M4M008 - Sharon Robinson - Mini Feature

Music for Midnight #8 was a major milestone in the history of the podcast.  It features a custom introduction from Sharon Robinson, made specially for Music for Midnight.  This is one of the great luxuries of playing the music of independent musicians.  There is a true human connection between the artist and the fans; even when on those fans was a young podcaster.

Sharon Robinson crushes it with two amazing 'torch songs,' before handing over the spotlight to a mix of music that have been mainstays in my collection for nearly a decade.

M4M005 - Music for a Midnight Drive. Featuring Anji Bee, Moosefrog, The West Exit, Bitter Sweet, and more...

Take a midnight drive with me and enjoy one of the very best episodes of the entire run.

Originally Released on July 15, 2008.  There are very few episodes of Music for Midnight that worked as well as this.  The artists are some of the very best independent chill out bands of the late-2000s.  The songs are superb and memorable.  And the theme works effectively.  I wish every episode had turned out this well.
