Bummer Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 I thought it would be strings... Anyhow, it was calm, a little bit funky, groovy, jazzy, can´t really find the right thing to call it, but this mix was real chill. OH, that´s it!

42 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Crud, this sort of reminds me of something and I can't quite think of what..... Still, this is modern, laid back, mellowy, jet setting, starlit, subdued, "hey, don't worry about it" kind of jazz. Be warned, the only flaw is there's no ending; it just randomly stops >.< I even re-downloaded it to make sure there wasn't any downloading error when I first obtained it. Still, its good stuff and worth downloading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 A bit hypnotic in it's chillness- those repeating 8ths at the beginning really calm me down, leading to a funky bassline and smoothed out chords supporting the melody. If I ever owned a boutique tea shop or something, I'd totally play this while people sipped tea and worked on their laptops. The samples aren't as rich as some of Joshua's later mixes, but they get the job done just fine. The mix is delicious and fragrant, just like the tea i would serve.

Polo Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 This mix feels minimal and experimental as it drops a chord here, a riff there, a percussion loop elsewhere, gauging their effects both small and cumulative. Changing the time signature from 3/4 to 4/4 seems to make the environment more inviting. The synth playing the arpeggios in the beginning is so plucky it could pass for a new sort of string-based instrument. I like to think the cloud-like pad at 0:34 symbolizes heaven and the bass at 0:51 represents earth, so when they combine at 1:27, a concrete visual scene emerges. "Take a vacation," the mix says. It certainly practices what it preaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
