This is a mix I did in 2008 & I guess it's appropriate that it's an old mix because all the tunes are more than ten years old. I listened to Steve Roach's "Structures from Silence" & realized what a great piece of ambient music it is. So I dug into my ambient archives & found tracks that were at least 12 years old.
Structures is from 1984, Aphex Twin cut is 1994, Jeff Pearce 1999 and Eno cuts are from 1978.

Hmm...Rhubarb by Aphex Twin. I can only find #3 attributed to that artist. Interesting artist for sure. Got us a Tracklist to go with this great mix?
Here's a good description from Pitchfork of the discrepancy between the untitled tracks and the track names:
"The titles that fans today frequently use to refer to the album’s untitled tracks grew out of discussions in places like Hyperreal’s IDM listserv. As Marc Weidenbaum details in his 33 1/3 book on the album, those titles were eventually collated by Greg Eden, an IDM list member and eventual Warp Records employee. Though unofficial, they have taken on the weight of historical fact: If you rip the CDs into your computer, the Gracenote database will automatically tag the tracks according to the fan-sourced titles."

Wish I could find a copy of that Thom Brennan track. It's so good!!
You're so right! That track is excellent. Good news - I found it! Projekt has it here... https://www.projekt.com/store/product/pro00072/
I enjoyed the Steve Roach track.
:-)
very nice
Thanks for listening!
nice
This is wonderful. Faved. Thanks!
oh!
Fantastic mix! Some old 'classics' flowing nicely in this set...
"Sparrowfall" slipped out of my collection several decades ago when I lent it to a "friend." I weep to hear it again. Thanks so much!
