Been putting a lot of new music into the queue lately. Some day it’ll get reviewed. For now, it’ll get listened. Enjoy.

Pardon the delay in getting this one out. If you follow me on Facebook, you may know that I got sidelined with a back issue that literally prevented me from sitting (or standing) for more than 30 seconds at a time. I spent most of January and all of February in bed. With this episode, I should be back on track to get you your biweekly dose of the best in ambient, electronic, and contemporary instrumental. On to the music. It’s review queue goods for the first half-hour, then we pull the blinds and head into some sweet dark stuff.

For the first show of 2017, I decided to keep things on the calm side. After the emotional roller coaster that was 2016, I think we could all use it. The beginning of this flow got its start, like so many before, when the library shuffle served up the lovely first track from Anima. See you in 90 minutes.

It’s time to listen to tracks from some of my favorite albums that I reviewed this year. Settle in—we’re going long again.
