Pronoia
Here’s my latest mix, “Pronoia,” which has elements of psychedelic dub, tribal, crunk, and glitch, all mixed together with icaros from Peru and an assortment of media samples. It starts off quite gently, and then shifts into different dimensions.
Pronoia, the opposite of paranoia, refers to the awareness that the universe is constantly conspiring to make us flourish. [A helpful thing to remember, particularly when times get tough.]
Here’s the track List:
00:00:00 – 00:01:38 01) Donovan “There Is A Mountain” (remixed by Shalom)

And here’s one of my pieces, called “Nimita,” which I think works well as the album art:
You’re welcome to download the whole mix, using the button on the right of the player. If you like any of these tracks, I suggest supporting the artists and buying their CDs or downloading their work from iTunes, Beatport, or your favorite legal download service.


Like it Shalom.. Can soundcloud add links to the original tracks. it’d be helpful to be able to clickthru like blip or lastfm?
and have you though of combining the mix with images?
Thanks, David. I’m new to Soundcloud, so I’m not aware of its full feature-set, but I haven’t seen this capability.
As for combining images with the mix, my “Nimita” image, above, is my best offering for now. Creating moving images that respond to the music would be a dream, but I don’t have the bandwidth to do that at this point. I find that the iTunes 9 visualizer does a good job with the task.
