Neurosis vocalist and guitarist Steve Von Till has posted what he dubs SVT Mixtape 2 Ambient Mindfulness. Von Till adds that he threw his own projects Harvestman and Tribes of Neurot in to the mix as well, as he should. They're damn good.
"Here’s another mixtape for you. These are quiet, somber pieces that I have listened to more times than I can count while traveling on planes, tour buses or just trying to find some sleep. I have probably logged more hours with Brian Eno and Stars of the Lid than any other albums I own by having them on loop playback for entire journeys at a time. Many of these are also on frequent rotation in my classroom in order to try and create a relaxed thoughtful atmosphere. Occasionally we’ll be in the middle of a lesson and “New Animals from the Air” by Eluvium will come on, we stop, take a moment to appreciate the sound before returning to work. I also snuck a little Harvestman and Tribes of Neurot in there for good measure. We are all on a journey into the unknown right now and I hope these gentle sounds may bring you some peace and rest."
