Big Sonic Heaven for the rest of us...

"This album is hauntingly intimate and deeply personal. It is mellow and swirling and evokes deep feeling. The artists on this album are not so well known, but I have found have a rabid fan base for those who know them. Many of them are familiar in the Detroit music circles, especially from a radio show that played for about 6 years on one of the more popular radio stations there. The show was Big Sonic Heaven and it showcased Dreampop, Triphop, Electronica, Brit pop and singer-songwriters and was the best part of many listeners' Sunday nights. This album continues that legacy and brings new artists into the mix as well. The album is great late night listening, background music or something to simply sit around and lounge with a cup of tea while the music swirls around you, enveloping you in etheral aural bliss."
