Hey folks...

Here's a late-night/early morning mix of some ambient tunes that seem to simultaneously calm my nerves but also suggest there is something deep being forgotten.

I've dealt with depression for years, and through medication, all's pretty well. One unusual side effect is that i have what is clinically called "Vivid Dreaming" - in short, i have epic, bizarre, lifelike dreams almost every night, some i can remember for a long time, but like everyone, most fade at morning light into nothing.

This is a mix about those forgotten dreams.

Cheers, fellas.

It was an easy mix to make, given the quality of the tunes/artists!

In addition to our own Professor Marshall Watson and UW, of course, do check out music by Milieu, who has posted on these boards in the past - he is very prolific and has a lot of creative commons goodies online.

thanks holden - even though it's in the 30's, raining and 50 mph gusts in the states I'm getting my headset and taking the dog for a walk - seriously, this is much appreciated. :)

Has a very judge, jury, and executioner feel to it.

I might be wrong.
