The bottle’s half empty, the lamp is low; the world’s asleep, but you’re still here. No drama, no despair—just mulling over the shape of it all, how you got where you are, how it might pan out. Mixing torch songs and ballads with the bluesy side of jazz, these tracks capture that world-weary midnight mood, the sound of a heavy heart coming momentarily to rest. We regularly update these selections, so if you hear something you like—a sliver of light in that passing dark—add it to your library.
