A few of those I smashed together into some pleasing drone zones, creating new "Heraclitus Akimbo" mixes of tracks from JM Charcot and Mushrooms in Shampoo that I set aside in a special folder of noteworthy drones.

Add in a piece from one of Paul's albums and there's now a little ILF corner in my latest drone mix, over at mixcloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/Mechanical_Forest_Sound/drone-brunch-15/

Also tracks from Charlemagne Palestine, Experimental Audio Research, some peeps from my musical neighbourhood and (of course!) a music cue from an 80's BBC cop show. In case you dig any of that sort of thing.

Currently listening while having lunch (not brunch :( ) and enjoying it a lot, particularly the track with the kids talking etc around the 12th minute or so.

Ecumenically acceptable for all meals! (The mixtapes are called that 'cause I helped put together an actual drone brunch event once, and the first few were made from the playlists I made for that.)

I believe that piece was the Charlemagne Palestine track... I liked to think when I was listening to it that the animal noises were his stuffed animals coming to life.
