about
Improvised by François Houle, basset clarinet, Douglas Schmidt, bandoneon, and John Oliver, on LYRA8 and MOOG synthesizers in one take on February 23, 2022. We did not know when improvising that the very next day Ukrainian citizens would be abandoning their homes and apartments to seek shelter in the subway system.

Compilation Vol. 2
by Mystery Circlessupported by 15 fans who also own “Crowd Life Underground”
Somehow this one seems more abstract than the previous MC comps, maybe relying more on textures, moods and space than, say, melody. There is melody, of course, sorry my thoughts aren't concise. In any event, with Mystery Circles you can always expect a finely curated selection of tracks that will have you adding to your favorite new artists to follow. No track here is over 4 minutes! Actually, the longest two tracks clock in at 3:39. Impressive.
