Rhythm of the Rails

        This mix is a sort of follow up to the train mix of a couple of months ago.  I had a song or two that I hadn't used and then I stumbled upon the album "Simultonality" by Joshua Abrams & Natural Information Society. The track, Sideways Fall, has this great repetitive train-like feel to it.  I knew immediately that I needed to make another train mix to fit with that tune.   That Joshua Abrams track is more jazz than ambient so I decided to keep that vibe throughout the mix. A few cuts, Steve Reich, Dan Deacon & Fieldhead, wander off the jazz track a bit but they keep the sense of forward motion.   The three 2017 releases in this mix are a few of my favorite discoveries this year.  Check them out.   Joshua Abrams & Natural Information Society - Simultonality Daniel Brandt - Eternal Something Quatuor Ebene & Michel Portal - Eternal Stories     Cheers!   T R A C K L I S T : 00:00    Chris Watson - Veracruz(El Tren Fantasma 2011) 00:35    Joshua Abrams & Natural Information Society - Sideways Fall(Simultonality 2017) 08:00    Daniel Brandt - FSG(Eternal Something 2017) 11:30    The Winter Consort - The Little Train of Caipira(The Winter Consort 1968) 13:54    Ludovico Einaudi - Elements(Elements 2015) 19:35    Steve Reich - Different Trains-America Before the War(Works 1997) 25:30    Chris Watson - El Divisadero(El Tren Fantasma 2011) 27:35    Daniel Brandt - Kale Me(Eternal Something 2017) 32:35    Quatuor Ebene & Michel Portal - City Birds(Eternal Stories 2017) 38:25    Fieldhead - This Train is a Rainbow(They Shook Hands For Hours 2009) 41:42    Gerry Mulligan - K4 Pacific(The Age Of Steam 1971) 46:45    Alexandre Desplat - Night Train to Nebelsbad(Grand Budapest Hotel 2014) 48:25    Dan Deacon - USA Suite(America 2012) 58:23    end
