Nils Feldhus is one the most productive and talented fellow mix producers that I know. He hosts two shows on Proton and Frisky Radio and have been curating ambient and atmospheric electronic music mixes under Helioscope and Planetarium brands since 2011 (right around the same time I started making mixes under the DJ Seroton pseudonym).

I'm especially a fan of his Planetarium selections, which share a lot of the same ambient feel as my Calm Pills (and previously Drifter) mixes. I approached him and he was happy to have me guest mix on his show. I think this turned out to be one of the best ones I've created and I hope you like it too.

I would also like to dedicate this mix to my friend Alaeddin Naasani. I've known him since college and I was surprised that the day I silently put a "tip me" link on my website (for fans of the show who want to show their support and appreciation), he was the first to do so with a generous amount that I proceeded to use to buy the songs featured on this episode. Thanks Alaeddin!


Also, did you know that I have another podcast called Chill Pills. It features the same quality of mixing craftmanship but focuses on more genres of downtempo music spanning chillout, lofi chill hop and lounge.

Sometimes the world is just too loud.

Created by Uplifting Pills, each episode is a seamless, multi-artist album designed to dissolve tension without demanding your attention. You'll find long-form compositions blending gentle, instrumental ambient pads with the organic textures of natural soundscapes and the soft, resonant notes of piano melodies. This isn't about a catchy tune to follow, but about providing a supportive sonic environment. Whether you're seeking a background for focused reading, a tool for your meditation practice, a gentle aid for slipping into deep sleep, or simply a few minutes to unwind a busy mind, this podcast serves as an auditory retreat. The mixes flow without interruption, allowing you to fully relax and let the carefully layered sounds ease the stress from both body and thoughts. Tune in, press play, and let the noise of the day fade into the background.
