Checking out the first vid now...I like it. Reminds me of a lot of the mellow IDM I listen to, but with some deep house flavor. It's been ages since my deep house phase, and it's refreshing to hear it with a bit of an IDM twist.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.

This stuff is good and I like it too! I just love the ambience that they create and when I close my eyes I imagine the sun rising over the horizon of the Mediterranean, which equals perfect in my book

Thanks for sharing! Brightened my Monday up

glad you folks enjoyed it!

yeah the first tune, Love Me Like This....always puts me in a great mood. good to get down and dance to, as well as sit back and reflect.

Promises by Floating Points, Pharoah Sanders & The London Symphony Orchestra.

I didn't get as much Pharoah as I'd have liked, but this is still really great for those late nights where you slowly down the 4th cocktail, staring into the void and wondering where it all went wrong.

It's a nice sounding album for sure but I just don't see where the heaps of praise are coming from.

Sounds like you get it. It's just like, really nice. Floating Points carries it imo, you could remove Pharoah and this would be just as good of a listen.

To me I liked it but I felt that it took forever for it to progress, like three songs in there were probably 8ish notes pharoah even plays, but I did like Floating Points contribution and I like their future garage stuff pretty well also.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.
