OTAD#72 - Pilgrims of the Mind
heavenly downtempo
I am still surfing the barrels born from the ripples of my digging through Ex-Terrestrial and his friends’ work. Someone from his entourage I did not mention yet is dust-e-1, who is also known under multiple monikers: Killer DJs when working with Big Zen, and ANF when working with Priori. As I was researching him, I found his nice interview from the Montreal-based magazine Never Apart. The format of their series of articles is pretty cool, going by the name of “Six Picks”, Never Apart asks one artist to pick 6 tracks and explain why they are significant to them. It’s crazy because from listening to his picks, tracks like Untitled make a lot more sense to me, I can definitely visualize better how he came to such sounds.
My pick of the day is my favorite from his own picks, the one from Pilgrims of the Mind called Good Morning Angel. True downtempo marvel, this is a 5am track, as the sun goes up on a tireless crowd, to make you float around like sun dust as the first ray of lights shine through the trees. Timeless track, relevant then; relevant now, relevant forever. There sure must have been quite some pilgrimage inside the ramified depths of the souls of many ravers.
Good morning angel… peace out.
