Train to Redemption by Paul Asbury Seaman

  We are in for a real treat with this latest guest mix from Paul Asbury Seaman. Paul has done a bunch of "train" mixes over the years. He has also done several Berlin-School mixes. This one could be my favorite combo of the two themes.    This wonderful mix plays right into my current obsession with the Berlin-School subgenre. I can't say enough about how much I love this mix. As I have stated here previously, I've been on a Berlin-School bender for the last few years. Although, now that I think about it, my return to this style has gone on long enough that it is no longer a bender or binge. It's just outright love for this genre.    Paul has created an absolute gem so I'll let him tell you more about it:   “People get ready…” Popular culture, especially in music, has long used the association with trains as an image of redemption. Part of the seductive appeal of long-distance travel is that something we experience might change or enlighten us. On a train we are free of the obligations and stress of driving, but also have a more private, sedentary experience conducive to withdrawing into ourselves than on a boat, a ship or a plane, yet--to emphasize the metaphorical lesson--in stillness we are also moving forward. This is the paradox: hurtling across the landscape (or through time) while sitting comfortably, without moving. Watching. Rejuvenating."  Thanks again, Paul, for curating this fantastic collection of train tracks. ;-)  Cheers!   T R A C K L I S T : 00:00   Hollan Holmes - So Far Away (The Sanctity of Rust 2026) 04:55   Rudy Adrian - Rail Corridor(Rocky Mtns, Colorado) (Concerts In The USA 2003) 13:50   Robert Rich - Sky Tunnel (Electric Ladder 2006) 22:08   DTime - A Gleaming Silver Thread (Weaving A Dream 2024) 37:33   Aleksi Perälä - FI3AC2513503 (GRACE 15 2025) 42:54   Craig Padilla & Marvin Allen - Undercurrents of Change (Unfolding Skies 2026) 48:04   Alba Ecstasy - Reverie Two (Berlin School Reveries, Vol. 1 2025) 58:40   Dream Sequence - Turn off the lights (Live at The ICA 2026) 67:37   David Helpling & Eric Taylor - For Those in Shadow (The Precious Dark 2025) 73:33   Lars Tellmann - Midwinter Train (Komorebi Winterlight 2026) 78:54   end
