W. David Oliphant

<p>By way of the kindness of Steven Howard I was asked by Joseph Aleo for an ambient mix. To be honest this asking for a mix is a first for me. I haven’t made mixes of others music since the 80’s, not for lack of interest but too little time outside of daily life which was myopically spent creating my own sounds... </p> <p>Joseph has graciously let me make a mix of my own work for this. I gathered up a journey of sounds that focused on small textures rather than heavy drones. I was hoping to make something mysterious, ‘light’ and somehow hopeful sounding given the reason for this mix is due to our current pandemic situations. It has been a pleasure using my work as building blocks and making everything unique for this mix.</p> <ol> <li>The Big Dipper “Excerpt”</li> <li><a href="https://ragdun.bandcamp.com/album/frozen-words" title="Rag Dun"> Rag Dun </a> “You were in a distant place where voices are kept In boxes of ice, each word frozen”</li> <li><a href="https://wdavidoliphant.bandcamp.com/album/oggend-klink-drie" title="​W.
