Always progressing from one rendezvous to the next just by me getting older physically and spiritually, I think my last one was pretty epic, and on this one I’ve had even more time to make it, and I didn’t feel as much in a rush. 9 Days has a floating-cloud slide synth with Julia bending … Continue reading Nils Hoffmann feat. Julia Church – 9 Days

Låpsley’s lyrics spark the tune to life, as her voice surrounds the desire of a woman who’s relationship has ended. Like I Used To is beyond laid back, cooler than cool, even relaxed and resounding, drawing me in with each listen until I’m totally immersed. I sit here with my mouth open, the perfect meld … Continue reading Steve Weston feat. Låpsley – Like I Used To
It would be easy to suggest that this rendezvous was a product of another time, dripping with morning dew, romantic meditations on stillness, tugging at my shirtsleeves while indulging me with a pleasant bodily heaviness, bringing a sly sleepy nod to my eyes as I strain to pay attention. Slowly pushes the concept of music … Continue reading Yotto – Slowly
Marsh designed Wasn’t Enough to create a floating dynamic musical soundscape, that effectively enhances that inner journey, all while setting the pace for the floor that was shifting under one’s feet, along with the ceiling that was floating away, leaving listeners lost in the matrix-ed air they were breathing! To say the this tune simply … Continue reading Marsh – Wasn’t Enough
Daylight is a true sonic marvel – rich, varied, beautiful, filled with lush and simple melodies. You will be inclined to venture into those magical harmonies and bigger than life presentations that make up this tune, where you feel forever out of reach, etherial in the fact they are unable to be memorably captured. Oddly enough, … Continue reading Luttrell – Daylight
What You Are is laden with dreamy delightful synths along with washed out blissed vocals, all woven together through a series of evenhanded textures designed to deliver a kaleidoscope of sounds, some expected, some not, though all going down like a syrupy medication designed to lay waste your soul.

The story behind this ethereally blissful tune is that of the space capsule Nightwhisper drifting off its planned orbit, ebbing into uncharted regions of the cosmos, beaming back these haunting yet beautifully lost transmissions, letting anyone interested, anyone paying attention, know that they are still out there and alive, and though lost, seeming to be … Continue reading Jody Wisternoff & James Grant – Nightwhisper
Hold On is catchy and uplifting, albeit with a darker side. There are those, and truth be told, who think that the bass and synths should be a background experience within a track, that these instruments should not define a tune, when the actual truth is, they always do. When I first heard this track, … Continue reading Lane 8 feat. Fractures – Hold On (Ben Böhmer Remix)
Enamour is going deep with this one, fulfilling his role as the underdog of the year, set to surprise the world.

Delve deep into the aural magic with this tune’s microscopically detailed, crystalline clear ambient noises and titillating sound waves that soothingly embrace, clandestinely permeate, drift and meander above along with balmy xylophone vistas. Audiophile quality sound is another bonus here, a headphone listening is a true revelation! The title couldn’t have been chosen any better for this one. I Can’t Be … Continue reading Thomas Schwartz & Fausto Fanizza feat. Susie Ledge – I Can’t Be Found
