The nocturnal tunes thread

Here in the UK we’re entering that liminal time where the days are getting shorter and it’s got me in the mood for music that complements the long, dark nights. Imo electronic music is absolutely the best nocturnal music. I’m not sure exactly how to pin down what makes a track sound nocturnal but it’s got to be something you’d play at 2am on an empty highway. Maybe something with a bit of space, perhaps enveloping or bleak or hypnotic or a bit out there, there’s just a certain feel that sits right with the late night. Anything is welcome - a track you like, a track you wrote - post it! Here are some tunes to start.

Interseting that Daphné Oram. It’s now on my wishlist.

Here’s a few suggestions :
Jan Johansson : Jazz på svenska
BJ Nilsen : The Short Night

Great track! GYBE is an amazing group! I saw them about 20 years ago in Detroit. The memory of the show still moves me.
