So, in preparation for the new Tolkien series, i've been reading lots of the legendarium. The magical battles of the first age are my favourites, because of their scale and novelty - I love the idea of the first dragon, Glaurung, emerging and terrifying the world in the battle of sudden flame. I guess this mix is my way of soundtracking that event, however inadequately. 

My normal audio recorder crashed so i tried something new here. hopefully the sound quality isn't too bad.

On the sleeve notes to BT's 1995 album Ima was an ee cummings quote. between the beauty of those words, the amazing images on the sleeve, and the astonishing music contained on the record itself, i fell in love with electronic music. I guess since then i've been trying to manifest that wonder every time i play. i rarely manage it. but i see no reason to stop trying. 

deeds cannot dream what dreams can do
—time is a tree(this life one leaf)
but love is the sky and i am for you
just so long and long enough
