I love the strange, exotic sounds of artists such as Jon Hassell, Andrew Pekler, and William Selman. Their music takes you on an audio journey to imaginary places all around the globe. My first 4th World Excursion mix was 4 years ago with one follow up.
Here are the first two in this series: https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/folding-water-fourth-world-excursions/ https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/strange-beauty-4th-world-excursions-vol-2/
This new mix follows a similar pattern and feel as the other two - using a combination of field recordings and the sounds of bells, drums, vibraphone, various mallet instruments, the vibe creates a feeling of floating in a small wooden boat in a lagoon somewhere in Indonesia. As the waves lap against the boat you can hear distant drums, crickets, jungle birds, frogs, and odd instruments lulling you to sleep. And of course there are electronic elements to keep things interesting.
The tracklist and album links are in the comments.
