Brian Pyle, better known as Ensemble Economique, is one busy guy. His new album Crossing The Pass, By Torchlight just came out on Dekorder, he has a wonderful new video for ‘Everything I Have, I Give to You’ (watch it here), plus there are already some new songs up on his Soundcloud. Last but not least – he made a beautiful mix for us.
Instead of trying to demonstrate how eclectic his musical tastes are, Pyle gives us a pretty balanced mix entirely made up of contemporary music, with the exception of Cocteau Twins. But you can’t make such a dreamy mix without Cocteau Twins, now can you? With some Swedish pop and some recent favorites such as Maria Minerva and Clams Casino thrown in for good measure, this makes for a perfect mix for the winter holiday season. Also, I thought I was crazy when I heard James from Twin Peaks singing that song of his, but it turns out it was sampled in the Foxes in Fiction remix of Raw Moans’ song. Hah! Mix economique:
