Quiet Night, Quiet Stars


Here's another stargazing mix. Just like "Tea Time At Eno's House", this was created for stargazing in northern Wisconsin.


Because I have so much music that would be considered "space" music, I decided to narrow the search by using songs that had appropriate terms in the titles. So words like star, sky, moon & night come up a lot. Just to keep things interesting I threw in a few vocal tunes as well. I hope you all enjoy it.

hi dave,
thanks a lot for your post on my blog. You mix is very nice.
If you don't know Gregor Samsa, try to imagine a crosslinking between Sigur ros, Low and L'Altra... it could give you an idea, but they have a website where you can download mp3s

Concerning Hulk, i think this is one you should definitvely check, it reminds me a bit of Colleen sometimes...a kind of textural electronica with a lot of cello, really nice (http://www.osaka.ie)

Ursula is a spanish band, that could be described as Migala meets Arab strap meets Hood (on Lejos discos label).

Here a few new ideas for your next mixes : treated guitars, shiny spring come back.

hello dave,
i'm glad you enjoyed the kazumasa hashimoto album. But those i like the most from him are Epitaph and Yupi (his 2 previous ones), eventhough Gllia remains a very good piece of work (i think it sounds a little bit easy-listening from time to time).

Yeh, we can discuss in english, but be aware i don't speak it fluently. I suppose my english level is sufficent to understand you and to be understood.
But my blog is and will always be written in french, i hope it's ok for you. Anyway thanks for reading my blog, i'm glad :o)

cheers

Till the final flicker of life's ember I who was lost and lonely
Believing life was a only a bitter tragic joke
Have found with you the meaning of existence oh, my love
