Ambient & medicine music has been a blessing in this last years of my life. A gift, really. It’s been guiding me through my own inner journey—through healing, through feeling, through exploring —and I’m grateful beyond words for how it continues to hold space for me and all those who come across some of this soul & earth inspired music.

This Glass Garden session was recorded in nature, where I grew up. It’s a mix of songs I’ve gathered, new music I love, and some of my own ambient work—improvised in the moment, guided by presence. I truly hope it brings you what it brought me: healing, acceptance, a sense of inner space.

Thank you to Glass Garden, @alysmusique and @dobmusique , for creating such a beautiful series, and thank you to everyone who takes the time to listen. I’m honored to share this chapter of the journey with you.

Up the mountain

It's difficult to find the right words to put to this one. These are certainly the darkest times I can remember living through. The murder of George Floyd was as senseless as it was predictable, in the midst of a period that I feel confident history will judge as abhorrently lacking in leadership. The anger and anguish brought to the fore in this moment clearly run far deeper than just one egregious injustice. I'd love to be able to say I felt more optimism, that we've really reached the crossroads this time. But to be bluntly honest I'm not sure I believe it. I suspect America still has a very long and difficult road ahead, as we stumble after a story to bind us together, beyond individual self-determination.

I hope it goes without saying that I don't think a DJ mix accomplishes anything of socio-political substance, and it honestly feels fairly navel-gazing to be putting out an "abstract feelings" mix right now. But music is a constant companion for me, so here we are. All I'll say about this mix musically is that it's ambient and it doesn't really have a goal. Might make you feel tense and angry, might create a calm space for feeling sad, might do something else entirely. If you do choose to spend an hour with it, I hope you will find it worthwhile.

Mark Slee - Observance: Vigil [June 2020]

An expanse ahead, many possible paths, one unknown future. A very long night has lingered, hopefully the breaking of a new day will follow with a sense of resolution. These next few days are sure to be stressful - depending upon how you choose listen, this selection of ambient music may either reflect that tension, or be a kind of antidote, a salve. May we all find a peaceful way through.

Dawn: Predilection

Mark Slee - Dawn: Predilection [November 2020]

Hard to fathom that the year is already drawing to a close. As strange as it has all been, I'm left with the feeling that the time has just gently disappeared, without so many of life's usual events and occurrences to register its passage. And yet, the turning of 2019 of course feels a lifetime ago. Ambient music for me has a bit of that timeless quality, a formlessness, an amorphous sinking-in. So here's a bit of that — to hopefully help unwind, and perhaps to look forward to a more regularly scheduled future.
