Snowed-in is an eclectic mix of some new and old standouts I put it together during yesterday afternoon(02/08) amidst the poundage that Nemo was dealing out. Its a darker mix I would say, but a more important characteristic is the volume of sound it creates. 

Lately, I've had a great attraction toward tracks and sounds that provide a deep atmosphere and ambience. Whether that is achieved through reverb, distortions, or ambient noise, it simply has to compel me to another place, another destination. 

Give it a chance and don't run off scared by the first few minutes. It's best interpreted through loud, 'bassy' speakers or a good pair of headphones, which if you don't have then an immediate investment should be made. 

Comments, good and bad, are appreciated. Thanks!!

Snowed-in Mix(02/08)

'Few Days Counting' is a reference to some big changes that are imminently going down in the next couple of weeks. Although at first I wanted to put together a few tracks that would be dance-floor appropriate, the end product diverged somewhere much different. 

About 3/4's of the way in, after giving it an intial listen, I had a clear and distinct image of descending or entering a cave. The eerie and off-beat pings and dings of Jamie XX's take on the Four Tet cut 'Lion' is reminscent of the drips and splashes while the reverb makes the mirage come alive.
