The name is a Joe Gould's Secret reference, and the music is the sound of your brain when walking home after a night out. Or a Sunday afternoon with a surreal book.
This is where experimental ambient, nu jazz, twisted classical, and indietronica combine into a new flavour.
There are big names on here like Boards of Canada, Hammock, Julius Eastman, Shabaka, Rosie Lowe, Auntie Flo, Olafur Arnalds, and DJ Harrison.
But also there's the supersonically rising stars of Resavoir, Carlos Nino, Fabiano do Nascimento, African-American Sound Recordings, etc.
I love every track on this mix, and some have entered the levels of the subconscious where I know there'll live for many years. We Didn't Know We Were Ready is an excellent example of that.
Turn off, tune out, drop it.
