Washoe Valley Spring Break

February - March 2023

A mix for the spring equinox that is in remembrance of this past February's constraints. It is inspired by the several times when unconsciously purposely unsafely driving through the blizzards in Washoe Valley at night, by waking up to a lack of sun in small windowed basements, and by the transition from the portals of analog b&w frozen fogs to the sterile, blinding blue spring skies. Not a particularly easy listen, but maybe charitable to those that sleep with noise machines.

Washoe Valley Spring Break

Inspired by the Oliver Stone movie, "Born on the Fourth of July," featuring Tom Cruise. The movie is good, not great, but I haven't stopped thinking about it. Maybe because Oliver Stone is a master at limited hangouts. Maybe because there was a good chance I was supposed to be born that day. I'm sure the autobiography by Ron Kovic is great. Pretty upsetting how Forest Gump co-opted the character with such a fragile story as a supporting role.

I thought the title lends itself easily for a mix to bring on the summer solstice.
