Central piece in this mix is Christina Kubisch' "Tea Time (Autumn Leaves Mix)", from Gruenrecorder's "Autumn Leaves".

Male singers communicate their words as if they were birds, twittering words like "Who's awake?", "Me Too!" and "Who cooks for you?".
This spring-like chatter evokes a strange and hypnotic landscape sometimes unnerving, sometimes comforting.

A further walk in the same landscapes.
The tension may rise this time, but the view remains spectacular.

This mix is concluded by a Soccer Committee song that also gave it it's title. In her search for quietness, Mariska Baars has show that 'ambient' music does not necessarily involves 'electronics'. It's a state of mind...

True

"I have learned not to desire
But it's hard not to
when you've looked in these eyes
so peaceful and true"

Soccer Committee: "True"
