Adrift In Isolation (13)

16 August 2024


 

Number 13 in my 'Year of Music' series is now 'Adrift In Isolation'. The cover is almost the same, it is the same photo, just with a light edit to accommodate the new title.

 

This was actually the most played mix of mine on Mixcloud, thanks to my friend Matt Foord, who tagged a few influential ambient artists, which in turn led to it being shared by the excellent 'Low Light Mixes'. I'm not great at the tagging, marketing and pushing myself out there, I tend to feel I'm not good enough and not worthy of doing that. In the back of my mind is the fact that it might attract the trolls which I've had to deal with before, and although I like to think I can let it all blow over me, it definitely planted seeds of doubt and led to me doing less mixes and posts. 

 

Anyway, as you might have gathered, this mix and the next few I post are various shades of ambient. My original intention on the 'Year of Music' series was that there would be a flow or connection from mix to mix and month to month. By this stage that thought had evaporated into thin air... it was pretty challenging doing weekly mixes for a year and trying to keep it interesting and try and drum up interest. On that point, you can find out more about the 'Year of Music' series [HERE]. Also, if you prefer a Soundcloud stream, then you can find that [HERE] for the moment.
