Nourished By Time is the alias of Baltimore-bred, London-based musician Marcus Brown. Last year he released the breakthrough album Erotic Probiotic 2, an addictive record that put his unique intersection of DIY outsider soul-pop and kinetic alternative R&B on full display. Now signed to renowned UK label XL Recordings, his latest EP Catching Chickens came out this past March and further solidified his singular sound.

For his exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World, Nourished By Time reveals the eclectic, funky, and surprising sounds that have inspired his own genre-blurring sound, featuring choice cuts from Arthur Russell, Prince, Joy Division, Röyksopp, Ennio Morricone, The Beach Boys, P.M. Dawn, Astrid Sonne, and more.
