Everyday it’s hard in the city
Don’t you see the strung out broads
Looking for shine and poise
Despite the slimmest odds
But you gotta make a noise
Cause life is given but living is a choice

So you work all night
Riding the bus mid-town
The lights are always green 
Green, and you’re ready to sell out
In the darkness of your life
(not sure)
If morning will come around

So you’re anxious (anxious)
Waiting around for time
So you’re anxious (anxious)
Trying not to miss your prime
(trying trying trying not to miss your-)

Pride is a luxury you know (you know, you know)
If circumstances were less sweet
And the adults never provided
Your pain has no name
And your thoughts are divided 

So you’re anxious (anxious)
love never came your way
So you’re anxious (anxious)
If it did it never stayed

And baby I love you
But I want much more much more much more much more
Much more than house cars suburban life and stuff
I want to reach the sky and beyond
And I’m afraid if a lifetime is not enough

So I’m anxious
You say it makes me hard to love
So I’m anxious
Cause nothing is ever enough
No nothing is ever enough 
Mm mm mm nothing is ever-
Cause nothing, nothing is ever
enough

Anxious

Mr Sandman calls on us once again. This week we wind down do the sounds of Stay Positive as we delve deep into his dreams.

"I dreamt this dream whilst passed out on the floor of a house party somewhere in south-east London. A few hours from then my Dad was due to pick me up and drive me up to Manchester - where I'd live for at least the next 4 years whilst I attended the Royal Northern College of Music. It was my only ever lucid dream experience.

I was stood on a platform in a huge train station. It had vaulted brick archways. The ceiling was so high it made me nauseous to look at it. The platforms were very long and stretched almost infinitely both in front of and behind me. The station was quiet: most platforms were devoid of people or trains, whilst one or two were occupied by people patiently and silently waiting. I too was waiting patiently and silently. I felt calm.

The train pulled up. It made very little sound - just the hissing of hydraulics and an implication of the turning of very well oiled wheels. It was made almost entirely of glass and the huge curved sheets were supported by a highly polished brass skeleton. It resembled a victorian bathysphere. I realised that I didn't have any bags with me. I was the only person on the platform.

The train was now stopped in front of me. Due to the glass I could see the entire interior of the carriage. It was full but not crowded. Everyone had a seat and every seat was taken. I knew every passenger. I could see friends, teachers and relatives. Most were engaged in light conversation and the atmosphere seemed to be one of excited anticipation - but not in an overtly extrovert way.

The train had no doors and I felt no urge to try to board it. 

The interior slowly filled to the very top with water and then, when it was full, the train gradually accelerated away from the platform and out of sight."

Slumber Session: Stay Positive

Pretty Lights is Colorado-based producer Derek Vincent Smith. Inspired by beauty in reflections, shadows, moments of enlightenment and soulful people, his latest album A Color Map of the Sun is currently being showcased with a full live band right across the US on Pretty Lights' Analogue Future 2013 Tour. More energised than most, his Slumber Session invokes action-filled dreams with dramatic scenes. "The mix focuses on down-tempo tracks from my PLM (Pretty Lights Music) record label. After all, our motto is 'keep it fresh and keep it crew', you know what I'm saying?"

Derek's top tips for Colorado include checking out the local music scene and heading out of the city and into the beautiful mountains.

Slumber Session: Pretty Lights

"With this Slumber Session I really wanted to showcase some amazing songs and sounds from artists // producers i'm digging at the moment with all things focused towards the dreamy, the sleepy and the overall wavy. Each track has its own individual feel I wanted to make it like a soundtrack for a dream or even just life. Each track could be a different day or night or the whole entire thing could be one long dream, you decide. 
Get in tune with mind, spirit, body and soul. Lay back close your eyes and enjoy the waves."

From the original feature on Clash Magazine: http://www.clashmusic.com/features/fluid-landscapes-exclusive-max-cooper-mix

It’s been a long time since I’ve made a full length “live” mix of just my own material, mainly because I was focused on my album in recent times. But after some new studio additions and work developing new ideas and new experiments, I’ve got enough fresh material to draw on, along with some old, to put together a new live set only composed of my originals, some remixes I’ve done, and I had to include a couple from the Inhuman remix package because there’s some great work on there from Lusine and Rodriguez Jr. among others.

I’ve approached this mix a little more like my live sets of old, keeping it pretty smooth and letting the tracks do the talking, rather than going too heavy on the genre-swapping and BPM-juggling as I have been doing on other mixes recently. There’s still some (hopefully) unexpected moments though of course, a strings solo, some crunchy glitch, backwards Nyatiti, several brand new never heard before tracks, a homemade desolation bootleg of Spastik, my first ever totally analogue tracks (I’ve only recently taken the plunge into the analogue synth world), and two live Jazz improvisation sessions recorded recently in London.

The artwork embedded is made by Andre Britz, who has literally created some "fluid landscapes" works, of which he was kind enough to donate a custom piece for this mix - Thanks Andre! You can find him here: https://www.behance.net/Andre

As a whole, the mix is about being wrapped up in a warm exploration of feelings and landscapes. It will work best with a nice pair of headphones and an open mind. I hope there’s at least some parts in there you enjoy!

Terranova: Music to... Mine Coal To

The sound of dreamland this week comes from a collaborative effort between multi instrumentalist and producer William Yates aka Memotone and Glasgow via Brighton based Soroosh Khavari aka Soosh. The pair have are set to release their atmospheric yet perfectly musical, Memoosh LP on Monday 6th October via Project Mooncircle and now deliver your mid-week lullaby exclusively for i-D. Memtone delivers the first insomnia-battling 31 minutes, followed by a meditative ending courtesy of Soosh. Press play and drift away.

"I have collected a small selection of music which, in my mind, is a perfect tonic to insomnia. There are enough imaginative ideas in the first half of the mix to tire your brain out, walking across the many wonderful and stange landscapes of your inner environment, before slowing lowering you into the deeper, more solidly rooted, sleep enducing tones. However, I feel it would be a shame to actually fall asleep as there is just as much to pay attention too in the latter half of the mix. Maybe to try and stay awake is the real key to falling asleep in this instance." https://soundcloud.com/memotone

"I've put together some of my favourite nocturnal tracks that help me wind down.   Some are mediative, while others are just classics in voice, sound and manipulation! To me anyway!  I hope it will set you all off to sleep nicely, but sometimes its good to stay awake and hear it all!  So up and down and sideways we go.  I promise not to meander too far, solace and comfort will await you but open ears are the best ears! Enjoy!" https://soundcloud.com/soosh

‘Apologues’ will be released by Erased Tapes on September 11, 2015 on LP/CD/DL and can be pre-ordered from www.erasedtapes.com/store/index/ERATP075

Masayoshi Fujita, the Berlin-based Japanese vibraphone player, also known under his alias el fog came to the attention of label founder Robert Raths a few years ago. Not only because the vibraphone is an intriguing instrument, but also the way Masayoshi treats his instrument and draws ethereal and layered sounds, is what truly attracted him to Masayoshi’s work.

Having released more ambient-based/electronic recordings of the vibraphone under el fog, Masa became more interested in the sound of the vibraphone itself. He started to compose acoustic pieces and released the first solo album under his real name, titled ‘Stories’, in early 2013. ‘Apologues’ sees Masayoshi for the first time use an array of instruments besides his lead instrument – such as the violin, cello, flute, clarinet, French horn, accordion, piano and snare drum played by friends, but arranged by Masa himself.

In addition to the mallets, Masayoshi often plays the vibraphone with a violin or cello bow, like on ‘Tears of Unicorn’ and ‘Knight and Spirit of Lake’. He would also place bead strings on the vibraphone bars to create an ambient shimmer that can be heard on songs like ‘Moonlight’ and ‘Swallow Flies High in the May Sky’. The latter was composed to let the clarinet express its characteristics and tell its story, whilst the vibraphone takes a supporting role. “The clarinet sounds very warm and soft and very ‘spring’ to me”, says Masa.

“With this album the main idea was to evoke images, atmospheres, sceneries and stories in the listener, the images that have accumulated in myself. At the same time it was an exploration of the unexplored beauty of the vibraphone, and also a pursuit of the charm of the instrumentation and the music itself. Erased Tapes releases a lot of great stuff and naturally became my favourite label of late. And I thought it would fit well to my music.” – Masayoshi Fujita
