A sad voice. A sad chord. Drums and hi-hats. Maybe some beeps.

So excited to listen to this. They are one of the outstanding electronic producers of this decade.

This mix is the only thing that has been keeping me from losing my mind this week. Just lovely.

Digital-only? From the Prince of Denmark, Mr. "you will never have everything."? Maybe he's still feeling guilty for that limited run €100 [8x]LP?

I shouldn't criticize him - he makes lovely music, and because it's unlikely I'll buy a limited pressing release from him due to his internet fame, I appreciate being able to legitimately get his music for free.

A plausible theory suggested by a Resident Advisor commenter is that this is a dump of all of the artist’s older, Giegling-era material, effectively putting a capstone on their relationship with the label.

Lately I've been enjoying the Chilled Cow stream, not quite as melancholy as Planet Lonely, but maybe the kind of beats you listen to while it's raining outside.

In my advanced age, I've lost all patience with edition-chasing and intra-format wankery, but thankfully the kids are making it all very easy to find this person's stuff. And the music itself is quite nice. So thanks for the clue-in.

Is any of this available on Spotify? If not, could some helpful soul suggest something similar that is?
