ASIP - Dream The Daydream
Listen now
Description
  I like to think I’ve been productive during the lockdown, but it’s easy to look back and see that time has truly flown by and you didn’t get half the things you want to do, done. I did however manage to make a couple of mixes. One of them, a guest mix, should see the light of day in the next month or so and then this one, titled Dream The Daydream.The concept I had in mind for this mix was loose at the beginning. I wanted to create something that was happy, uplifting and melodic, as opposed to anything dark during these already dark times (and it’s very easy for me to go that way) I ended up turning to a lot of 90’s (and new but 90’s influenced) music, a couple of classics and reissues, and found myself dreaming of new worlds - that era of music had the most amazing power to transport you for some reason. The mix starts off with Ambient, but quickly moves into more dub, uptempo, breaks, beats and full-on Trance... Those of you who know me well, know I love Trance music and surprisingly this is the first time I’ve managed to sneak it into an ASIP mix.I saw this mix as a route to escapism, a look out of the window, and a journey that just goes up and up. Also big shout to Jane Fitz as I’m pretty sure on hindsight a couple of these tracks came at her recommendation at some point - an inspiration and a world of knowledge on this type of music.
