We are thrilled to have awakened souls, the stunning collaborative project from James and Cynthia Bernard, up next on our mix series. 

Some words from awakened souls "Our upcoming record, Night Songs (coming to Past Inside on March 18th) is an ode to sleep and rest. We decided to center this mix around songs which have helped calm our minds after dark. Some songs are recent discoveries, while others have been bringing us comfort for many years. We hope this mix brings you quietude and perhaps even a chance to close your eyes and drift away."

So as always, sit back, relax and take a load off. Enjoy.

Reflexions Podcast 28 - Taennya

Yes, folks, I am still rejoicing in last year. What can I say – I love to listen to great music, especially when it’s picked by someone else. And not just anyone – a trusted source! Ryan Griffin and I go back more than a decade now. Secretly, I’m even jealous of his capacity to operate one of the best labels on the scene today. At times, I toyed with the idea of starting a label too – but then, when would I have the time to write these words and share this music? And so, I leave it to the rest. For this annual entry in the Reflections series, we spend three hours (!) in the company of 42+ tracks selected by your reliable guide of A Strangely Isolated Place, where you will surely find new gems and inspirations. I’ll drop a short quote here, but you should check out a detailed write-up on this mix on ASIP’s dedicated page.

Reflection on 2023

Tracklisting

A Strangely Isolated Place - Reflection on 2023

Since 2014, UK-based label, https://soundcloud.com/astralindustries have been responsible for some of the most enlightening and entertaining releases of recent years. Their output has helped otherwise forgotten or out of print music see the light of day, provided new takes on previous classics, whilst also pushing forward new music by some of the most well-respected artists within the ambient genre. 

Debuting with a release by dub-techno legend DeepChord in 2014, Astral Industries went on to release Wolfgang Voigt's live project, Rückverzauberung Live In London in 2015.  In 2016 they followed with a 1985 recording from disbanded dutch collective Chi - a timeless and undoubtedly classic record, whilst in the same year pitching Wolfgang and Deepchord together for the very first time, with reinterpretations of Peter Michael Hamel's classic, Colors of Time. By then, and combined with the continually brilliant artwork of Theo Ellsworth, we knew that Astral Industries was a label with staying-power, and a growing catalog of releases worth collecting - be it just for the framed artwork, or moreover, the complete music package. 

In 2017, we've seen an LP by Heavenly Music Corporation, aka Kim Cascone (likely encouraged by the recent re-release of his own label Silent Records), a third LP by The Chi Factory, and then just last month a beautiful album by Waveform Transmission (Rod Modell of DeepChord and Chris Troy), with a sublime follow-up album, a massive 20 years after their first. 

The man behind the Astral Industries machine, Ario is a proven expert at plucking obscure gems from the past, or ensuring that good music gets the platform and artistic presentation it deserves. In just a few years, Ario has curated a highly respected and anticipated label roster that demands attention, and has yet to disappoint. The music is always gentle, deep and often extremely vivid, be it deeply hypnotic ambient, or gentle murmurs of dub-techno. 

With curatorial talents like this, we're overjoyed to host an exclusive 2hr+ mix of Ario digging into his record collection, and interlocking a few select exclusive Astral Industries bits in-between. It's one hell-of-a hypnotic journey and just like the Astral Industries releases, deserved of your full undivided, escapist attention.

Mix introduction by Scott Morgan/Loscil:

"Whether conscious or not, water has long been an influential factor in my work.  There is something intangible, powerful, emotional, alluring and frightening about water.  With this mix, I thought I would explore if and how water has influenced other artists who I respect and admire.  A quick peruse of my music collection lead to the discovery of quite a few pieces that are somehow connected to water.  Be it rivers, streams, oceans or rainfall, it seems water is often an inspirational subject for many composers and this doesn't surprise me.  

I remember a conversation I had in university with a friend who was studying oceanography and fluid dynamics.  I had recently learned about the use of Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT's) in audio analysis.  My layman understanding of this was that FFT's allow for efficient analysis and resynthesis of audio data so that computers can better handle the vast amounts of sample data typically needed to represent and process digital audio.  Long story short, my friend (who had a much better understanding of the application of FFT's than I) revealed to me that they use the same process and similar math for analyzing tidal data.  What struck me about this was that if you look closely at things like sound waves or tidal patterns, etc., there are universal similarities - that almost everything can be boiled down to vibrations, oscillations, frequencies, etc.  Of course, there is much more to our relationship with water than just that.  We depend on it for life as does all life on this planet.  We also play in it, float on it and sometimes it destroys our homes or we drown in it.  Growing up on the west coast, many of my memories both fond and otherwise, somehow involve water, whether it be in the foreground or simply in the background.  It seems I'm not alone".

As with all of my ‘Reflection’ year-end mixes, I start with a long list of albums I have enjoyed over the year. Often hundreds. Through the process of putting a mix together that flows well, the songs are whittled down and selected from each album. This means many of my favorite tracks are often omitted in the process (even favorite tracks from a favorite album). But as I say every year, this isn’t a definitive ‘best-of’ list, but an organic selection of some of my favorite music from the year in a listenable format - it’s the most enjoyable way for me to boil down music I’ve loved from the year using these self-imposed restrictions. Use the mix to jump off and explore more from each artist and album.
