After a couple instances of deviating from course, with this episode we get back into the cadence where we begin the show with new-ish music then go a’delving in all the good stuff in the library. This time around, even the less-new music turns up a pair of artists who’ve never been played here before!

Next time, the host promised, we’ll get back to the format where half the show is new music and the rest digs into the library. But once I got going with the new music on this one, well, I just couldn’t stop myself. Raise your hand if you’d like to complain about hearing all new music. No one? All righty, then, let’s get this thing underway.

Episode 168 So much music, so little time. Because this podcast focuses on music that is sent to Hypnagogue for review, and because so much music is sent for review, appearances here tend to be fleeting. There are a lot of artists who’ve only appeared once on the show, and it’s not for lack of quality. So now and then I pop open my playlist spreadsheet, sort it by artist, look for those who’ve only been played here once, and give them another go-round. The flow is uninterrupted this time. See you in 90.

Start Ian Morris, I Like the Way We Whisper Even When No One Is Around, Parking Lot Manuscripts 4.36 John Davis, Palestrina, Ask the Dust 9.09 Anklebiter, Never Like This, Weight of a Pronoun 14.54 Mokhov, Soul Breeze, Future Hope 18.35 Silencio, Embarcadero, Flood 24.14 Bvdub, We Love Together (It’s Our World), Born in Tokyo 37.32 William John Grega, Breath of Being, Breath of Being 43.07 Entheogen, Singularity of Infinite Complexity, Singularity 51.16 Jim Graham, Steel Dawn, Connexion 55.19 John Luttrell, Ethereal Raga, The Dream Exchange 59.59 Specta Ciera, Forgotten Room, Underpass 1.03.35 Ben John Robertson, Fall, When We Were Close, It Was What Was in the Sky That Day 1.16.30 Collapsar, Into the Worm Hole, Beyond the Event Horizon 1.26.05 NC Thompson, Saying Goodnight, Another Quiet Winter

Episode 167 We start with a track that made me smile, and it just flows from there. By the time we reach the end, things will quiet down a bit.

A show that came together in two straight-through sessions of flow creation. Went pretty deep into the library for this one—had to convert some tracks that I hadn’t played before but have held onto for a while. PLUS, this episode contains the show’s 2000th track! You’ll find out which at the end! And to my friends at Spotted Peccary, who get the benefit of my putting three tracks from their releases in here because I don’t pay attention to labels when I’m deep in the mix…you’re welcome.

When I started this episode, it was going to be one where we stop in the middle, between the new and old sections, like we have been. But from the Chords of Orion track on, the show fell into a deep flow that I didn’t feel like interrupting. So away we go. Sorry about the throat clearing in the outro. Forgot to edit.

Gotta love it when a good flow comes together. Or two good flows, for that matter. These two sets, so rudely interrupted by the talky guy in the middle, both find their own distinct groove. At the end, we close with a track from a legend who recently left us.
