Midnight Gems -Your Free Mix-Tape Show - E 51 "Taking A Slow Trip For Once"
I found out that these guys and girls still make amazing music, I loved their stuff in 1993 as I mentioned in my #TTT but they still make the same magical music.
October Project - This Is For You - The Ghost of Childhood
That song is recent but it is an instant classic making me dream back o
Clannad - Theme from Harry's Game
I hate doing this, this is so unprofessional but this is my favorite Clannad song. A song that opens the doors to other lifetimes and this version, this setting, these acoustics, this is beyond goosebumps.
Clannad - I Will Find You
No clue who they are, but Velvet Priests sounds funky and I love that voice and the simplicity of that sound... Massive Attack 2.0?
Macias & The Velvet Priests - Succubus (Tiny Desk 2024)
One of the comments said holy shit, and I agree if shit could be holy I guess this is what it would sound like and still I have that Massive Portishead Bristol Sound vibe here, loving this trip already.
CØNTRA - Eivør's Tale
Let me go back a little to that Orchestral theme, but take it to a little more modern times. This song is so well done, so chill and yet so funky. Tripping Saxophones and that voice.
Ghost Funk Orchestra - Again
Six days out and I am in love and not just because I have a weakness for school uniforms. This is like K´s Choice is back and has grown some balls is this produced by Jack White or his Alien Clone?
Zinnia's Garden - I Want to Believe
And now for something a little less heavy, a little less intense just so the next song will hit the spot and I like the scream at 04:03.
Wet Leg - Ur Mum
If you have a clown of the streets called Lil DIcky. I guess it´s the Joker feeling that makes me want to see him pull out the big guns. The realest ten seconds are perfect....
Now if you think around 06:00 this is not going anywhere take a break and fast forward to 07:10 and let it play this is just lovely non-standard like a lil Dick should be. I would love to hear some takes on this Dick Dude.
Lil Dicky - HAHAHA I LOVE MYSELF

Riddle Me This
Guess What, my riddle has been solved. You are too late to make an easy dollar, better luck next time! Oh No Wait.... No More Ecency Dollars...so How Am I Gonna Reward Y´ALl?????
What the fluff is Midnight Gems?
Somewhere lost in time, trying to escape out of the rabbit hole back into the rat race there is a vacuum..... that´s the place where midnight gems are found.
My Midnight Gems will try to uncover & recover those beautiful songs that nobody ever noticed or might have been forgotten.
Who the fluff am I?
Being a former DJ playing about everything and having an uncompleted study of radio journalism. I have been wanting to do this for years...Thought about it many nights and guess now it´s time to finally take it to the streets.
Hope you enjoyed this well-known wave of fantastic music and that you still feel like joining me on the next Midnight Gems Session coming soon.

Nice. I do like a bit of Clannad.
I prefer The October Project but s playlist with just those two does inspire my writing on a Sunday morning 🌄 at least that's what I have planned if life doesn't happen... again
You ever heard of Weyes Blood? That's who I have been listening to today. Pretty interesting stuff.
I do know and I already found that I like Twin Flame. But like the last dinner got Abba she´s got a Beatles like vibe sometimes or is that just my tired mind. But good stuff indeed thanks!
Lol... I couldn't help laughing as I read through. Holy shit😂😂. Yeah, I get it.
These songs are a gem.
Yeah some holy shit songs there indeed I am still amazed how I got from Clannad to lil dicky in 8 songs without making it feel like a mess !LOLZ

Ghost funk orchestra was cool. Although lil dicky really got me. I fell in love with lil dicky after his collaboration with Chris brown- freaky Friday and Since then, I couldn't just help but accept every single song he dropped 😢
Well it was a very eclectic set from going from Clannad to lil Dicky, but there is something to that guy indeed I have seen him around but never really listened till last week and I was not disappointed tbh. Thanks for leaving some feedback that's awesome as I never have a clue how others perceive my lil set list !PIZZA

@whywhy(1/5) tipped @chuksmeezy
Oh, I could see why this song "This Is For You" was a trip down memory lane, it was just like when you realize your favorite childhood toy is still in the attic, but it's even better now.
Well, I too said, "Holy shot", when I listened to Succubus but like @chuksmeezy, I did think Ghost Funk orchestra was cool. Great pick for today's gems.
Glad our minds resonated on this one 💯
Yeah yeah 😊
