Sleeping at Last

(see Riga highlights below) 

Those who have heard of my sleeping habits issues this semester might think that with that title (^) I'm starting to get over them. FYI that's false, but Sleeping at Last is the moniker of Ryan O'Neal, this great guy based in Chicago who has just so happened to write, wait for it, the soundtrack of my year.

His latest installment just came out. See, this guy does not just make an album and let it go. He picks a theme - for this year it's "Atlas" - and goes from there. Space 1, Space 2, Light, Darkness, and Land have been on repeat for the past couple of weeks and it just doesn't get old. O'Neal blends so many different lines and words and sounds together that each time you listen, the meaning is new.

Introducing "Oceans" over on Relevant. It's a sort of pre-release. Take a listen. Yes, it's instrumental. If you want words, check out Space 1/2, Light, Darkness or Land.
