"Chronic Dreams" is the first album by producer Victor Stone. Mixing
tracks from earlier recording sessions, samples from the Magnatune
catalogue and newly recorded material by Victor and several other
Magnatune recording artists, he has created an album of music that has
been called 'groove soaked ambient chill.'
Combining his training in classical and jazz with a passion for North
American and British popular music Victor creates a mood reminiscent of
modern producers such as DJ Food and DJ Krush. As with those producers,
his approach is 'source agnostic' culling sounds wherever they may come
from, recording new material as needed to fit the ambience of the
project.
Four Stones' previous album on Magnatune was the Magnatune
Remixed project.
"Don't belong. Never join. Think for yourself. Peace."
What follows is a track by track listing of the songs on "Chronic
