In recent years, I've found myself becoming more interested in experimental, abstract music - I've even made some of it myself. I'm particularly interested in the 'barely there' - sound recordings that could be ambient, minimal or field recordings, and unfold in their own time and space, sometimes their own universe.
There's lots of this music about, and I've decided to make a monthly (or thereabouts) mix tape of things that particularly appeal to me. No overarching themes or gimmicks, just an hour of sound for listening, sleeping, knitting, looking mindlessly out of the window, whatever works.
Not always quiet, not particularly relaxing, but immersive and potentially transportative. Headphones or equivalent recommended, but do what you like, they're your ears.
All tracks are relatively recent and are available to buy on Bandcamp.
