Jon hopkins - music for psychedelic therapy

Ambient alert, this album is easily my favorite ambient album since Stars of the Lids‘ finale from 2007. Beautifully soothing, sonically robust, Hopkins has such a mastery of the mix - frequency, tone, space, it’s all so perfect. I even really like the Ram Dass passage. this album is a song do not break it up into singles is my recommendation.

bleak, ruinous, claustrophobic, beautiful outsider house / techno music from one of the genre’s finest. clicked for me last year and became a great companion for wintertime wandering in the city

Aphex - #19

This came on while I was on the subway. The repetitive tones washed over me like waves and I found myself staring. I took in the space around me completely but also started to go deeper inward. A common thing people say about New York is that it can be a very lonely city. You’re surrounded by people and yet sometimes you feel so invisible. I enjoy my solitude, but this track—10 minutes long, ambient and totally unexpected—made me sit with that feeling and examine it without judgement. The very act of listening to such a unique and profound piece of music on headphones is lonely. By definition. It reminded me that music is not just a thing to enjoy but something that can move you and guide you deeper. You probably have to be in the mood. It came on for me at the right time. But if you have the patience and need a moment to yourself to think and more importantly, feel, this track is for you. See what comes up

Magical realism

Last Thursday, a meteor appeared in the night sky over Los Angeles. I stood in place for 30 seconds watching it blaze brilliant red and orange before fizzling out suddenly. The experience moved me immensely and filled me with a sense of hope that I hadn’t felt in quite some time. I read later that it was a SpaceX satellite. I wish I hadn’t.

OPening your windows when it rains

There's something about a wet and humid early morning that heals my soul. It's like a free sound bath. Especially if you are lucky and have a little bit of thunder alongside.

Taping Old Postcards / Photographs Onto Your Walls

I have done this everywhere that I have lived. There are some beautiful images lost on the discarded blank face of a postcard, and they deserve to be cherished just as much as the big piece of art you have framed in your living room. You can find many for cheap at your local thrift. There’s a lot of fun to be had in grouping different images together for a collage effect. Space them out a bit more if it all feels a bit claustrophobic. Use some blue painter's tape for a pop of color.
