Dawn Secrets

What exactly happens at the moment night changes back into day again, when darkness slowly retreats and light comes back in?  Are we aware of what happens outside, at that time of day most of us are still sleeping?  What sort of animals or creatures are hiding from the light, and what sort finally dare to come out again?  Would we discover “Dawn Secrets” when we’d leave our own safe and familiar surroundings? To be honest, I did not start this mix with this theme in mind…it just ‘dawned’ on me when listening to it when it was almost finished…But from the start, I wanted this mix to have a strong ‘environmental’ feel (but not only include field recordings). --- originally published on Ambientblog --- Playlist: 00:00 Atom TM - Notturni No.1- 1i3835tra3Um3, 2010, Rather Interesting RI06700:52 Atom TM - Notturni No.2- 1i3835tra3Um3, 2010, Rather Interesting RI06702:54 Plinth - Drift- Flotsam, 2006, Second Language SL05X04:47 Jon Hopkins- Dawn - Monsters (OST), 2010, Domino Records DS036CD06:03 Simon Whetham - Music's a Wood you Walk Through- Wood - Dragon's Eye Fifth Anniversary, 2011, Dragon's Eye Recording de600807:54 Enrico Coniglio - The Crab's Secrets- Underwater Noises, 2011, Ephre Imprint/Lost Children Netlabel10:19 Mariolina Zitta - Cave Calls- Concert for Bats, Voices and Natural Sounds, 2007, Earth Ear ee614212:50 Philip Samartzis - General Electric- Audible Geography, 2008, Room40 EDRM41613:50 Un Vortice di Bassa Pressione - Hydrocoma Pt. 3- Underwater Noises, 2011, Ephre Imprint/Lost Children Netlabel15:30 Listening Mirror - The Organist- Coffee Break Ambient, 2010, Audio Gourmet Netlabel AGN02115:50 Chubby Wolf - Vocal Sounds Vibrate Air- Wood - Dragon's Eye Fifth Anniversary, 2011, Dragon's Eye Recording de600816:24 Balmorhea - Palestrina- Constellations, 2010, Western Vinyl WEST07020:50 Johann Johannsson - Sifreri- Explorer's Club 7 - Reykjavik, 2010, Loaf LOAF36D722:07 Wil Bolton - Slate- Time Lapse, 2010, Hibernate HB2223:40 Sigur Rós - Kafari- Sing me to Sleep (Indie Lullabies), 2010, American Laundromat Records ALR-002328:35 Jos Smolders - Aiolos (Vangsaa Exterior)- Various Sampler Contributions, 2010, Earlabs32:43 Julien Mier - Breathe With Me- Flakes, 2010, Esc.Rec esc.rec.30 / Lomechanik lomek1534:28 Sleepingdog - Polish Love Song- Sampler Winter 2010, 2010, Gizeh Records37:40 Markus Mehr - Datenwolke- Lava, 2010, Hidden Shoal Recordings HSR06939:40 Keith Kenniff - Anchor's Hold- The Last Survivor, 2010, Unseen Music40:52 Jon Hopkins - Attack- Monsters (OST), 2010, Domino Records DS036CD42:16 MiaMia - Bend Over Harder- Flakes, 2010, Esc.Rec esc.rec.30 / Lomechanik lomek1543:50 Enrico Coniglio - Fondamente Nove Incl. 130 Cm S- Salicornie Topofonie, Vol. 2, 2010, Psychonavigation PSY03947:25 Giya Kancheli - Theme From Hamlet, Var.
