Founded in 2014, New York label Youngbloods has defined a throughline of smokey experimentation spanning releases from avant-jazz duo Annabel (lee), psychedelic rapper lojii, and classical ambient group Sontag Shogun. They've also introduced a compilation series in which artists contribute works focused on measured themes they call "forms." Following editions sewn together for shadows and echoes, this third collection explores night music, inviting musicians in the Youngbloods roster and beyond to "find their voice between ambient and folk stylings to capture the ethereal, macabre panorama of lullabies."
