.Are you still reading this whited out secret text? You must really be an html GEEK!
One for early Sunday A.M.'s: real vs. synthetic. Still soft & blurry...but with classical, avant-garde & ambient infusion: 46"/30" strings to ether blend (if you're expecting Mozart, however--a nice enough fella' in his own right--you may want to think twice before downloading). This, an unexpected follow up to part one, coming on the heels of some recent digital trades involving jazz, classical & the obligatory ether.
(oh, and 1000 pardons, please, for my using Deaf Center twice; given the allotted minutes per artist, it's really in keeping with the mix's tally...& once you've actually HEARD them, you'll, uh...know why).

Your timing is impeccable. I just got done listening to Chicago Symphony Orchestra_03_Symphony No. 7 III. Scherzo Sehr schnel and now there is this.

I hope you like it, Terry. I've listened to it several times and like it better than part one. I like finding "crossover" ambient artists who mix in cello, violins and other string arrangements along with their synth-work.

I listened to this mix this evening with an open mind and an open mouth ( partly in awe and partly so I could knock beer down my throat ). Found it most enlightening. I enjoyed the Dan Trueman, thought the Robert Rich was beautiful.. As was the mix as a whole.... Many thanks for the links to your back catalogue also.

Ah, a little brew with your Beaux-Arts, eh? For me it's usually a Shiraz (Wishing Tree, 4 Sisters), or a Merlot (Bogle) or some Pinot Noir (Beringer)...& Pinot Grigio for the Mrs...
But an ice cold (freezer for 10-12 minutes, prior) Becks, Bass IPA or a limed Corona'll do the trick as well. Hmmm...baseball playoffs tonight? I'll have to make a few stops on the way home.
Thanks for the comments.

Ahem, typically, in the sense that you made it. Nothing typical in regards to the levels of quality and sequencing and deft touch applied in comparison to most submissions around these parts. That is.

Absolutely gorgeous. Especially dug Schubert's adagio a bunch, and also, since I have been listening to a lot of piano lately, the Robert Rich piece. Great mix.
