Once upon a time while wandering through ethereal realms of ambient music landscape, I encountered a label that embodies the essence of what I seek to share through my mixes: Echoes in the Valley. This label with its deep commitment to releasing music that blends ambient with the natural world, has always been a source of exquisite music that was featured on this podcast. I was also fortunate to discover several of my now favorite ambient artists through this label.

Despite featuring music from outside their catalog, this mix is an invitation to explore the serene and sublime music that Echoes in the Valley curates so thoughtfully. My hope is that this dedication will not only honor the label's contributions to the ambient genre but also serve as a bridge for you to discover the depth and beauty of their releases, compilations and playlists.

Check out Echoes in the Valley wherever you get your music. Their Spotify playlists are gems galore!

Making this mix was a labor of love. If you feel like supporting Calm Pills online radio & podcast or showing your appreciation, buy me a cup of a coffee ☕. You can also share this with your friends, rate it or leave a review on Apple Podcasts or wherever you subscribed to this. Thank you.

Also, did you know that I have another podcast called Chill Pills. It features the same quality of mixing craftmanship but focuses on more genres of downtempo music spanning chillout, lofi chill hop and lounge.

In my series of mixes dedicated to phenomenal artists that continue to inspire this podcast, I present to you Hong Kong-based producer Ben Tatlow, the man behind Antarctic Wastelands project.

Drawing inspiration from an imaginary beautiful and desolate environment, Tatlow's ambient compositions, aptly taglined as “soundtracks for wandering souls”, are characterized by luminous textures and depths that immerse you in a realm where tranquility intertwines with profound sense of introspection and awe.

With his two featured tracks in this mix as source of inspiration, I strove to seamlessly fuse soundscapes that transport you to abandoned, weather-beaten landscapes. Wander with me on this sonic journey. Let’s embrace both the vastness of space and the intimacy of solitude.

Check out Antarctic Wastelands wherever you get your music. You’ll be in for a treat!

"The wounds of time, the departure of loved ones,
The tightly held hands gradually loosen.
Countless planets in the universe, like dreams,
Once ablaze in the sky, illuminating you.

With a smile and a wave, we embrace departure,
Having shared happiness and bliss.
Origins and endings, holding and letting go,
No longer gazing with guilt and remorse.

Countless planets in the vast universe,
Together, we shine in the heavens.
Falling without regret, loving bravely,
Our radiance never ceases, moving forward."
