The Eastside in Los Angeles is so much cooler in temperature than it is in Hollywood. I think I've been missing the feeling of Autumn mainly because I've been living in a more condensed hotter area. I've been known to be perusing the streets late at night in my new home in Los Feliz just so I can feel those cold fall nights again, and remember the music that I loved listening to back in the day. I tried to come up with a more nostalgic mix, honing more of the American and London based ambient 90's sounds, but somehow got into more contemporary Berlin and French minimalist drone vibe. Its very smooth, crisp, and resonates a mid to late Autumn sound, with an underlying warmth of sexual tension and pining nostalgia.
I just test drove this tracklist around town. The marine layer has laid a bed sheet over the city at night, and the skyscrapers are encased in this thick web of fog. I got a little lost while driving with this mix, which was perfect (because I had no real particular destination whatsoever). I hope you'll enjoy this mix and get lovingly lost to the droned out bliss sounds of this ambient set.
Stay Beautiful Music Lovers,
