Silent Days, Plutonian Nights (for Ben)

My good friend Ben M had a milestone birthday back in January and I dragged my feet getting some presents to him. Eventually I did and our mutual love of music, both challenging, sweet and obscure that has strengthened our bond over the years is represented here.

This mix gave me the utmost pleasure in putting it together and now you too can enjoy it.
