some mixes

and stories that go with them

sorry if there are duplicate songs.  they were all done nearly decades apart and many are my favorite tunes :)

the fisherman - ambIdm - 11.16.2013

3 1/2 hour mix I did for some friends of my folks...old people :)  tried to keep it mellow but the second half ended up not so mellow...

the fisherman - broken brock . ambient mix

a hour mix I did in the hospital on a laptop in bed weeks after waking up from a coma, combined with a 2 hour mix I did in '95

at 3am on a rainy night after crashing my XR on laurel canyon in shorts, tshirt & helmet...the cure for lots of roadrash

was vicodin & glenmorangie 18 year (and lots hydrogen peroxide, steel-wool & neosporin) which resulted in that part of the mix.

I can't remember which part it is, as I found the DATs 10 years ago but i'm going to guess the first part because it really

feels like too much hydrocodone & scotch on a dark and stormy night.  yes, I have always been a nutter...but having fun the whole ride!

the fisherman - live at Freon2

gig at the 2nd Freon party @ Fais Do-Do

a wonderful ambient event put on by mary withers & crew.  my mom & little sister chaperoned me to it :)

this was months after I got out of the hospital...still missing 1/3 of skull &

had a hockey helmet on.  made wearing cans not so easy...

sorry for just links, a free SoundCloud account is only 2 hours and the just the 1st mix killed that cap.

setting up a web player that streamed VBR files didn't work...

any modern browser should stream them internally.  if not, download and play!

warning:  they are huge files, I encoded them as max bitrate VBR.  hadn't planed on uploads
