oleamide

sleeping with angels

00:00 / 01:54

how long, i wonder

could this thing possibly last?

I have trouble falling asleep a lot. I arranged this tape in part to express that.

Oleamide is a chemical that build up in your body as a result of sleep deprivation. It's the biological equivalent of your mom telling you to go to sleep. It's a weird little thing.

Samples used in this tape include:

"A Foggy Day in London Town", as performed by Frank Sinatra

"7 PM", from Animal Crossing: Wild World

"Dulcissime" and "In truitina", as performed by Lucia Popp

"Teach Me Tonight", as performed by Kevin Mahogany
