A Quiet Way - Mysterioso Vol. 2

Low Light Mixes
About this episode

 

 

This year we've had quite a variety of mixes here at LLM headquarters. From underwater ambient to space rock guitar to alternative soundtracks to Thai funk/soul/psychedelia/surf rock. Now we take another turn, this time to atmospheric jazz. 

I've done similar mixes in the past with Halloween sets and the original Mysterioso mix 7 years ago - https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/mysterioso/

This set comes to us from Kevin, a loyal listener & a man with excellent taste in music. He has provided us with three other great mixes, which you can find here:

Here's what Kevin has to say about his mix:

"I was trying to put together an atmospheric, classic jazz mix of tunes inspired from a slowed down and reverb version of Glenn Miller's Moonlight Serenade. However, I had some trouble finding the tracks which matched what I had in mind. This ambient jazz mix happened instead.

There are a couple of ‘classics’, Duke Ellington’s haunting Solitude (1934) and Miles Davis' ethereal In A Silent Way (1969).  The other tracks are fairly recent in comparison but all have a loose jazz theme. Once I had finished the mix I discovered the Low Light Mysterioso mix which has a very similar feel and thinking behind it, dark, ambient, brooding, atmospheric. So here is Mysterioso 2 hope you enjoy listening."

Thanks for the excellent mix, Kevin. Cheers!

You're In An 80s Film Driving At Night
This mix started via a Spotify playlist with the same name - "You're in an 80s Film Driving at Night." I really liked the synth vibes so I created my own folder at home and began collecting tracks. The mix has a great retro vibe even though many of the tracks are from the last 10 ... Show More

Soundtrack for Perseid Meteor Shower 2025
The annual Perseid meteor shower peaks tonight and tomorrow night, August 12th & 13th. I like to use the Perseids as an excuse to create a spacey, ambient mix for stargazing. So here it is. The first track I grabbed for this mix was Jeff Pearce - For The Perseids, from the Gemsto ... Show More
