The Cloud Appreciation Society

The Cloud Appreciation Society

00:00

I recently read an article in the New York Times that was published in 2016 about an unlikely group that started back in 2004 to sing the praises of...clouds. These devotees are known as "The Cloud Appreciation Society."

Here's a link to the NYT article... https://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/08/magazine/the-amateur-cloud-society-that-sort-of-rattled-the-scientific-community.html

And the society... https://cloudappreciationsociety.org/

The name of the group stuck in my head as a possible theme and title for a mix. So here it is, a cloud themed mix. All the tracks have the word "cloud" in their titles. The music is appropriately drifting and relaxing. All the tunes are relatively new except for a few tracks from 2008, 2014, 2015 and one which reaches back to a Folkways record from 1981.

Look up, admire the clouds drifting by and float away with this mix.

Tracklist is in the comments.

This mix was born from the title alone so I'm glad you were intrigued by it. Cheers!

Loving this mix, as I do with all of your mixcloud mixes! Incidentally I did a cloud theme based show recently, not all ambient at all, but all reference clouds in the title: https://www.mixcloud.com/melodicdistraction/the-goldarndest-mixtapes-clouds-with-richie-anderson-february-21/
