Mixtape #47 - The Magical Promise - Mixtape, Psych Folk, Freak Folk, Avantgarde, Americana, American Primitive - Blog

Road trips which include driving into the sunrise hold magical promise. (profp)

This mix took ages to setup - but I am happy to have finished. Maybe it's right in time if you leave for vacation and need some soundtrack for your night drives.

So feel inspired and guided by the wonderful organic ambient of Jüppala Kääpiö, Afghan psych pop by Ahmad Zahir and the famous Solla Solla psych funk piece by Ilaiyaraaja. Beautiful steelstring guitar music by Mark Fosson, Ryley Walker, Seabuckthorn and a new track by Daniel Bachman. And tons of other great stuff.

I hope you'll enjoy! Comments and suggestions are appreciated!
