Promises
by Floating Points, Pharoah Sanders & The London Symphony Orchestrasupported by 24 fans who also own “Freight Train”
Just the kind of gentle soundtrack I need when I am doing simple repetitive manual tasks. Impossible to decide on a favourite track because they are all wonderful.

Every once in awhile you come across music so good it's timeless. And that once in awhile is like finding a 13th floor in a hotel. I'd gladly book room 25.

Everywhere at the end of time
by The Caretakersupported by 21 fans who also own “Freight Train”
A singular, harrowing experience. If this album doesn't give you a newfound appreciation of life, specifically the ability to remember it, then I don't know what will.

Cult Classic album of huge proportion. It calls out to people of any town and especially those that are disenfranchised by the larger populous. Noname speaks the hard word softly and delicately, a stand-out poet among millions.
