Interludes After Midnight

Blockhead

A bleary descent into NYC after-hours. Dense sample collages evoke dollar cabs, cheap pizza, and the specific loneliness of a city that never sleeps.

Find on Amazon

It's the ultimate soundtrack for when you're the only person awake in the city.

A bleary, cinematic descent into the quiet, slightly surreal hours of the early morning.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the percussion on track 4 mimics the rhythmic throb of a headache before resolving into a soulful groove.
The sudden shift into a brighter, nostalgic synth melody halfway through Meet You at Tower Records.
The haunting vocal delivery from Baby Dayliner on Beyond Reach that cuts through the dense instrumental fog.
