AURORA on 1002 RADIO returns this week!
Sunday morning, August 24 ☀️ 9E / 8C / 7M / 6P
twitch.tv/1002radio

Join me this Sunday morning, and wake up to some relaxing music on the second edition of AURORA! This will now be a 2-hour show (instead of 4), and start one hour later than the previous show. I feel this will work better in everyone's respective time zones. I'll be mixing songs live and saying hello in chat, but not yappin on the microphone 🤐

This week's show features artists such as Tangerine Dream, Steve Roach, Brian Eno, Pieter Nooten, Jeff Pearce, Peter Gabriel.. and more! The first AURORA mixed in some rhythmic 'chillout' tracks, but this week's edition will be a little more on the 'dreamy' side. I will change things up to keep it fresh, but the beats will be back!
This livestream will be exclusively on Twitch, but the recording will be uploaded to Mixcloud later on Sunday. See you then 🎹

Thank so much to everyone that listened this morning and said hello in chat, I appreciate the turnout and the support. I hope you enjoyed this special 4-hour livestream of ambient, chillout, and synth soundscapes, with a little 'alternative influence' mixed in.

Twitch had a glitch early in the final hour, and restarted the stream. It may have kicked out some folks or indicated that the stream ended. Apologies if that happened to you! Mixcloud captured the whole stream without any errors, thankfully.

If you ever need some chill music to start your day (or need help sleeping at night), give this a spin, I think you'll like it. The playlist is below, and I split it into 5 song blocks for ease of reading. Mr. DJ decided not to interrupt the music this time, and probably had groggy morning voice anyway..
