Hello again, here’s my first solo audio-only mix for a while. It’s mainly an ambient, atmospheric affair with a few more upbeat sections thrown in. Sleepy, romantic, melancholy and silly.

2 – Overtime Work – Yoshinori Sunahara
3 – The Goodbye Highway – Tim ‘Love’ Lee
4 – Journey To Blofeld’s Hideaway – John Barry
5 – Mango Pickledown River – M.I.A.
6 – Girl Problem – Her Space Holiday
7 – Cardiac Arrest – Firefox AK
8 – Main Title – Saint Etienne
9 – Gold Bug – R.O.C.
10 – Together In Electric Dreams – Lali Puna
11 – Fat Cat – Amorphous Androgynous
12 – Lagoon West – Richard H Kirk
13 – Mena Creek Paronella Park Walk – Digifishmusic
14 – St Ives Bay – Tom Middleton
15 – Pretend It’s A Race And I’m On Your Side – James Figurine
16 – Snapshot – The Art Of Noise
17 – Trip 7 – Pete Namlook
18 – Another Fairytale Ending – Amorphous Androgynous
19 – Chesh – The Black Dog
20 – Niobe – Caribou
21 – Frosch – Mouse On Mars
22 – Love’s Theme – Barry White
23 – A While Ago And Recently – Erlend Oye
Some of these records are absolute treasure.
Better than advertised. I just recently discovered Amorphous Androgynous, they create some awesome sounds.
Peace.
indeed they do. great mixes as well. shedloads ov stuff can be d/led from fsol.disenchanted.com. jus klik on “files” link
Great mix. Many tracks and artists I’m fond of. I love Lagoon West , I played it on the radio years back , it’s an epic track. I end up humming it at odd times. Amorphous, Mouse On Mars, lal Puna (603 is a gem by them), Love’s Theme by barry White, etc, you must have been in my vinyl bin. Great mix.
Nice to see you on the solo tip again Ed. Looks a good un, on the d/l now. cheers hp
Yes, Lagoon West has always been one of my all-time favourites. It’s just so beautiful (and epic as you say). Really evocative, tranquil, and inspiring at the same time. That whole Richard H Kirk album is superb but Lagoon West has really stood the test of time for me.
The other two favourites for me on here are the Caribou and Erlend Oye tracks.
Niobe has got such a totally unique sound. It’s the most banging and mellow at the same time – really inventive. The whole Caribou album is great, but none of it sounds like this.
“A while ago and recently” is just amazing. Right up there with my favourite songs of the last few years. The music and lyrics are unhurried and understated. The whole thing has a real melancholy beauty.
I’d definitely agree with the FSOL / Amorphous recommendations. Their essential mix from 1993 is basically why I’m here doing these mixes.
Thanks for the comments guys, hope you all like the mix.
Yeah, the music’s alright I suppose. But the cover photography is awesome. 🙂
i totally agree with you on caribou niobe. thats indeed a very special track – cant wait to download this mix.
ye. nice mix ed
I like your mixes ED……… cheers mate
Cheers Polanski – hope you like this one as well.
Wow, will be digging a bit deeper on some of these artists. Nice one.
enjoyed this one ed – some tunes I will definitely be digging for; the vibe and the samples were excellent. Chesh as always is a winner and I think that mouse on mars tune was amazing (if thats the right one).
Still – good stuff, must listen again!
Top stuff as usual Edward… hats off. I haven’t paid close attention to the tracklist (yet), but there’s a couple of excellent bits that sound like ambient versions of some classic dance tracks I remember from the 90’s. Hang on, I remember them does that mean I wasn’t really there?
Not my usual mix of choice, but you came up trumps again mate.
Really enjoyed this, I think that I pick the right mood to listen to your mixes as sometimes I can’t be arsed with slower stuff.
A really lovely, serene mix.
Gotta say that, listening to this for the first time, I was reminded somewhat of some of bongs earlier mixes ?
Please take that as a compliment btw.
Thank you.
🙂
Thanks for the nice comments everyone – makes it all worthwhile. (Obviously I do it for the love of the music etc etc, but I do like to get my ego stroked every now and then!).
That’s probably the Caribou track which I reckon is a dead-ringer for Binary Finary but isn’t credited anywhere. I’m sure you were there in the 90’s, maybe you’re just remembering the tracks from a Ministry of Sound TV Ad?
It’s more sinister than that, I actually watch you 24hrs and wait until you’re in just the right mood before posting a new mix! I’m glad all that surveilance effort paid off this time…
Yeah, definitely a compliment. I’m always amazed with Bong’s mixes how he gets them so detailed and densely packed while still posting one pretty much every month.
Ta very much all (apart from that “Don Goodwin” character), Ed
ha ha ha!!! In that case you’ve been watching me dogging… don’t tell anyone 😉
Also meant to mention how good it was to hear Amorphous Androgynous again… used to batter their album with a load of mates in my first year of Uni (’93) smoking something that should remain anonymous……
Unless I’m totally mistaken that was a pseudonym for FSOL.
thanks edward. look out for this months densely packed mix… a big ambient fukka
Very keen to listen to this, but it’s just hung twice whilst downloading – will try again another time.
Thanks for the fsol.disenchanted.com link Edward, I’m a massive FSOL fan, and interested that the 93 Essential Mix was the one that set you off, as for me it was a tape of the 94 mix (complete with a Radio 1 Newsbeat about Tony Blair being favourite to win the Labour leadership contest!). I also loved that ISDN album they released soon after. I hadn’t heard the 93 mix, but have just downloaded and looking forward to listening. Hopefully my d/l will sort itself out soon, and I can listen to your mix too.
ive jus d/l complete file no problemo. lookz like a prob your end mr_l
Mr_lovely: Thank Swamp for the link to FSOL stuff. It was a new one for me – there’s lots of FSOL goodness on that site I don’t have yet.
Maybe it’s just ‘cos it was the first one I heard, but the 93 mix is definitely my favourite. I can’t remember what was on NewsBeat that day though. I carefully dubbed over the news using excerpts from the Cascade CD single on my copy.
If you’re still having trouble downloading the mix, you can also get it from MixDownloads.Net or just e-mail me.
Ed
93 essential mix is the bomb
Listened to this twice now, lovely stuff, thanks! 🙂
Ed, listened to this loads now. What can I say except Brilliaaaaaaant (on a Fast Show tip at the mo). Loved your clever little tweaks as usual, you’ve got a great ear for mixing stuff up m8.
Yeah that Disenchanted site is mind boggling. I spent a week last christmas clearing it out completely. Probably never get to listen to all of it but what a treasure trove of material. (I wish there was a similar site for The Orb – is there??) Like loads of peeps here if it wasn’t for the 93 FSOL Essential mix I would’nt be here now. Thank god it inpired so many of us. cheers hp 🙂
Absolutely loved this throughout (once I’d finally got it to download). Great vibe, inspired tunes and original samples. A really fresh sounding chilled mix that has plenty enough depth to make it a keeper. Thanks Edward.
Edward, this mix is awesome!!!! It’s like you picked out all my favorite electronic tracks! I love every track on this mix! I have been stuck in this rut of rock lately that I have not been able to escape. I DO beleive this mix has cured me for a while… I am back into electronix again.. WooHooo!!! Especially when I heard that classic Art Of Noise melody. I just love the old electronic anolog sound. I now know what my next mix will be… Back to my first love… electronic joy! Thanks for the inspiration.
Wow, I don’t think I’ve ever inspired anyone before. Cheers Green Cheese, I’m a big fan of your more electronic mixes as you know so I’m glad to hear I’ve got you back in the mood for one.
Edward, Once again, I want to thank you for the inspiration. As a result, I have finished my new mix 🙂 Green Cheese Vol 42 (Houston We Have A Problem)… Check it out when you get a moment… sooo glad to be back into electronix! Forgot how embedded that is into my soul! Takes me way back!
R.I.P. The great Arthur C Clarke who’s work features throughout this mix.
