Last weekend I played the closing set at a new ambient/electronica event in Leeds. It was a cool little event on a Sunday evening. An almost totally dark room with only candle light and people sitting and lying down on the floor, chatting and listening to the music.
I thought the set came out very nicely and since I haven't put out anything ambient since I finished doing the Absorb radio show, here it is:
01. Phaeleh - Orbits [Undertow]
02. I Awake - Nevertized [Ultimae]
03. Atlas - Compass Error (Tarrantella Vs Redanka Dubbed Version) [Plastica RED]
04. Miika Kuisma - Abyss [Subtraxx]
05. Robert Babicz - Curious Heart [Traum Schallplatten]
06. The War On Drugs - The Haunting Idle [Secretly Canadian]
07. Speedy J - Lanzarote [Warp]
08. Arne Weinberg - Syial (Stephen Brown Remix) [aDepth Audio]
09. Biosphere - The Things I Tell You [Touch]
10. Acronym - Mu 5 [Northern Electronics]
11. DjRUM - Induction [2nd Drop]
12. ASC & Synkro - Borderline [Auxiliary]
13. Dusky - Skin Deep (Global Communication Dub) [17 Steps]
14. The Future Sound Of London - The Wheel Of Life [FSOLdigital] |

| This paired nicely with a badly needed Sunday Morning Yoga session. Gave me time to heal and repair my body and mind with some music that made me feel like I was floating aimlessly in outer space. My favorite tune was easily ASC & Synkro - Borderline. Very well put together, I can imagine this went over nicely in a dark and chilled out room. Well done. |

This was absolutely perfect for my horrible, terrible, no-good pounding hangover this Sunday. Definitely going to get more listens to me - I used to love your Absorb stuff and have been disappointed with your lack of similar stuff since you closed the book on that chapter (although, I mean, not THAT disappointed, since we got all the Rapid Transit and other progressive stuff from you :p).
I don't think I completely understand the concept of the event you played it at, but I hope there was a good turn-out - not for your sake, but solely for my own selfish reasons, so that I'll get to listen to more sets like this from you :p
I hadn't actually looked at the TL before listening, so I was nicely surprised by Compass Error, but I really couldn't say I had a highlight other than that, as the whole thing was just an excellent little journey. Nice one :) |

What, not even Induction!? I'm sure I remember us discussing that tune as a masterpiece when it came out!
I suppose the concept of the event was simply a chill-out room as the whole event. So you go in, get a drink, sit down and chat in an atmospherically-lit room, but you never get up and go back into the main room. Which works a whole lot better as an ambient event than putting an act on a stage like a normal gig.
The only weird part was that it was so dark I couldn't see the audience at all, so I had nothing to feed back from while mixing. I ended up playing pretty much the exact set I'd been practising at home, and only improvised the last tune, whereas normally I'll adapt my set on the night depending on how people are reacting. |

Well, I meant more than everything just worked really well together. Obviously that track is phenomenal! Would love to grab a vinyl copy someday; should probably do it before prices get too ridiculous, like most of his stuff.
He's playing at Fabric tonight, but unfortunately I have prior plans with some people. Mightily tempted to 'feel ill' and leave the night early to swing by that... Probably going to be better than when I was the only person to see him at MoS a few years back, hah.
Are there plans to do another night like that in the future? |

Downloaded this when you first posted it, but I didn't get around to listening to it until this afternoon (popped up in my queue without knowing it was yours).
Just wanted to add that I enjoyed it very much. I'm stressed about finishing this project and it mellowed me out a bit. Super chill and smooth mix.
Gracias :) |
