Inspired by our podcast series, Alastair Kelly puts together a mix outlining his daily headphone commute via Ryde Pier, on the Isle of Wight, UK. This aural journey recreates the feel of a “long walk out onto the sea, beautiful scenery, and lots of wildlife.” Skim the playlist and you should be excited for this brisk walk as well! Here’s more from Kelly:
In keeping with the ethos of HC, this is a deeply personal and introspective mix. Some artists featured have travelled to and from work with me for many years now, others (such as my favourite discovery of 2012 – The Boats) are relatively new to me. My own commute takes me out over the water, walking the length of one of the longest piers in the UK. This is a deep, shimmering and at times piercing dip into modern classical and experimental music, one that I know you’ll enjoy… Dedicated to my beautiful wife & daughter who show endless patience with my music obsession. Happy listening!
Please enjoy responsibly and support the featured artists!
