http://tmwk.com/lampshade/LFTLV.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download Live from the Library V is an oncoming storm. It begins with the oppressive atmosphere of a low pressure system rolling in as the sun sets, and never loses that low ceiling of melancholy. It takes a few tracks for the rhythm of the rainfall to take …

http://tmwk.com/lampshade/A+Very+Christmas.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download I’m a man who loves Christmas music. I’m also a hardline no-Christmas-until-after-Thanksgiving seasonal separator.

Over the years, I’ve amassed quite a collection, and I’ve become something of a connoisseur of …
http://tmwk.com/lampshade/Live-Library-One.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download As much as I love doing heavily plotted, extensively planned concept mixes, they take me a pretty long time to do.

http://tmwk.com/lampshade/Golden+Ghost+Forest.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download This started as a Halloween mix and transmogrified into more of a Fall-oween mix, it seems. It’s not so much spooky and ghosty (though there is that) as much as it is music for cold, windy nights, full of moonlight and magic. 1. Tim DeLaughter – Pink Trash Dream …

http://tmwk.com/lampshade/Scholastics-You_Have_Been_Our_Dwelling_Place.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download This is a mix designed around gospel house music. Although there’s a lot of the wonderful soulful vocal house sound that’s associated with that phrase, it draws from other traditions in house music as well, dipping into 90s deep house and bass-influenced house music. I tried to create …

http://tmwk.com/lampshade/shibuya_summer_1.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download This is something of a primer on that mid-90s Japanese melting pot sound, shibuya-kei.
