitar, is the later style - ambient, atmospheric, cosmic. The timing for this mix is great because two new albums coming in February fit perfectly. They are "Abandoned Spaces" by OdNu + Ümlaut and "Astral Gold" by Dean McPhee. Keep an eye/ear out for them next month.</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://ab-odnumlaut.bandcamp.com/album/abandoned-spaces">https://ab-odnumlaut.bandcamp.com/album/abandoned-spaces</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://deanmcphee.bandcamp.com/">https://deanmcphee.bandcamp.com/</a></span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>LINKS TO THE MUSIC USED IN THIS MIX:</b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://deanmcphee.bandcamp.com/">https://deanmcphee.bandcamp.com/</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/B000002GGS">https://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/B000002GGS</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000E5N634/ref=dm_rwp_pur_lnd_albm_fr">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000E5N634/ref=dm_rwp_pur_lnd_albm_fr</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://whitelabrecs.bandcamp.com/album/the-edge-of-the-sea">https://whitelabrecs.bandcamp.com/album/the-edge-of-the-sea</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NQKWA6S/ref=dm_rwp_pur_lnd_albm_fr">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NQKWA6S/ref=dm_rwp_pur_lnd_albm_fr</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006XY3J6E/ref=dm_rwp_pur_lnd_albm_fr">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006XY3J6E/ref=dm_rwp_pur_lnd_albm_fr</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://kakiking.bandcamp.com/album/modern-yesterdays">https://kakiking.bandcamp.com/album/modern-yesterdays</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://marenostrumlabel.bandcamp.com/album/cold-space-symmetry-2">https://marenostrumlabel.bandcamp.com/album/cold-space-symmetry-2</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005F2EHJI/ref=dm_rwp_pur_lnd_albm_fr">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005F2EHJI/ref=dm_rwp_pur_lnd_albm_fr</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://ab-odnumlaut.bandcamp.com/album/abandoned-spaces">https://ab-odnumlaut.bandcamp.com/album/abandoned-spaces</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://foreignbodysensation.bandcamp.com/album/subterranean-environments">https://foreignbodysensation.bandcamp.com/album/subterranean-environments</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://thenationalpool.bandcamp.com/track/solace">https://thenationalpool.bandcamp.com/track/solace</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://nacioguz.bandcamp.com/album/kirpi-i-kilemi">https://nacioguz.bandcamp.com/album/kirpi-i-kilemi</a></span></li></ul><p></p><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Cheers!</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: red;

I love the "night/walking/hiking" theme of this set.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Here's Paul's thoughts on the mix:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><i>“One of my best memories, in my whole life, was taking an all-night hike by myself in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, arriving at the peak just in time to catch the sunrise from the top of Old Rag, famous for its 360 degree view. This program is part of my Mystical Ambient series and I’ve tried to capture the hushed sense of wonder of both the forest at night and the star-filled sky. I hope the music warms your winter dreams. </i></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><i>As a side note, when I was gathering tracks for this mix, I didn’t set out to make piano the primary instrument, that’s just the way it turned out. And beautifully so, IMHO.”</i></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Thanks for another great contribution, Paul.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><u>Links to each album used in this mix:</u></span></p><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Neil Tatar - After The Rain<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://neiltatar.bandcamp.com/album/after-the-rain">https://neiltatar.bandcamp.com/album/after-the-rain</a><span style="white-space: pre;"> <br /></span></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Beltone - Blind Concert<span style="white-space: pre;"> <br /></span></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://endlessquest.bandcamp.com/album/blind-concert">https://endlessquest.bandcamp.com/album/blind-concert</a><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Bryan Carrigan - Fall Into Winter<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Fall-Into-Winter-Bryan-Carrigan/dp/B014JXV41M">https://www.amazon.com/Fall-Into-Winter-Bryan-Carrigan/dp/B014JXV41M</a><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Allen Pitts - Night Trek<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://weareallghosts.bandcamp.com/album/night-trek-waag-rel156">https://weareallghosts.bandcamp.com/album/night-trek-waag-rel156</a><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Fields of Few - Nocturnal Summer Drift<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://fieldsoffew.bandcamp.com/album/nocturnal-summer-drift">https://fieldsoffew.bandcamp.com/album/nocturnal-summer-drift</a><span style="white-space: pre;"> <br /></span></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Andrew Lahiff - The People Under the Stars<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://andrewlahiff.bandcamp.com/album/the-people-under-the-stars">https://andrewlahiff.bandcamp.com/album/the-people-under-the-stars</a><span style="white-space: pre;"> <br /></span></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Eivind Aarset - Electronique Noire<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://eivindaarset.bandcamp.com/album/electronique-noire">https://eivindaarset.bandcamp.com/album/electronique-noire</a><span style="white-space: pre;"> <br /></span></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Gary Stroutsos - Flute Meditations for Yoga...<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://whiteswanrecords.bandcamp.com/album/flute-meditations-for-yoga-massage">https://whiteswanrecords.bandcamp.com/album/flute-meditations-for-yoga-massage</a><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Jeff Pearce - With Evening Above<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KQ3LF0K/ref=dm_rwp_pur_lnd_albm_fr">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KQ3LF0K/ref=dm_rwp_pur_lnd_albm_fr</a><span style="white-space: pre;"> <br /></span></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Lynn Tredeau - A Quiet Path<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Quiet-Path-Lynn-Tredeau/dp/B08ZD4MSVV">https://www.amazon.com/Quiet-Path-Lynn-Tredeau/dp/B08ZD4MSVV</a><span style="white-space: pre;"> <br /></span></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Omar Akram - Moments Of Beauty<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://omarakram.bandcamp.com/album/moments-of-beauty">https://omarakram.bandcamp.com/album/moments-of-beauty</a><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Patrick O'Hearn - Beautiful World<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/music/player/albums/B0019GSJXY?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1705537101&sr=1-1">https://www.amazon.com/music/player/albums/B0019GSJXY?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1705537101&sr=1-1</a><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Ron Boots - Autumn Moon<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://ronboots.bandcamp.com/album/autumn-moon">https://ronboots.bandcamp.com/album/autumn-moon</a><span style="white-space: pre;"> <br /></span></span><span style="font-family: arial;">City of Dawn & Sherry Finzer - The Journeying Sun<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://heartdancerecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-journeying-sun">https://heartdancerecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-journeying-sun</a><br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;">Sophie Hutchings - Night Sky<br /></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://sophiehutchings.bandcamp.com/album/night-sky">https://sophiehutchings.bandcamp.com/album/night-sky</a></span></div><p><span style="font-family: arial;"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Cheers!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: red;

Just like the snow mix, all the tracks here have cold words in their titles.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I really liked putting two tracks from Harry Towell back-to-back. One new cut from last year called Coldspell and then one from all the way back in 2010 that he released under his Spheruleus moniker called simply, Frozen.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I was literally drinking hot coco with peppermint while mixing these tracks so I suggest you do the same while listening.

So I was happy when I stumbled on some 2023 jazz releases I hadn't heard.

While I love all my old jazz albums from Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Chet Baker, Bill Evans, John Coltrane, etc., it was exciting to seek out new stuff the same way I am constantly on the lookout for new music in the ambient sphere or in the indie rock scene. I see so many people get hung up on the latest reissues of a classic jazz recordings that I wonder if they ever take the time to appreciate any of the excellent new music being released.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Full list of my favorite Jazz Albums of 2023 in alphabetical order:</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;">Ancient Infinity Orchestra - River of Light</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">Anja Lauvdal - Farewell to Faraway Friends (wurlitzer improvisations 2021-23)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">Arooj Aftab, Vijay lyer, Shahzad Ismaily - Love in Exile</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">Ballake Sissoko & Vincent Segal & Emile Parisien & Vincent Peirani - Les Egares</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">Dave Easley - Ballads</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">Daniel Villarreal - Lados B</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">Dhafer Youssef - Street of Minarets</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">EABS & Jaubiln - Search of a Better Tomorrow</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">Eli Keszler - LIVE</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">Fire!

It has been pointed out that calling a list the "Best of the Year" is not only a bit snobby, it's also a little ridiculous because there is so much ambient music released every week that it's impossible to keep up. Plus this list is just my opinion, how can it possibly qualify as the "best"?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">With that in mind I was moving towards labeling these as my favorite albums of the year. In this case I called it "2023 Rewind" simply because I found a cool stock photo for the cover art. Anyway, on to the mix.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">These lists and mixes are tough to compile. It's so easy for even good albums to get lost in the shuffle. The ones that definitely did not get lost are my top 5 albums:</span></p><p></p><ol style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>Crows Labyrinth</b> - Neon Scenes I - Granular Dreams</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>Brendan Eder Ensemble</b> - Therapy</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>Eli Keszler</b> - LIVE [LuckyMe]</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>The Green Kingdom</b> - Ether Hymns [Dronarivm]</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>Rod Modell & Taka Noda</b> - Glow World [13]</span></li></ol><p></p><div><span style="font-family: arial;">I probably listened to that <b>Crows Labyrinth</b> album more than any other ambient album this year. It had the advantage of being used as a sleep album...a lot. The album has a great Blade Runner vibe that is retro yet fresh. I love it. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">The <b>Brendan Eder Ensemble</b> was a new discovery for me. He self described his music as “meditative woodwind arrangements." That would have been enough to get my attention but then toss in a few Aphex Twin covers and I was hooked.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>Eli Keszler</b> has shown up on my lists before but this one is my fav. It is all live percussion, some sparse, some frantic but somehow it all feels ambient. Even when there's a lot going on it feels like it fits more in the ambient genre than jazz. So good.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Michael Cottone has been creating music as <b>The Green Kingdom</b> for a long time. I can always count on him for good quality ambient tracks. "Ether Hymns" is light and beautiful without ever being syrupy or overdone. It sets a perfect tone.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">"Glow World" from <b>Rod Modell & Taka Noda</b> is pretty much what you would expect from Modell. Lots of synth washes with some buried bass lines and rhythms. It may be nothing new but it's done so well that the atmospheres suck you right in. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Here's the full list of my favorite ambient albums of 2023 in alphabetical order:</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Alex Albrecht -

It has this great late night vibe that I immediately latched onto. From there I went back to The Rain Dogs, an artist I had used in an earlier mix called Summoning the Spirits. And then one thing led to another and I ended up with an ambient mix with a fair amount of organic percussion.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">The final mix has a bit of Jon Hassell 4th world feel, some of that late night vibe I mentioned and a dash of Lost Tribe Sound strangeness. I think it all comes together rather well.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Links to all the music used in this mix:</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://eivindaarsetjanbang.bandcamp.com/album/last-two-inches-of-sky">https://eivindaarsetjanbang.bandcamp.com/album/last-two-inches-of-sky</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://the-rain-dogs.bandcamp.com/album/from-abydos-to-dendera">https://the-rain-dogs.bandcamp.com/album/from-abydos-to-dendera</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://anthene.bandcamp.com/album/florescence">https://anthene.bandcamp.com/album/florescence</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Killers-Flower-Soundtrack-Apple-Original/dp/B0CKS4VP12/ref=tmm_acd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=">https://www.amazon.com/Killers-Flower-Soundtrack-Apple-Original/dp/B0CKS4VP12/ref=tmm_acd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://astralindustries.bandcamp.com/album/ai-34-spirit-medicine">https://astralindustries.bandcamp.com/album/ai-34-spirit-medicine</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://jarvus.bandcamp.com/album/farasan">https://jarvus.bandcamp.com/album/farasan</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://msage.bandcamp.com/album/paradise-crick">https://msage.bandcamp.com/album/paradise-crick</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://williamryanfritch.bandcamp.com/album/cohesion">https://williamryanfritch.bandcamp.com/album/cohesion</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://ftmots.bandcamp.com/album/valley-of-the-hummingbirds">https://ftmots.bandcamp.com/album/valley-of-the-hummingbirds</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://the-rain-dogs.bandcamp.com/album/from-abydos-to-dendera">https://the-rain-dogs.bandcamp.com/album/from-abydos-to-dendera</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://arrowounds.bandcamp.com/album/in-the-octopus-pond">https://arrowounds.bandcamp.com/album/in-the-octopus-pond</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://soundcloud.com/fiffi-2">https://soundcloud.com/fiffi-2</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://whitelabrecs.bandcamp.com/album/water-like-mbira">https://whitelabrecs.bandcamp.com/album/water-like-mbira</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://arovane.bandcamp.com/album/seismograf">https://arovane.bandcamp.com/album/seismograf</a></span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Cheers!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"><span face=""><a href="https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/invisible-topologies/" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ s t r e a m ]</a></span> <a href="https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/zncma9/Invisible_Topologies.mp3" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ d o w n l o a d ]</a></span><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/low-light-mixes/id264952209" style="color: red; font-family: arial;" target="_blank">[ a p p l e _ p o d c a s t s ]</a></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>T R A C K L I S T :</b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;">00:00 Eivind Aarset & Jan Bang - City Never Sleeps (Last Two Inches of Sky 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">03:27 The Rain Dogs - From Abydos To Dendera (From Abydos To Dendera 2021)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">10:35 anthéne & simon mccorry - unreflecting pool (florescence 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">14:06 Robbie Robertson - Too Much Dynamite (Killers of the Flower Moon (2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">16:54 Toki Fuko - Spirit Medicine Pt. 1 (Spirit Medicine 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">19:12 Jarvus - Noisetones (Farasan 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">23:02 M.

This mix comes to us from TJ Dumser who releases music under the moniker, <b>Six Missing</b>. He has a new album coming out in December so the timing is perfect.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I'll let TJ tell you about his mix:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><i>"Listening to music always makes me transport to another place. And whenever a piece of music can make me travel to a place that elicits a vivid scene within my mind, I love it even more. Every time I sit and write a piece of music, I am always allowing it to take me somewhere, and then my goal is to try to capture that like a polaroid and develop it as quickly as I can so that the imagery is imprinted firmly within the makeup of the piece. </i></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><i>Misty Morning is a collection of tracks both old and new that allow my mind to travel. Within this mix I've included pieces from not only myself (and an unreleased sneak peak), but from other artists I respect and love. Each track on here hits you with emotion and vibe instantaneously. There is no build-up for these. With each new piece you are gently guided along what I envision being the most perfect and slow morning with a cup of coffee as you watch the mist and fog rise up from the serene mountains behind your home. Or perhaps you are drifting in and out of sleep on an airplane or in a car. But you could also be seated and just merely listening. Regardless, these pieces aim to lift you up and out of your thinking mind and usher you into the beloved "in-between." </i></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><i>While making my latest record "Here For Now," which comes out December 15th via Nettwerk, I was listening to artists that use sounds masterfully - Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Visible Cloaks, and Nils Frahm all are within complete and total control of their voices and I found that incredibly inspiring as I was working to find my own voice. </i></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><i>It is with great humility that I place my own music amongst artists such as Mort Garson and Ólafur Arnalds as well as the ever blissful Eydís Evensen.

He brings us a hour of tunes that straddle the fine line between new age and ambient music, perfect for the waning days of autumn. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Here is what Paul says about this mix:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><i>“Mystical ambient atmospheres meet New Age relaxation. Lots of bells, minimalist piano, acoustic guitar and flute to celebrate the austere, liminal quality of late autumn—my favorite season. All tracks are from albums released this year, except the two ‘guest appearances’ by George Winston and Windham Hill Records founder Will Ackerman. As a side note, I generally avoid familiar tunes on my sleep and meditation mixes, as their specific associations might disrupt the listener’s mental or spiritual flow into a specific direction. But the ‘Ave Maria’ featured here, by Larkenlyre, is one of the most sublime renditions of this classic tune by Franz Schubert I’ve ever heard.”</i></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Here are links to all the music used in this mix:</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://anantakara.art/album/before-completion">https://anantakara.art/album/before-completion</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://projektrecords.bandcamp.com/album/it-flows-between-us">https://projektrecords.bandcamp.com/album/it-flows-between-us</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://thelovelymoon.bandcamp.com/album/drifting-with-the-crescent-moon">https://thelovelymoon.bandcamp.com/album/drifting-with-the-crescent-moon</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://maxjeschek.bandcamp.com/album/the-awakening">https://maxjeschek.bandcamp.com/album/the-awakening</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://heartdancerecords.bandcamp.com/album/earthbeat">https://heartdancerecords.bandcamp.com/album/earthbeat</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://matthewlabarge.bandcamp.com/album/magical-majestical">https://matthewlabarge.bandcamp.com/album/magical-majestical</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://dancingcatrecords.bandcamp.com/album/december">https://dancingcatrecords.bandcamp.com/album/december</a> </span></li><li><a href="https://williamackerman.bandcamp.com/album/pure-will-ackerman"><span style="font-family: arial;">https://williamackerman.bandcamp.com/album/pure-will-ackerman</span></a></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://projektrecords.bandcamp.com/album/amongst-jungles">https://projektrecords.bandcamp.com/album/amongst-jungles</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://tles.bandcamp.com/album/music-for-hard-times">https://tles.bandcamp.com/album/music-for-hard-times</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://lorenzweber.bandcamp.com/album/earth-beats">https://lorenzweber.bandcamp.com/album/earth-beats</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://projektrecords.bandcamp.com/album/paeans">https://projektrecords.bandcamp.com/album/paeans</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://robert-scott-thompson.bandcamp.com/album/dragging-the-sea-with-dreams-2">https://robert-scott-thompson.bandcamp.com/album/dragging-the-sea-with-dreams-2</a> </span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Thanks, Paul, for another excellent collection of tracks!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: red;

I decided to take some of the Latin guitar sounds found in my Guitarissimo mixes, tilt them slight off kilter and give the mix a slightly sinister vibe. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">It's not too dark, and some of it is kinda of fun, just the way Halloween should be. There are a few artists I was familiar with or have played before like David Lynch, SUSS, The Phonometrician, Shakey Graves, Ry Cooder, and Tommy Guerrero. The rest are all new artists I discovered while looking for tracks that fit this theme. It was a lot of fun discovering all of that new music.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Grab some mezcal, turn the lights out and enjoy.

There are many reasons, from too much work to too many concerts and social things to a pennant run in baseball. Also playing a part is me getting a little burned out on ambient music. There is so much of it released every week, every month that it becomes a bit overwhelming and it all starts to blend together after a while. I end up with little motivation to find another theme for yet another ambient mix. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I'm sure I'll snap out of this funk but for now Paul Asbury Seaman comes to the rescue! Just when I needed it, Paul delivers a fantastic berlin-school, train-themed mix. As I've said many times before, I like Paul's mixes because sometimes they go in directions I normally don't go with my own mixes. That's the case again here with these berlin-school tracks. I like sequencer based music but it's not a style I reach for often. And then I hear one of Paul's mixes and I'm like - "Why don't I listen to this music more often?" Whatever the reason, I'm glad Paul is here to remind us about how cool this style can be.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Here's what Paul has to say about this collection:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><i>“No powerful locomotives this time. No high-speed rail or epic cross-country journey. Just a relaxed excursion through autumn foliage. All but three of these tracks are from 2023. Watch for the REAL guitar on ‘In the Fading Starlight.’ Synth Replicants was one of my big/happy discoveries this past year. (This was one of the milder tracks!) Enjoy.”</i><i><br /></i></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Thanks Paul!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Cheers!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"><span face=""><a href="https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/train-no-8-autumn-excursion-by-paul-asbury-seaman/" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ s t r e a m ]</a></span> <a href="https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/6rg7b4/Train_No8_-_Autumn_Excursion6ut9r.mp3" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ d o w n l o a d ]</a></span><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/low-light-mixes/id264952209" style="color: red; font-family: arial;" target="_blank">[ a p p l e _ p o d c a s t s ]</a></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>T R A C K L I S T :</b></span></p><div style="text-align: left;"><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;">00:00 Wil Bolton - Yellow Morning (Södermalm In Autumn 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">09:09 Erik Wøllo - Motion Picture (Cloud of Strings 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">12:50 Thom Brennan - Wavemaker pt. 2 (Wavemaker 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">21:12 Mac Of Bionight - Memory Has No Conscience (COORDINATES volume 11 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">28:12 Nils Frahm - #2 (All Melody 2018)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">36:25 Steve Roach The Weaving Way (The Weaving Way 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">42:18 Node - The Traveller (Node 2 2014)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">47:18 Synth Replicants - In The Fading Starlight (Time of Legends 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">53:30 Alpha Wave Movement - Lattices of Light (Cerulean Skies 2017)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">61:20 Larkenlyre - Sometimes Hope Comes Wrapped In Dark Skies (You and I and Every Sky 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">65:18 end </span></li></ul></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></div> <iframe width="100%" height="120" src="https://player-widget.mixcloud.com/widget/iframe/?hide_cover=1&light=1&feed=%2Flowlight%2Ftrain-no-8-autumn-excursion-by-paul-asbury-seaman%2F" frameborder="0" ></iframe>Low Light Mixeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01662565941443656175noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21018554.post-33628378471257846982023-09-27T10:20:00.000-05:002023-09-27T10:20:40.854-05:00Quiet Indie Songs - Fall '23<p></p><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYjURQlO4vM2gGS-vQk9L-jGkOJTC7vPdzONo77Fuc6zTQcqfyIxObfUnnAlkljPDrkXKUNEIumJJKD5oPJ7_1RKCSgmR4oreuYtLsGXWJdQlIoyXob8PQvg9eN_8uLYektQeBN_2IiHrbWacvOp5ZnZYah4RzElcQL0aFYEhQ7xPjjFWIT_tC/s1072/QUIET%20INDIE%20COVER.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1072" data-original-width="1072" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYjURQlO4vM2gGS-vQk9L-jGkOJTC7vPdzONo77Fuc6zTQcqfyIxObfUnnAlkljPDrkXKUNEIumJJKD5oPJ7_1RKCSgmR4oreuYtLsGXWJdQlIoyXob8PQvg9eN_8uLYektQeBN_2IiHrbWacvOp5ZnZYah4RzElcQL0aFYEhQ7xPjjFWIT_tC/s320/QUIET%20INDIE%20COVER.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I haven't done a quiet indie songs mix since this time last year. This one started when I heard the latest Peter Gabriel track, Love Can Heal, which I adore. And the timing is good as I'll be seeing him in concert on Oct. 2nd. I've heard that in his live show he plays a lot of the new tracks he's been releasing monthly. Several months ago that would have given me pause because I didn't much care for the first few new tracks. But they have been getting better and better with each new song.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">The rest of the mix is just what it says it is - a collection of quiet indie tracks, all of them released in 2023. It includes some old faves like Neil Young, Kevin Morby, Slowdive, & Julie Byrne along with new to me artists like Scott Orr, The Finks, This Is The Kit, & Jörgen Kjellgren. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Cheers!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"><span face=""><a href="https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/quiet-indie-songs-fall-23/" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ s t r e a m ]</a></span> <a href="https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/g3p2zd/Quiet_Indie_Fall_2023.mp3" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ d o w n l o a d ]</a></span><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/low-light-mixes/id264952209" style="color: red; font-family: arial;" target="_blank">[ a p p l e _ p o d c a s t s ]</a></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>T R A C K L I S T :</b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;">00:00 Jörgen Kjellgren - Bluebird Waltz (Bluebird 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">04:09 Scott Orr - Horiszon (Horizon 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">07:45 Peter Gabriel - Love Can Heal(Darkside Mix) (2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">12:57 Silvana Estrada - Milagro y Desastre (2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">16:54 Julie Byrne - Flare (The Greater Wings 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">20:14 This Is The Kit - Careful of Your Keepers (Careful of Your Keepers 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">23:01 The Finks - Marco Polo (Birthdays at Solo Pasta 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">27:06 Arborist - Dewdrop Cherryoak (An Endless Sequence of Dead Zeros 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">32:19 Kevin Morby - Like a Flower (Music From Montana Story 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">35:30 Dean Johnson - Faraway Skies (Nothing For Me, Please 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">39:00 Neil Young - Star of Bethlehem (Chrome Dreams 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">41:35 DeYarmond Edison - Ragstock (Epoch 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">44:04 Allegra Krieger - Lingering (I Keep My Feet on the Fragile Plane 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">47:21 Indigo de Souza - Younger & Dumber (All of This Will End 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">51:50 JFDR - The Orchid (Museum 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">56:00 Slowdive - prayer remembered (everything is alive 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">60:30 end</span></li></ul><p></p><div><br /></div> <iframe width="100%" height="120" src="https://player-widget.mixcloud.com/widget/iframe/?hide_cover=1&light=1&feed=%2Flowlight%2Fquiet-indie-songs-fall-23%2F" frameborder="0" ></iframe>Low Light Mixeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01662565941443656175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21018554.post-62039979517803010032023-09-06T07:29:00.000-05:002023-09-06T07:29:41.335-05:00For the Love of Iceland<p></p><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTqQv5aPc4fByKpEaC7cAljItrzzn6D3qZVz4pdLqlF9aKFtm_qEeK8CD2HpUaWlBcq30DqeNuDo2-xHrZHXWnVX-RvOSnVwKbHmkmmm8ftg5pZX2EfSBC35q_QRLPHfMVdcdEF-rQ9kHhiskUiq7gyyeztxcgBHdjpdU5WdBEr5nJhINfUVgS/s3024/iceland%20cover%202.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTqQv5aPc4fByKpEaC7cAljItrzzn6D3qZVz4pdLqlF9aKFtm_qEeK8CD2HpUaWlBcq30DqeNuDo2-xHrZHXWnVX-RvOSnVwKbHmkmmm8ftg5pZX2EfSBC35q_QRLPHfMVdcdEF-rQ9kHhiskUiq7gyyeztxcgBHdjpdU5WdBEr5nJhINfUVgS/s320/iceland%20cover%202.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I just got back from a week in Iceland so naturally I had to make a mix with music from Icelandic artists.

So this guest mix comes a perfect time. It's also a perfect mix for sitting on the deck and doing nothing.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">This mix comes to us from Ali Murray who records as The Lonely Bell. "Kingdoms of the Deep" by The Lonely Bell was one of my favorite ambient albums of 2022. <a href="https://thelonelybell.bandcamp.com/album/kingdoms-of-the-deep">https://thelonelybell.bandcamp.com/album/kingdoms-of-the-deep</a></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Here's what Ali says:</span></p><p><i><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>"My name is Ali Murray. I’m a songwriter and musician from the Isle of Lewis, which is a small remote island in the north of Scotland. I write and release dark introspective ambient music under the name The Lonely Bell.</b></span></i></p><p><i><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>As the title suggests, this is an ambient guest mix to mark the end of the summer season, and the coming of autumn. It’s a dreamy and eclectic selection of dark ambience, haunting drones, fuzzy electronica, cinematic modern classical, immersive sound art and ethereal soundscapes - bookended by the two songs that comprise my brand new EP - ‘The Outer Banks’. ‘The Outer Banks’ is out now on the label Frosti, and is available both digitally and on limited edition cassette tape.</b></span></i></p><p><i><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>You can check it out at the following link :</b></span></i></p><p><a href="https://frostilabel.bandcamp.com/album/the-outer-banks"><i><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>https://frostilabel.bandcamp.com/album/the-outer-banks</b></span></i></a></p><p><i><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>And you can find the rest of my discography at :</b></span></i></p><p><a href="http://www.thelonelybell.bandcamp.com"><i><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>www.thelonelybell.bandcamp.com</b></span></i></a></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">As I've said many times before, one of the reasons I like guest mixes is they go in a direction that I usually don't take myself and that is the case here. I am very hit and miss with darker ambient tracks and the same goes for drone ambient. But I really like the way The Lonely Bell treats those styles so it's no surprise that I enjoy what Ali did with this mix. I know you'll like it too.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Cheers!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"><span face=""><a href="https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/summers-end-by-the-lonely-bell/" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ s t r e a m ]</a></span> <a href="https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/c5vhed/Summer_s_End_by_The_Lonely_Bell7tmke.mp3" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ d o w n l o a d ]</a></span><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/low-light-mixes/id264952209" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ a p p l e _ p o d c a s t s ]</a></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>T R A C K L I S T :</b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;">0:00 The Lonely Bell – The Outer Banks</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">8:00 Claire Deak – A Million Cloaked Ghosts</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">10:58 Barley & Blush To The Snow – The Eternal Note of Sadness In (excerpt)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">14:42 Broken Chip – Yellow</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">19:06 Karen Vogt – Amidst The Sea Fog</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">21:48 Glacis & Adrian Lane – A Flower In The Mind</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">26:42 CLAIR – Queen Bee Prelude</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">31:40 Patrick Corcoran – GEN 2</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">34:20 Mollbury Medical Research Centre – Temporary Amnesia</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">37:10 Leonard Donat – Fog Horn Deer Trap</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">43:40 The Lonely Bell – Fires of Dawn</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">52:46 end</span></li></ul><div><br /></div><p></p> <iframe width="100%" height="120" src="https://www.mixcloud.com/widget/iframe/?hide_cover=1&feed=%2Flowlight%2Fsummers-end-by-the-lonely-bell%2F" frameborder="0" ></iframe>Low Light Mixeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01662565941443656175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21018554.post-35728213666291101652023-08-09T13:04:00.000-05:002023-08-09T13:04:16.202-05:00Summoning The Spirits<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOw3h47MojVdvfHa09MhRigzoDKB3xK9aIQokiGgGuWrrAbaxUrct0AUzMjSgs9XY4cQk8w1fWnBknWlSRbMedLKUDnmWyK3UD0adAsl3zLwbqgGQafWaxKC6MzZyw-ZKhxLZ31z1HQzHg6f2xK6x1W9jVvqZ23aHRdYPVL_tAK5e82q0c4WS9/s717/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="font-family: arial; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="717" data-original-width="717" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOw3h47MojVdvfHa09MhRigzoDKB3xK9aIQokiGgGuWrrAbaxUrct0AUzMjSgs9XY4cQk8w1fWnBknWlSRbMedLKUDnmWyK3UD0adAsl3zLwbqgGQafWaxKC6MzZyw-ZKhxLZ31z1HQzHg6f2xK6x1W9jVvqZ23aHRdYPVL_tAK5e82q0c4WS9/s320/2.jpg" width="320" /></a></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">One of my favorite ambient albums from the first half of 2023 is "Intrapersonal Experience" by Saphileaum. It's a great combination of atmospherics and percussion, reminiscent of 90s Steve Roach tribal ambient. After hearing this album I needed to do a drum/percussion-based mix and "Summoning The Spirits" is the result.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Another recent discovery makes its way into this mix - The Rain Dogs. So far I only have one of their albums but I plan on buying many more. I have to pace myself though. Their album, From Abydos To Dendera, has shades of Jon Hassell and other 4th world styles that I love. The tracks fit perfectly in this mix.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I hope you enjoy the atmospheres and the rhythms.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Cheers!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"></span></p><p><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"><span face=""><a href="https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/summoning-the-spirits/" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ s t r e a m ]</a></span> <a href="https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/36a5wr/Summoning_The_Spirits.mp3" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ d o w n l o a d ]</a></span><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/low-light-mixes/id264952209" style="color: red; font-family: arial;" target="_blank">[ a p p l e _ p o d c a s t s ]</a></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">T R A C K L I S T :</span></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;">00:00 The Rain Dogs - Market Day (From Abydos To Dendera 2021)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">05:33 Saphileaum - Dear (Intrapersonal Experience 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">09:45 The Chi Factory - Part One (Travel In Pece 2020)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">14:40 Benjy Wertheimer & John de Kadt - Underwater (One River 2012)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">21:08 Byron Metcalf - As Clouds Dance (Inner Rhythm Meditations 2016)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">29:50 Chi - Before The Mountain (The Original Recordings 2016)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">36:50 The Rain Dogs - Dawn Over Qurna (From Abydos To Dendera 2021)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">40:54 Eli Keszler - Barcelona Part VI (LIVE 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">44:40 D.K. - Summoning the Spirits (The Goddess Is Dancing 2019)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">50:00 Saphileaum - Remote (Intrapersonal Experience 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">54:40 The Chi Factory - Part Two (The Kallikatsou Recordings 2017)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">57:43 Night Sky Pulse - Luminescence (These Possible Lives 2021)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">61:03 end</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"> <br /></span></li></ul> <iframe width="100%" height="120" src="https://www.mixcloud.com/widget/iframe/?hide_cover=1&light=1&feed=%2Flowlight%2Fsummoning-the-spirits%2F" frameborder="0" ></iframe>Low Light Mixeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01662565941443656175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21018554.post-72471253922368345172023-07-26T07:11:00.000-05:002023-07-26T07:11:08.799-05:00Electronic Music 1972<p></p><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg8lIg52vsfGZIC6gu67CVMxAeSqzdsH86wG-vaI1_9tCmnNMDNNd28NP9IK1Gww9keBUWDu04m-3zJ-fuXfvPShNwFmnJ60z3LbyIyq0wRKJSOzJ5xuNTw3iGMDabG5FYNtNIGCtmqWbuFQXYFBP18WkX0NwpYoeA6_0atR-ClP44tl3MyNLN/s720/1972%203.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><img border="0" data-original-height="719" data-original-width="720" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg8lIg52vsfGZIC6gu67CVMxAeSqzdsH86wG-vaI1_9tCmnNMDNNd28NP9IK1Gww9keBUWDu04m-3zJ-fuXfvPShNwFmnJ60z3LbyIyq0wRKJSOzJ5xuNTw3iGMDabG5FYNtNIGCtmqWbuFQXYFBP18WkX0NwpYoeA6_0atR-ClP44tl3MyNLN/s320/1972%203.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">The trip through the electronic music of the 70s continues with a stop in 1972. As with '70 & '71 this is a mix with some tracks that are very electronic, like the Wendy Carlos tunes, and others that are more electronic adjacent, like the Cluster or Pick Floyd tracks. But I think it gives a good sense of where things stood at the time.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I purposely stayed away from cheesy electronic versions of classical music like "The Electronic Spirit Of Erik Satie" or "The Unusual Classical Synthesizer." I'm just not a fan of that type of electronic music. I understand it's place in bringing synths to mass attention, I just don't like those recordings.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Enjoy 1972, I have a feeling 1973 will sound fairly similar.

As per usual, it's a great collection of familiar and unfamiliar artists, to me at least. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Here's what Paul says about this latest trip down the tracks:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">“On this one—my seventh train-themed mix for LLM—I’m going for the feeling of exhilaration and weary melancholy of travel, as much as the clickety-clack rhythm associated with trains. Plus a twinge of the mystical that can be experienced while crossing between worlds. Once again, drawing from 40 years of music… a couple of new artists, some perennial favorites (of mine), and some classics of the genre.”</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Thanks, Paul, for delivering once again.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Cheers!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"><span face=""><a href="https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/last-train-home-by-paul-asbury-seaman/" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ s t r e a m ]</a></span> <a href="https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/7uippn/Last_Train_Home_by_Paul_Asbury_Seaman.mp3" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ d o w n l o a d ]</a></span><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/low-light-mixes/id264952209" style="color: red; font-family: arial;" target="_blank">[ a p p l e _ p o d c a s t s ]</a></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>T R A C K L I S T :</b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;">00:00 Christian Fiesel - A Train And No Final Destination (The New Voyages Of Little Nemo 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">03:29 Frolin - Afterthought (Morrowtide 2022)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">07:26 Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene 7 (Oxygene 7-13 1997)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">15:05 Johan Tronestam - Reveals the Invisible (Cosmic Drama II 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">22:14 Fritz Mayr - Breath of the Wind (Mythical Worlds 2022)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">28:40 Cristian Richet - Sansucy (Life Is But A Dream 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">35:05 Cosmic Ground - Phasing 76 (Entropy 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">42:40 The Soviet Space Dog Project - Star City (Star City 2021)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">51:45 Vangelis - Life Of Antarctica (Antartica 1983)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">57:19 LAD - Starburst (Andromeda 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">62:42 Robert Rich - Loom Of Origins (Travelers' Cloth 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">69:30 Patrick O'Hearn - Traveler's Rest (So Flows the Current 2000)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">75:33 end</span></li></ul><p></p><div><br /></div> <iframe frameborder="0" height="120" src="https://www.mixcloud.com/widget/iframe/?hide_cover=1&feed=%2Flowlight%2Flast-train-home-by-paul-asbury-seaman%2F" width="100%"></iframe>Low Light Mixeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01662565941443656175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21018554.post-29695212754971280092023-07-06T10:04:00.001-05:002023-07-06T10:04:19.840-05:00Favorite Ambient Albums of 2023, so far<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgh0XNmlxthZUzh700wmBQY_lvrHPyR_0-W6jx3H-b3PVW_pFTdMYWhQxo8LoeTkai2ZaaO3ZlZKvjhhfUx6xV7JZzaxt6kjNePTQlvMvkC6JzGnXriBYA4dVPjQzOoTLVSkLIvwC64ki54KlpSUPxLREzWEe1uzNWhvHRO-PsYB2dsRKgN4lSJ/s719/fav%202023%20so%20far.jpg" style="font-family: arial; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span><img border="0" data-original-height="719" data-original-width="719" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgh0XNmlxthZUzh700wmBQY_lvrHPyR_0-W6jx3H-b3PVW_pFTdMYWhQxo8LoeTkai2ZaaO3ZlZKvjhhfUx6xV7JZzaxt6kjNePTQlvMvkC6JzGnXriBYA4dVPjQzOoTLVSkLIvwC64ki54KlpSUPxLREzWEe1uzNWhvHRO-PsYB2dsRKgN4lSJ/s320/fav%202023%20so%20far.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span><p></p><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">I guess the title of this mix is as straightforward as it gets.

a set of long ambient pieces, perfect for sleeping. There's not much else to say other than the tracks are all fairly new with most of them from 2023.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">I was happy to use a longer version of the Crows Labyrinth track in this mix. I used it in my Blade Runner mix earlier in the year but it was the short version. I have been listening to the long version a lot this year and using it as a sleep soundtrack quite a bit as well. So I knew I had to use more of the 39 minute track in this mix. That album will make my best of the year list for sure.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Speaking of best of the year lists - head over to Mixcloud Posts to see my favorite albums of 2023, so far - </span><a href="https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/posts/best-of-2023-so-far/" style="font-family: arial;">MIXCLOUD Best of 2023(so far)</a></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Links to all the music used in this mix:</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="https://loscil.bandcamp.com/album/alta"><span style="font-family: arial;">https://loscil.bandcamp.com/album/alta</span></a></li><li><a href="https://altusmusic.bandcamp.com/album/willoweald"><span style="font-family: arial;">https://altusmusic.bandcamp.com/album/willoweald</span></a></li><li><a href="https://crowslabyrinth.bandcamp.com/album/neon-scenes-i-granular-dreams"><span style="font-family: arial;">https://crowslabyrinth.bandcamp.com/album/neon-scenes-i-granular-dreams</span></a></li><li><a href="https://milieumusic.bandcamp.com/album/beside-a-green-window"><span style="font-family: arial;">https://milieumusic.bandcamp.com/album/beside-a-green-window</span></a></li><li><a href="https://slaapwel.bandcamp.com/album/particles"><span style="font-family: arial;">https://slaapwel.bandcamp.com/album/particles</span></a></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://perceptualtapes.bandcamp.com/album/fleeting-visions-into-sleep">https://perceptualtapes.bandcamp.com/album/fleeting-visions-into-sleep</a> - active on 7/14/23</span></li><li><a href="https://cryochamber.bandcamp.com/album/lost-loops-collection"><span style="font-family: arial;">https://cryochamber.bandcamp.com/album/lost-loops-collection</span></a></li><li><a href="https://dataobscura.bandcamp.com/album/delicate-terrain"><span style="font-family: arial;">https://dataobscura.bandcamp.com/album/delicate-terrain</span></a></li><li><a href="https://cv313.bandcamp.com/album/plays-sequential-space"><span style="font-family: arial;">https://cv313.bandcamp.com/album/plays-sequential-space</span></a></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">Cheers!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"><span face=""><a href="https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/longform-sleepy-time/" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ s t r e a m ]</a></span> <a href="https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/jgszfa/longform_sleepy_time.mp3" style="color: red;" target="_blank">[ d o w n l o a d ]</a></span><span style="color: red; font-family: arial;"> </span><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/low-light-mixes/id264952209" style="color: red; font-family: arial;" target="_blank">[ a p p l e _ p o d c a s t s ]</a></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>T R A C K L I S T :</b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: arial;">00:00 Loscil - Alta (Alta 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">10:20 Loneward - Light Blossom (Willoweald 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">18:00 Crows Labyrinth - Neon Scenes I (Neon Scenes I: Granular Dreams 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">27:45 Milieu - Beside a Green Window (Beside a Green Window 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">37:07 Katharina Schmidt - Particles (Particles 2022)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">46:44 Spectrical - Distant Rain (Fleeting visions into sleep 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">55:10 Mount Shrine - Foghorn (Lost Loops Collection 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">1:12:25 Robert Davies - Diffused Meadow (Delicate Terrain 2022)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">1:26:30 cv313 - Star Alignments (Plays Sequential Space 2023)</span></li><li><span style="font-family: arial;">2:00:00 end</span></li></ul><p></p><div><br /></div> <iframe width="100%" height="120" src="https://www.mixcloud.com/widget/iframe/?hide_cover=1&feed=%2Flowlight%2Flongform-sleepy-time%2F" frameborder="0" ></iframe>Low Light Mixeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01662565941443656175noreply@blogger.com1
