Frontiers #7 - May 2020

 

Frontiers #7 was another attempt to replicate the formula that had made the first March mix so successful. Each mix is getting more consistent than the last.

Frontiers #1 - December 2019

 

It's been a while since I've uploaded anything to this podcast, eh?

The truth of the matter is that I ended up getting pretty burned out with music by the end of things. What I had initially planned on being a break of a month or two turned into a hiatus of a few years - not just from a podcast/mix standpoint, but with my original music as well. Quite honestly, I'm still trying to recover in the latter area.

Around the end of 2019, I started experimenting with recording "progressive" mixes along the lines of what you might hear from record labels like Anjunadeep and Colorize, and I discovered that I had a great love for this kind of music. As the COVID-19 pandemic progressed, I recorded them more regularly, and though they haven't always been perfect, I've refined their sound enough to the point that I'm comfortable sharing them.

Over the coming weeks, I'll be uploading some of my favorites from the past few months onto this podcast, and I'll be sure to keep it updated with the new releases beyond that.

For now, here's the mix that kickstarted this whole thing back in November, nearly 3 years to the day that Summit Sessions ended. Enjoy.
