Huh! This one was admittedly a touch different for me—a departure of sorts from the style of your ‘usual’ offerings. And that’s a fine thing, here.
The manner in which the prominent, propulsive musical percussion and sounds were brought forward in the mix, and the way that it all was seemingly 3D-sound-imaged, served as an ideal focal point…as a persistent (and thus helpful) object of meditation.
In sum, your production and pacing helped to drown out the monkey-mind chatter that appears noticeably ramped up at this particular time of the year—at least, in our country. And, at least in •my• comparatively energetic mind.
So, thank you for mixing it up, CF, and for being relatively “adventurous” here. Your guidance is so regularly, richly rewarding, no matter the format.
