We have a collection of songs for both hemispheres this week - sounds that float between the worlds of avant-folk, ambient meditations and settling guitar atmospherics to mark both the end of autumn locally and the tempering of spring for our friends in the northern latitudes, offering thoughtful and gentle creations to embrace the concurrent seasonal transition.
