The Chillout Lounge Mix - Balearic Picnic

Live mix from the Balearic Picnic in Farnham U.K. Huge thanks to my musical partner in crime Alister Luckett and Justin Mackie for organising and inviting me again to this superb event. A lovely daytime vibe in the park with nice people, there are a couple more dates coming monthly including superb guest DJs Steve Optix (15th July) and Joe Flanagan (19th Aug). I also want to say a huge thank you to Zoe Lyons for coming to the event, it was super nice to play for you.

Reid Willis, Sediment, A carefully arranged collection of disparate movements, joined and made whole by tendinous themes of birth, erosion, decay and triumphant renewal. Following Mother Of, Reid Willis’s previous album released on Mesh, Sediment is a painstakingly crafted collection of songs propelled by fundamental notions of rebirth and reinvention. The delicate melding of seemingly disparate sounds echoes the natural phenomena of changing states–of decaying and eroding matter that over time is not lost, but pulverised and transformed into something new. Blissful laidback sounds from Gelka always, the collaboration with Forteba works beautifully always, Hiraeth is a super chiller. Straight from the R&S Records vaults, Capricorn’s seminal 1993 track 20Hz has been reimagined by a selection of today’s most forward-thinking electronic producers. Since its release in 1993 on R&S’ sub label Global Cuts, Capricorn has made its stake as an all time classic, still sounding fresh in today’s sonic landscape with intricate rhythmic work, pulsating basslines, and soaring pads. Today, 20Hz continues to push the boundaries of electronic music, forging a backbone for many modern productions. Andert Tysma version, presents listeners with an intricate sound bath of blissful ambience and floating keys, stunning. Following the release of his third studio album Stellar Drifting last year, today George FitzGerald announces a brand-new spellbinding EP, Not As I, via Domino’s imprint label, Double Six. Venera, showcases an immersive and dynamic sonic journey that transports the listener to otherworldly realms. Described by George as "music that occupies a liminal space between club and home listening. The Truth / The Fall is the new double A-side from Brighton-based artist Braxton, marking the producer's fifth Anjunadeep label release. The Truth, a collaboration with rising Bostonian duo Warung, first premiered on Anjunadeep 14, and combines a simple, yet effective, melody with a catchy hook and weighty breakbeat. Berlin-based producer Paul Baule to the fold with his debut label release, Zillion EP, a masterclass in delicately-produced electronica that makes for an emotive listening experience, out on Anjunadeep. Blindsmyth's All The Fiberglass album has been a revelation in the electronic music scene, and Refiberd, Vol. 3 + 4 serves as a fitting conclusion to this sonic odyssey. The remixes featured in this release are a testament to the creative prowess of the artists involved, as they push the boundaries of electronic music and deliver a listening experience like no other. Following her signing to One Little Independent Records, London-based multidisciplinary artist and producer Laura Misch has announced the release of her long-awaited debut album Sample The Sky. An enchanting journey through London’s wild edgelands, the LP is an ode care, connection and listening to the natural world. Sample The Sky responds to nature’s patterns through organic electronic productions, embodied lyrics, wind inspired saxophone, singing and synthesis all woven into intricately crafted left-field pop songs. Tal Fussman resurfaces on his dedicated imprint Survival Tactics with his longed-for debut album, The Fine Line in Between. The Chamber (Outro) has a stunning build and flow with deep emotion. ANNA’s debut ambient electronic album Intentions, out on Mercury KX is a unique encounter where ANNA’s spiritual and electronic music side’s become one. To be experienced as a journey for healing and growth and Recorded at ANNA’s own Anaweh Studio, the album is a melodic and expansive soundscape merging with sound healing techniques, dance-leaning beats, binaural beats and ANNA on flute and synth, channelling her emotions.
