there's something about over-compartmentalizing electronic music that i'm endlessly attached to, yet naturally reject. chillstep just sounds like a cop-out to me. seems like artists keep conjuring up new names for things that can be described more in depth using current terms. maybe i'd say something closer to acoustic indie ambient trance...
but call me old fashioned.

(backwards in the video title. idiots.)
was one of my top travel jams when i was backpacking, and whenever i was by the sea it kept me feeling like i never actually moved. lovely to see it revisited with a couple rimshots and a bit of ambient echo. his voice can really do anything.
while we're discussing chill indie vibes one can't ignore this gem.
go make some toast and enjoy something slightly uptempo.
good morning
