Tristesse D’Automne (Mix)

Tristesse by Jenny Lynne

This mix was created especially for Headphone Commute.
Thanks to H_C for publishing it, and for the beautiful introduction words:

Autumn is here. Darkness slowly creeps up just a little bit earlier. Clouds get grayer and swell up with rain. Trees shed their colors and tighten their belts. And people begin to prepare for winter. But among all the shadows there’s a small ray of light. And with that glow comes the music… For today’s exclusive podcast, Peter van Cooten weaves in layers of haunting soundscapes spanning the gray-scale of the ambient universe. It’s a gorgeous soundtrack to the season of tears… I hope you will enjoy!

    Although it’s winter, this is capturing the Fall experience so very accurately. The seed of sound that this is placing into my mind early this morning is feeling rather nice. Peace.

    This is an excellent mix…a ‘go-to’ for me when I’m trying to get through a lot of work and need something non-obtrusive.

    I *think* there’s a Boards of Canada sample at the 6:30 mark. Those distant, moving synth melodic lines. Super cool.

  3. Well said Tim! However I almost found the mid section of the mix too disturbing. It created a really eerie tension relationship with my head. But when the release came (those lovely piano motifs especially) I felt calmed once again. A great mix from start to finish. 🙂

  4. I’m fresh back from my first solitary retreat. Not long, only 4 days but enough to get the taste of a mind by itself in the countryside with no distractions. ANYHOW… upon this pilgramage I confirmed what I suspected that this mix is in fact a GREAT WORK. I’ve been a fan and follower of the Headphone Commute and subsequently Peter van Cooten for a long time but this mix is a cut above. The selection, pace, cadence, juxtaposition, collage, transitions are exquisite. Prepare for a day in a rural log cabin, wait for the light to begin fading and immerse to this.

    woke up to a misty day, clouds engulfing the mountains I can see from my apartment window. Mountains and buildings all slowly disappearing, looking ghostly. Everything seems to move slower on days like these. This mix was perfect 😉
