Compilation: Midnight Martinis

By Chris on August 12th, 2007 | Comments

midnight martinis version 2 520x520 Midnight Martinis

It is still summer, and still warm so why not cool off with some refreshing Martinis with your loved one? This compilation is the perfect mood setter for anyone enjoying a Martini late at night, gazing out on the quiet streets from your penthouse apartment while a soft breeze blows through the open window. The theme of it is soft dreamy strings, echoing trumpets, haunting choirs and kisses in the dark. Been working on this compilation for quite a while, but couldn't find the right mood for it so it took a while longer than expected to get it done, hope it's been worth the wait. Comments are as always more than welcome. All that is left now is to download it, fix your self a Martini and dream away...

The cover for the compilation was updated in April, 2009

    Du kan nå mig på ollimojo-hotmail.com. baren där jag håller klubben är på möllevångstorget, www.metropamollan.se. kommer att hållas en gång i månaden ett bra tag framåt. vore även väldigt kul om du ville hjälpa till o göra affischer, dina omslag e ju underbara.
  • Tack för erbjudandet Olli! Tyvärr är jag inte i Malmö så ofta, men det låter ju kul. Har ingen MySpace så jag kan inte höra av mig där, tänkte kanske att du läser det här istället? Hur hör jag av mig om jag är i Malmö och har lust att hitta till klubben?
  • olli
    Tack för dina fina skivor. Nu den 20:de sept. startar jag en ny klubb på metro i malmö, "The Space Age Cocktail Lounge", affischen ser du på min myspace, kom förbi, eller kanske komma som gäst dj nån gång ?? Ha det bäst, Olli(www.myspace.com/nihilnihilmagiccircus )

    This particular collection is one that I've turned others onto and Chris, I wish you could see all of their responses! This may be your best one yet! And that like saying it's excellent excellence. How do we find words that go above and beyond. Thanks for blowing our minds.

    I just wanted to tell you thank you so much for putting all of these compilations together for us and letting us take part in this wonderful time capsule that you have created. I am a lover of anything and everything from the Post-War era, and although I am somewhat young, I feel as though some part of me belongs to this time. Thank you so much for creating this blog! XOXO

    Great CD. I'm listening to it now. These are some really wonderful songs. I can defintely see listening to them with a cigar and a cocktail. You did a wonderful job.

    This is simply excellent. I can tell you put a lot of thought and work and time into it. Great selection of music -- familar enough to be comfortable, but quirky enough to keep things interesting. Your efforts are greatly appreciated!

    great job!
    i loved it!
  • Yes I use Photoshop to create my covers. But you don't need to go that far, any image software will work as long as you are happy with the result.

    I love your music posts. Thank you.
  • Lee
    Chris, don't laugh too much if this is a dumb question. What software (e.g. Photoshop) do you use to create your album covers?

  • Thank you for your swell comments! It is really nice knowing that the people who download my work appreciate the hours I have put into it!

    Anonymous, you are right about the apostrophe. Can't believe I missed that on the cover, oh well my bad! Thank you for pointing it out though.
  • jomy
    Best mix so far! Kudos!
  • Anonymous
    Another great compilation.

    But the cover should say "Midnight Martinis" and not "Midnight Matrini's"

    the apostrophe-s signifies a possesive use while just an s at the end signifies a plural (For example: Eirk's dogs - where Erik is possesive and dogs is plural)

    So much for the grammar lesson ... now back to the listening!
  • THXjay
    This is another great compilation.
    Your Space Age Lounge trilogy is my most listened to set of discs, this is a nice add-on to that collection.

    When can we expect volume 4 ?

    Love all your compilations and always look forward to getting the next one.

    Thanks for all your hard work on these.

    Det här ser ju urläckert ut! Nu skall jag bara ladda ner drinken och njuta. Eftersom jag har njutit stort av dina andra samlingar vet jag redan nu att det här är top class.

    Kärlek!
