Apologies if the various mechanics and metadata for the podcast aren’t quite right. This is our first time, and we’re still figuring out how all of this works. You will hopefully be able to find the podcast in the iTunes Music Store soon.

    Hi Jason,

    Please let us know what you think. It’s our first go around, things are a bit rough.

    Thanks for reading.

    Very nice – really enjoyed it. Especially the first track.

    You might be interested in the podcast over on Resident Advisor (http://www.residentadvisor.net) which often plays some excellent Ambient tracks. In fact, their first one of the year is mixed by The Orb.

    Looking forward to many more Ambient Music Blog podcasts.

    Nice! One request, esp. if there are a lot of tracks: put the starting time for each on the playlist.

    thanks a lot for putting this together! as a fellow occasional podcaster, i know how difficult it is to get such a thing off the ground..
    thanks especially for taking the extra time to do the ‘enhanced’ features. great track selection and great mixing. i loved all of it! i’m definitely going to grab these tracks/albums on emusic. it really makes a difference to HEAR the tracks, rather than just read about them.
    looking forward to hearing more!

    Hi Travis, thanks so much. I’m glad you like the enhanced version. The stats definitely indicate people prefer the straight .mp3, but I’m going to continue doing both for now.

    Came across this podcast searching for Library Tapes. I love your choosing “bluelight” as a podcast theme. Well done!!

    Stumbled across this podcast looking for white noise/bus & city noise erasers, and I really like this mix a lot, especially the 2nd and 3rd tracks – they go great together. I would never have found you if not for the podcast, so your hard work and branching out has garnered you at least one new fan.

    Look forward to digging into the archives.
