Chloe March – Old tree, mon coeur (from the Under the day EP, Hidden Shoal)

And speaking of winter music...something about this dreamy beauty makes me think of the kind of swirly feeling that comes at the end of the year (often brought on hot whiskey).

It’s a song inspired by the oldest tree in Kew Gardens. The combination of harpsichord-alike arpeggios, a thick ambient fog and March’s marvellous drifting vocal creates a suitably ageless effect.

A stunning evocation of the vastness of the universe and the microscopic human heartbeat running through it.
