My previous Winter mixes were based on some kind of theme. The basis for this one is one word: cozy. Right now in my part of the Northern Hemisphere, cozy is what we need.

Very soothing George! This was a great choice for my workday instead of listening to news, that is for sure! And tracks 6 and 7 for the win! I thought for sure they were 80s tunes that I wasn't familiar with, but not so much! And for the new artist I will now look up, Ray Barretto Orchestra! Loved it!
Thank you, Christine! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! As for your favorites, John Foxx and Robin Guthrie were both active in the 80s, I guess that comes through in this track from 2009. And track 7 is my first attempt to work in something from the vaporwave genre, which often references the 80s. (If you're not familiar with vaporwave, don't Google it unless you want to stay up all night!)
Well done

Hi Guillaume, thank you for your kind words! I'm so glad you enjoyed the music!
Hello my friend 😃 Another very eclectic compilation. I heard a lot of it for the first time today and I wasn't disappointed. It's really nice to relax to something like this amidst all the trouble in the world. I would never dare to combine so many different styles. You've made it so that it works. 👍🫶🎶
Thank you, Joe! That is a nice compliment. I enjoy blending different styles so they flow together and sound like one happy family!
