Adult Swim Wants to Stuff Your Stocking With Relaxation This Holiday — wired.com

If you love ambient and almost-ambient music, then you know the name Ghostly International. For 15 years now, the label has attracted some of the most talented—and subtle—artists out there. Even if you didn’t think you knew Ghostly, if you’ve ever listened to Com Truise or Gold Panda, played Hohokum, or even bought certain pairs of Warby Parkers, you’re already familiar. Now, Ghostly is reuniting with Adult Swim, America’s favorite basic cable channel/ongoing piece of performance art, to release a free album (their first collaboration came out in 2008). Featuring new tracks from some of their strongest signees of the past 15 years, Ghostly Swim 2 is going to be, at the very least, a relaxing record to put on over the holidays.
