Listen "Jon Hopkins' songs that transcend"
Episode Synopsis
It’s the finale of Take 5 for 2022 and honestly, I couldn’t think of a more perfect guest to see us into the summer break.Jon Hopkins has been one of my favourite artists for many years. His music has soundtracked the highs and lows of my life, it’s kept me grounded when I needed it most and it’s helped my transcend when life has boxed me in.Whether crafting beats, or composing music for psychedelic therapy, Jon makes everything feel lighter, everything connected – which is why he’s seeing us out of 2022.I asked him to share the five songs that transcend for him, and he brought in some beautiful pieces of music… songs that were a revelation to me and, I hope, are for you as well.Nana Adjoa – Throw Stones [Mattheis Remix]Fort Romeau – Heaven & EarthElkka – Harmonic FrequenciesNosaj Thing – Blue Hour [Ft. Julianna Barwick]Vagabon – Home Soon
