This is my first mix experimenting with mixing in spoken word into the music. I grabbed the audio from a David Attenborough show about dragonflies, popped in some nice summery english tunes and here you have it! Hope you like it guys 🙂

1. Future Loop Foundation – A Very English Summer
2. Bent – King Wisp
3. The Merkin Dream – Softly
4. Amanaska – Falling Up
5. Piana – Blue Bells
6. Fragile State – Paper Smile
7. Laura B – Ice Cold Water (telefuzz remix)
8. Susumu Yokota – King Dragonfly
9. Future Loop Foundation – Sunshine Philosphy
10. Helios – dragonfly across an ancient sky
11. King of Woolworths – take the strain
12. Bonobo – Terrapin
13. Lol hammond – Love forgotten

Well, this is just the most sublime, gentle mix to be listenig to on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
Just beautiful. Sooooo relaxing.
Nothing new or innovative really, just put together with care & imagination.
Lovin it Tom, thank you so much fella.

This a really, really nice mix. Attenborough is a bit unusual but reminiscent of Planet Earth’s rousing use of Sigor Ros.

Excuse the ignorance but what is the section at 45mins?

Thanks for the comment Lenodd and Grave 🙂 Makes it all worthwhile!

Grave Maurice – 45 mins is about a minute into Sunshine Philosophy by Future Loop Foundation off the Memories of a Fading Room album. I highly recommend the whole album:

Heard this a while back, and really enjoyed it then. Anything with David Attenborough gets my vote. Nicely chilled flow and some sweet mixes.

Just bought me the FLF album (& the remix disc) on the strength of your recommendation. Thanks.

Very nicely done. A bit too ‘dreamy’ for me in places, but enjoyed listening.

Thanks Matrix – thanks for stopping by 🙂 dreamy is my business, sorry if it went OTT in places 🙂

Grave – you won’t be disappointed!

Got interrupted about 10mins in, but I can tell from what I’ve heard (and from the tracklist) that this is one tailor made for my tastes. Looking forward to checking the rest of it.

Cheers Tom.
