Another stellar guest mix comes our way with this excellent set from longtime listener, Daniel Hawkins.
Daniel says:
"So I've loved world music since before that term existed, and always had an inordinate fondness for the metallophones - gamelan, vibraphone, glockenspiel, Tibetan bowls - should we include tubular bells? Of course! I don't know if the kalimba and marimba are technically in the category, but they are in my mind. Wind chimes, tingshas, koshis, steel drum, handpan, gongs, avant-garde stuff done with trash cans and pipes - it's all good. This playlist leaves out a ton of music that Dave has covered over the years that is near and dear to me - but I wanted to do what he does so well - bring new artists to everyone's attention and still make a killer playlist. I'd thought for a looooong time about putting something together for Low Light Mixes and was so pleased with Dave's gracious response."

Very Nice, thank you.
So glad you enjoyed the mix!
Gosh! This is a mix I wish I had made. I especially love the way Daniel has drawn from several decades of ambient music. Daniel Lentz's "Lascaux" (played on glass harp, I believe) is one of my all-time favorite ambient recordings--from long before that word was used to describe modern instrumental and electronic music. Bid kudos, bro!
I had a feeling you'd like this one. :-)
Perfect journey!
:-)
