Comment:

As corny as it sounds, I've always loved cloud watching. Big groups of puffy cumulus floating gently along. Shoals of razor thin cirrus soaring high in the sky. Towering cumulonimbus blocks pouring forward, bringing the rain with them. There's quite a palette of formations to be seen and the right music gets me right up there with them. "Surfing The Stratosphere" was birthed while walking across the Brooklyn Bridge on one of our first real days of spring here in NYC. The sky was bright and full of fast moving clouds. I was, as always, plugged in and Jesu's "Farewell" completely clicked with the scene. And the rest is right here.
There's a lot of different styles in this mix, from blissful shoegazing (Jesu, Curve, MBV) to glittering ambient (Austere, HPOT... Moby?) to beat driven drone (Bowery Electric, Sinewave) to simply towering and destructive (Godflesh). And the final track, while seemingly out of place, reminds me of watching the red skies of dusk over the Wolf Rocks in Middle of Nowhere, Pennsylvania, some 30 years ago.
Call it a quirk, but for me it fits.
