If the last two recommendations are a bit too lively for your lazy Sunday then save them for another day and sink into this, especially those that enjoyed the Broken Chip LP I recommended a couple of weeks back. Ian Hawgood, the Home Normal driving force, has only gone and done a 45 minute mix of his favourite Broken Chip’s tracks, which is the perfect gateway to explore the artist’s work without doing all the hard digging first.
As you’d expect from the proprietor of one of the world’s finest ambient labels the track selection is impeccable and the mixing spot on; a smoother flowing ambient suite you’ll struggle to find. If ambient mixes are your thing then you should also explore the label’s Bandcamp page as a whole series of mixes dropped this year to celebrate the label’s 15th anniversary.
Playlist Companion:
You can find Broken Chip and other great ambient artists in the well named Slow Ambient Playlist.
