Probably my favorite visual for a spooky mix. The shambled shack, the murder of crows, the blood-orange drenched sky, all through a panning old VHS camera. It hits all the right notes. You have great taste, Dated.
Reminds me of this story about a kid who was scolded by a teacher for drawing a red sky because "skies are blue!" Like bruh you been outside? They can have basically any color on the rainbow ^.^ Even green, although that's kinda rare.
this Dark Lofi is really just Trip-Hop. if ppl want more like this, listen to Sneaker Pimps, Portishead, Unkle, Tricky, Lamb, Groove Armada, Thievery Corporation, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Morcheeba, & probably the chief of all them, Massive Attack.
Sounds like something a guy living in a post apocalyptic samurai movie would listen too while he’s suiting up to go fight some demons and bandits past midnight. Good mix man
This is the same picture that I once encountered. I needed to go to the store on a moped through my small town. As soon as I left the gate, I noticed something strange: the skies turned red, and there were no clouds in them. The wind was blowing, dust was swirling under the wheels, and something like a tumbleweed was moving across the street, but there was not a single person on the street. It was as if I was in a post-apocalyptic world, alone with myself and my scooter, the speed of which allowed me to feel the pleasant wind on my face. The feeling as if something terrible was about to happen, but time stood still, giving you hope for the last pleasant sensations in this life. It was the end of August 2022.
This mix perfectly encapsulates the feeling of getting home before the sun sets in a multitude of video games because when you know that the sun sets, some spooky shit goes down. Awesome job!
Ill be out lurkin at night. I get stir crazy and get the drive to go out and do things. Empty streets and liminal spaces are where Im the most comfortable. Thanks for the music!
Found this at random...... I always get a sense of anxiety that spreads throughout my body when I'm out camping at sun-down, perhaps the atavistic fear of the dark or feeling that time continues to pass despite all my effort to stop it- it would be easier to watch the sun set, but then you live in darkness.
"I should start heading back now. It's getting dark." *Night falls* "I can't go outside now. They're out there." "It would be suicide to go out there now."
Am I the only one who would LOVE to see this channel take on the vibes of the Magnus Archives? I love the different entities from that podcast, and seeing how specific this channel is with its subgenres, I definitely think it'd be neat! I feel like "The Eye", "The Hunt", "The Web" or "The Corruption" would match nicely, and there's alot of great voice lines that could be used from the podcast, as well!
First song (endless corridor) gives me old LATE NIGHT adult swim vibes when they would play the more edgy animes. NOSTALGIA. Cozy, but gloomy. Or _Requiem From The Darkness_ intro.
is this really lo-fi? this sounds so much more complex and intricate. i guess i got too used to those simplified monotonous 10 hours mixes that this one here sounds like some majestic electronic masterpieces.
It took me awhile, but I believe you sampled War, "The World is a Ghetto" for the song, "Night War". That saxophone part is beautiful. "Wondering if I'll find happiness, better give it up now I guess". Great Job!
This is one of my favorite Dated mixes for a while now. I love most all of them, and love hearing all the reworking of classic Dark Jams, but this one is really fresh! Sounds like a lot of completely new work. And brilliant works at that. I appreciate how much time, inspiration and work that takes! To me, it's one of your best in a minute. Darkly Hypnotic. Shadowy Spooky. Devilishly Delicious!
The air is a starmap of glowing allure. The sweater of a hug not yet discerned. The rivers are edgy, motion the paint drop to an already colorful view. Make it what you do.
Just got my shipment of about 6 cassettes and my first copy of the dark door! Man do they go good together, just wanna say fantastic job with all the projects you do, may be submitting a story here soon!
this has the same vibe to me as the boondocks soundtrack, it's great and i didn't know there was a whole genre around this little niche of mine. love it
Absolutely love these mixes bro. It's been almost exclusively what I listen to from September to November since I found your stuff. Waiting for the next album!
6:52 is not actually creepy or anything. It just makes me think about two people running away from a place and reaching a sort of cliff, while watching the sun rising in relief. They know the darkness will be back but they are glad to see the sunlight shine
Dude fuck yeah to this mix. And fuck yeah for the psychotic RU-vid algorithm for bringing me here even though it's completely unrelated to anything else i watch lol
With every day, the night grows longer and the long eerie shadows stretching along the cracked pavement cast down from a toxic sunset reach deeper into my forlorn heart.
Love it thanks ❤ can't wait to listen to this again later today ... maybe AFTER sunset ... but then again: can't seem to be able to turn this off right now. Sunset is gripping me ... at midday
