Here's the cosmic driven remix for the awesome Toko Recordings and Si Brad!   Undo your seatbelts and drift into space!

https://tokorecordings.bandcamp.com/album/si-brad-feat-azeem-falling-down

"For their first new release in twenty years, Toko turn to the talents of their original 'in house' producer Si Brad, who calms and charms with the butter smooth Balearic soul of 'Falling Down'.
Featuring the rich vocals of Azeem, this sublime sundowner takes Curtom Horns on a Moon Safari, a nimble bassline chasing crunchy keys across the horizon before the sublime vocoder soul of the final third transports us from Sheffield to Shibuya. Slow burning, deep and meaningful, 'Falling Down' is your new summer soundtrack.
Balearic trailblazers Psychemagik take the controls for the B side, creating an atmospheric extension which is low slung and laid back but still dressed for dancing. Building a haunting riff into the main refrain, they lead us through nearly 12 minutes of floatation tank funk awash with heart-swelling strings and cascading keys. As the breaks and bass intensify, the track swells into a true end of night anthem for the horizontal dancers."

Falling Down

Si Brad  Featuring Azeem - Falling Down - Psychemagik Remix

Super Value 15 Get-Cha (LTJ Edits) sampler

Since launching in 2020, Claremont 56’s Claremont Editions series of compilations has delivered a trio of must-check collections featuring a mixture of unheard gems from the label vaults and brand-new, previously unreleased tracks. Label founder Paul ‘Mudd’ Murphy continues with this blueprint on 2024’s instalment, the fourth in total.

There's naturally some genuinely headline grabbing highlights amongst the nine tracks on display, starting with opener ‘Crossing’ – a fresh cut from C56’s in-house super-group Hillside (AKA Paul Mudd Murphy, Alex Searle and Patrick Dawes), featuring lead vocals from long-time friend of the family Quinn Lamont Luke. The track is prime Hillside: all rolling hand percussion, warming keys, simmering synth-strings, sun-splashed solos and blue-eyed soul vocals from the effervescent Quinn.

It sets a high bar, quality wise, but predictably the rest of the collection hits similarly heady heights. Mudd contributes two other tracks of note: a first collaborative outing with long-time creative partner Ben Smith for five years, Smith & Mudd’s ‘Journey Seven’ – a languid, slow-motion affair that hints at what we can expect from their forthcoming album – and a typically rich, jazz-fusion influenced solo excursion, ‘Massimo’s Steps’. As vivid, emotive and detailed as you’d expect, the track explores similar sonic territory to Mudd’s recent album, In The Garden of Mindfulness.

It's usual for Claremont Editions collections to include tracks from new members of the Claremont family. Editions 4 is no different, with Danish producer Fureby – a close friend of fellow Danes Mike Salta and Peter Visti – joining forces with Guy Moscoco and Brian Faber on ‘Halcyon (Extended Mix)’, a gorgeously kaleidoscopic Balearic groover rich in fluttering flute solos, simmering disco strings and sun-bright electronics.

Elsewhere, a few familiar favourites contribute suitably stellar tracks. Mai Fujinoya dons the Yamp Kolta alias for the first time since appearing on the first editions compilation in 2020, serving up the languid Japanese language Balearic pop brilliance of ‘Saturate’, featuring beautiful lead vocals by Yuzz. Krautrock-influenced duo Neumayer Station – who made their C56 bow on last year’s Editions collection – lay down a typically stretched-out, dubbed-out groove with Spaghetti Western soundtrack flourishes (the lilting and atmospheric ‘Bassrutscher’), while Ferdi Schuster invites us to dive into the immersive depths of ‘Resonance’ – a lightly art rock and progressive rock-influenced soundscape best enjoyed while lying flat on your back.

Slow-motion house specialists Hear & Now continue to join the dots between tactile Balearica and pitched-down Italian ambient house on the stunningly gorgeous ‘Chimaera’, while there’s a surprise return for a Claremont 56 favourite: Mudd’s sought-after extended mix of Bel’s 2018 single ‘Ready To Die’, a sing-along modern Balearic classic. This time round, it has been re-edited by Blank & Jones, who teases out the sun-soaked instrumentation before finally dropping the original’s emotion-rich lead vocals.

It all adds up to another must-check instalment of the indispensable Claremont Editions series. As usual, the vinyl version has been pressed in limited qualities and comes housed in a deluxe gatefold sleeve, complete with another stunning cover painting by illustrator Mark Warrington.

Visti’s Vinyl Collective offers wholesome brew of world, jazz, electronic and pop on debut album.
 
'Vol. 1' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

In his native soil of Denmark, Jonas Visti is best known for his radio show Visti’s Vinyls, in which he journeys time and space in search of interesting sounds – whether dusty afro-beat, Ethiopian jazz virtuosos or obscure 70’s Tropicalia.
 
His new project, Visti’s Vinyl Collective, extends the musical ethos of his radio program into a creative force of its own. Gathering some of the finest talent on the Danish jazz scene – and inviting a small selection of international guest features – Visti has crafted an album of manifold styles but a singular ethos: warm, positive, colorful music for a world that could use it.
 The album, Vol. 1, will be available on the Copenhagen-based imprint Music For Dreams on February 14th 2025.
 
The album is written and produced in collaboration with William Winding whose electronic influence can be heard on several tracks. Emma Sehested Høeg, Dawda Jobarteh and Markus Artved have also written music on the album.

Hell Yeah is back to extract another sublime single from Michele Mininni's Pop Archetypes album, with 'Vertigo' up next alongside a remix from label favourite and downtempo king Calm.

Italian leftfield wizard Mininni has released on the likes of R&S, Optimo Trax and Internasjonal, but on his debut album, he mixed up a new palette of broken beats, worldly rhythms, jazz, and live drums into a diverse and multicultural trip.

At the heart of it is the gorgeous 'Vertigo', a heavenly interlude of shimmering wordless vocals, yearning melodies and widescreen design with gentle synth notes bringing the movement. Calm is a label favourite who has remixed and released albums and EPs here many times before. He elevates the track by layering in a languid dub rhythm and synths that swirl around the groove while the choral vocals bring blissful feels.

Once the Pop Archetypes mixes are finished, stay tuned for a special 10” follow-up called Not Archetypes.

Kenneth Bager and Anders Ponsaing revive Zididada classic ‘Please Ya, Lisa’ in epic stadium funk mix
 
'Please Ya, Lisa' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

”I’ve always been a big fan of the song and thought I’d do a sort of timeless but modern club vibe take on the track, inspired by the club and dub versions of the Rolling Stones - especially by legend mixer Arthur Baker.”
 
says Kenneth Bager about the song. The new version is a cover but one that is also re-recorded with the original band members of Zididada, alongside Jonas Krag of Santino Surfers fame, who lends his rhythm guitar to the mix.

Santino Surfers blends sunset disco with hazy guitar rock on new track 

‘Underwater Disco’ →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams
 
Lending his virtuosic guitar licks to smoky, sundrenched chill-out, the Danish guitarist has created his own little trademark sound – a groovy, swaggering, melody-driven instrumental pop, one that is heard from the lounge bars of Ibiza to the vinyl sets of metropolitan coffee shops. 

With just one album released, Santino Surfers has reached 50.000 monthly listeners on Spotify, breaking into a handful of the top chill-out playlists. 

‘Underwater Disco’ offers a taste of what's to come with his  second album, set to release in April 2026 on Music For Dreams.

Autumn leaves are falling down so it's time to light up the candles and get comfy inside! It's been a while since I last uploaded a mixtape so it's about time to provide you with a chilled spacy jazzy recording with some hiphop and funk on the side. Hope you like it!

Our friends across the channel @discothequefantastique have compiled two hours of French nuggets for us... 

"What is France?

A country synonymous with good living (Au Bonheur des dames, Yves Simon), Avant-garde (Jean-Jacques Perrey) and multicultural (Francis Bebey, Vaudou Game or Forever Pavot).  

A language that crosses borders (Plastic Bertrand, Jeanette), and a place where protest and free speech are alive and well (Pierre Vassilliu, Serge Gainsbourg).  

Above all else, France is a country where love is the most talked about topic of conversation (everyone else…).

This is France, and there is so much more…..  Vive la France!"
