the mood by Bradfield Dumpleton
A free compilation / sampler of 9 previously released tracks, plus the unreleased "Assessing The Perimeter", which features the flugelhorn of Malcolm Martin.
I often reassemble my recordings into new combinations in order to highlight certain features of tracks, by placing them in different relationships. These tracks all share a certain moodiness, night-owled, shadowed, blending moments of electronic ambience with jazz melancholy, spacious and soothing.
The overall texture of this compilation is intended to be relaxing, with a few strange dark edges and enough touches of mellow groove to keep an active pulse...
