Low Light Mixes: quiet fusion 2026

A little over a year ago I posted a mix of quiet fusion jazz tunes which I really enjoyed curating. So it was only a matter of time before I made another and here it is. This mix has some of the same artists as the first one – Mile Davis, Soft Machine, Gong, Jean-Luc Ponty, and Brand X, along with new additions Not surprisingly, most of the tracks are from the 1970s, a few from the 80s and one new track by Elephant9 released in 2024.

Here’s the first quiet fusion mix – https://www.mixcloud.com/lowlight/quiet-fusion/

I still plan on doing a straightforward fusion mix but for now this quiet set will do nicely. It’s perfect early morning coffee music.

Cheers!
