Happy weekend everybody! As promised, I’m sending up the Autumn 2014 Mixtape Sessions Volume 2 for your relaxation and pleasure.  I’m thinking I should have been a little more original and called these Fall Chill, but I was in brain drain mode at the time.
While equally as stimulating as the first, this set definitely pulls back the reigns for a steady stream of soul-satisfying atmospherics.  The slow-moving beats of “Djon Maya Mai” by French duo Synapson kicks the set-off and pretty much sets the mood thereafter.  Each deep house, indie or nu-disco tune smoothly glides in and out of consciousness creating a great escape from reality.
Every song here is a standout but if I had to pick some jewels other than the first song, I’d definitely go with London Grammar‘s beautiful “Strong,”  the indie to nu-disco “Salt” by Junior Sanchez  & Bad Suns and the lilting elegance of “Simple Love” by Julio Bashmore with J Danna on vocals.
Jessie Ware who was in my personal top ten for 2013, has been dropping some new singles and remixes of previous tunes since June.  I’m not sure if these will be included on a new album but they are all so damn good it was hard to decide which one to pick.  Ultimately, I went with the “Two Inch Punch Mix” of If You’re Never Gonna Move just for its sheer beauty and a previous personal connection to the song.  Jessie’s highly anticipated new album Tough Love drops October 6th so be sure to keep your hearts and ears open.
Newcomer Superhand recently released their second single “Crystal Pianos.”  The Anglo-Swedish duo is an experimental team dabbling in musical sounds that draw from rock, electronica, blues, and soul.  At first listen,
