We’re happy to present the latest installment of the infamous Sunset Sessions compiled by our very own Kenneth Bager. This eleventh volume in the series is packed with new and sparkling material to greet the summer twilight and send you spinning into the night.

'The Sunset Sessions Vol. 11' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

Kicking it off we have Be.Lanuit’s warm breeze of soul-infused Balearica by the title of ‘El Picador Telepathico’, featuring Danish guitarist Santino Surfers. Following up is the spiritually lounging ‘Eko Maina’ by chillout veteran Phil Mison aka Ambala feauturing beautiful Afro-Cuban vocals by Iyami Aje. And Ken Fan follows up with ‘Under The Moon’, a nocturnal trip-hop-inspired sound with gorgeous ghostly vocals by Vicky Kroon. Next up Colleen Murphy's Cosmodelica Remix of Jacob Gurevitsch 'Elevation In Minor, a true sunset gem.

We have some lovely sundrenched boogie from Willie Graff & Darren Eboli’s Tribeca Tapes-series, a luscious piece of jazzy chillout by Mike Salta & Mortale, a shuffling percussion dance from Subnesia, a twinkly 80’s inspired disco-thriller by newcomer Wille and much much more from the garden fresh catalogs of Music For Dreams.

Kenneth Bager - The Sunset Sessions Vol. 11 (Full Comp) - 0347

https://kindischoffical.bandcamp.com/album/kindisch-stories-by-marco-tegui

Kindisch Stories returns with a chapter from Marco Tegui that features eight completely new and
exclusive tracks as well as two remixes of classics from the label's back catalogue.
Peruvian musician Marco Tegui began his musical journey in 2009, firstly making an impact in South
America before graduating to the world stage. He is now based in Ibiza and was previously A&R at
Berlin’s iconic Bar25 label as well as managing its sister imprint Sirin Music before starting his own
DowntempoLove label. He has a magical live set that combines the same rich harmonies, hypnotic
sounds and melodic synths as his productions on labels like Get Physical, Stil For Talent and many
more. This new album is a rich tapestry of South American melodies, instrumentals and Tegui's own
exquisite musicianship.
Up first is a remix of Marco Tegui & Israel Vich's 'Tortuga' - a Kindisch back-catalogue track from 2019
that is a woozy and late-night sound to draw you in. 'Amun-Ra' brings bubbly synths and intoxicating
melodies while 'Clarao de Lua' is a more gentle sound with Portuguese vocals and sunny melodies
from acoustic guitar. 'Panjabi' with Solar Kings is the sound of an Indian street market in full flow over
breezy grooves, 'Apuyaya' perfectly layers up swaying grooves and Latin percussion with more South
American melodies and 'Danzar' is a deep and hypnotic roller with spine-tingling vocals.
After the trance-inducing magic of 'Voodoo' comes the second Solar Kings collaboration 'Wild West,'
an evocative and multi-layered track that brings to mind cowboys in the US. 'El Valle Sagrado' Feat.
Jon Aragon slows things down again to spine-tingling, candle-lit melodies and sultry chords before
Tegui remixes his 2018 collaboration with Israel Vich into a final mesmerising groove.
This is a superb musical journey that also tells the tale of Marco Tegui, one of deep house's finest
modern artists.

Anders Ponsaing - Offshore (ft. Reinhard Vanbergen) [Sunset Edit] - s0737

Ahead of their European tour, Turkish electronic group islandman announce the release of the EP Popsicle Obstacle, out October 13 on Music For Dreams.

'Popsicle Obstacle' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

The new material collected on the EP tracks a musical pathway from archaic folk traditions and regional acoustics through the electronic sequencer. From the spiritualist dream of primitive past to the glossy utopia of digital future.

The core members of Islandman are multi-instrumentalist & producer, Tolga Böyük and Eralp Güven (percussion) and Erdem Başer (guitars). Islandman have become known for their live performances, as anyone who has witnessed their live streams
from Istanbul for the London Jazz Festival and Boiler Room can attest to.

The Popsicle Obstacle EP follows the group’s third album Godless Ceremony of 2021 and their 2022 EP Bahar.

Following a summer of breakthrough live performances, the Danish-Honduran singer Julie Pavon releases her debut EP, 

'Watch Her Dance' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

From lighting up Roskilde Festival to soundtracking the Hermès runway at Paris Fashion Week and selling out her first headliner shows, Julie Pavon is beginning to cause stirs on the dance music scene.

She’s been dubbed by Danish critics as the country’s fiercest live performer. Her music has figured on BBC Radio 6 as well as receiving pick of the week from the largest Danish pop channel, P3.

With only four songs out—‘Jealous’, ‘Herd Animals’, ‘Don’t Call Me Out’ and ‘High’— she has managed to charm both critics and audiences with her combination of raw, leftfield beats and fiery, resounding vocals. The music is accompanied by vivid, confrontational visuals. A meeting of style, energy and emotion that certifies her as a voice of her generation.

Now Julie is ready to announce her debut EP. The release, titled Watch Her Dance, will feature three new tracks (‘Watch Her Dance’, ‘Bouquet of Flowers’ and ‘Hey Sister’) and three that are already out as singles (‘Don’t Call Me Out’, ‘Herd Animals’ and ‘High’). The music on the EP is produced by Julie Pavon in collaboration with Uffe Christensen (Uffe).

Julie Pavon - Watch Her Dance (Full EP) - S0773

Danish producer Dalholt reveals his first solo LP La Vie, a soul-nurturing batch of downtempo delights. The album will be released November 10th on Music For Dreams.

'La Vie' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

Mads Dalholt is previously known for his work as part of the duo Dalholt & Langkilde, whose 2015 album Sur Plus has been heralded as a modern classic in the downtempo genre. More recently, Dalholt has released an EP in collaboration with Bjarno (of Djuma Soundsystem).

This new LP, titled La Vie, continues Dalholt exploration of the melodic, soulful and dreamy terrain of electronic music. The music is produced in a hybrid setup of electronic and acoustic elements. Dalholt’s mixing of hardware synths and analog guitars, pianos and drums generates a warm and textured sound, which chugs along in deep rhythms and swelling melodics arranged around a well-travelled suite of vocal samples.

Like Dalholt’s previous material, La Vie, is a record that orients itself towards the Ibiza-scene and its surrounding realm. The artist is a notorious provider of sunset soundtracks on the while isle and has featured on notable Balearic and chill-out compilations such as Jockey Club, Milchbar and Buddha-bar.

The Copenhagen series showcases the best new releases from Music For Dreams, as selected by label boss Kenneth Bager. The second installment of the 2023 edition is being released on Nov 14th.

'Copenhagen 2023, Vol. 2' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

Spanning gutsy house pop, lush electronic anthems, cinematic synth realms and spaced-out downtempo. Featuring venerable Balearic masters and keen
newcomers. Everything you need to go spelunking through the dreamworld, all in one place.

Highlights include Kenneth Bager & Findlay Brown’s first single ‘Don’t Give Up’ off their forthcoming album, the minimalistic art-pop of Hess Is More’s ‘You And Me And Them’, islandman’s stratospheric summer anthem ‘Sunshine’, Ken Fan’s pristine chill-out track ‘Mariwo’, and Julie Pavon’s indomitable funk-house hit ‘Don’t Call Me Out’.

It's been a strong year for Music For Dreams, with the label intensifying their
pursuit of the sonic eccentricities that struggle to find a home elsewhere in the current music ecosystem. Lots of great releases that didn’t make it onto here as well, which you are encouraged to check out.

Kenneth Bager - Copenhagen 2023, Vol. 2 (Full Comp) - 0344

An updated suite of chill-out, ambient and modern classical to align the mental frequencies, compiled by Music For Dreams label boss Kenneth Bager.

'Music For Mindfulness, Vol. 7' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

Starting off with Ghent-based Reinhard Vanbergen, who delivers a work of sweeping electronic waves interspersed with ghostly orchestral cries. On through a batch of sweet, aquatic chill-out tracks from Be.Lanuit, Phil Mison’s Ambala-project and Ken Fan and some wonderful guitar-laden ambient pop from Troels Hammer.

The always reliable Dj Pippi & Willie Graff are one here with a couple of gently tempered boogie tracks. So is the Danish-Brazillian alliance Copenema and the master of the Spanish guitar, Jacob Gurevitsch, who delivers a breezy morning meditation.
And more!

Kenneth Bager - Music For Mindfulness Vol. 7 (Full Comp) - 0338

Label chief Kenneth Bager rounds up the very best tracks released this year on Music For Dreams. The compilation will be released digitally on December 29.

'Music For Dreams, Best Of 2023' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

The Copenhagen-based indie label has entered the third decade of its existence as a stronghold in the outer regions of pop and electronic music. The label’s ever eclectic output reflects the taste of its founder and man-in-charge, DJ and producer Kenneth Bager: a man as comfortable with campy sunbathed pop as he is with finespun minimalism and experimental electronic adventures. What is sought here at the Copenhagen offices is music with a personality.

As a showcase of the label’s current operations, Kenneth Bager here compiles the highlights from this year’s releases. “I think the selection of tracks reflects the consistent quality of output we’ve been able to produce. Our music is very eclectic and often outside the codes of conventional taste. But I think that is what sets us apart and why people keep listening to us,” Bager says.

The compilation comprises 25 tracks which run the full spectrum of MFD’s
offerings: from full-bodied Balearic anthems and funk-heavy house pop to
sweeping ambient landscapes and nebulous electronic experiments.

Check out such gems as the warm, cornucopian downtempo of ‘El Malagueño’ from Spanish Be.lanuit’s debut LP; the exquisite repose of Ambala’s ‘Quiet Yellow Purple’; the ethereal melancholia of Hess Is More’s ‘You And Me And Them’, the vulcanic funk of Julie Pavon’s house pop hit ‘Don’t Call Me or the ghostly electro-acoustic echoes of Prins Emanuel’s ‘Västan Vind’.

Music For Dreams, Best Of 2023 (Full Comp) - 0330

The London-based DJ and producer Phil Mison is back in style—by which we mean proper unabashed jazz-&-funk-loaded Balearic-style—with the new single ‘Amor Bailar’ under his Ambala-moniker.

'Amor Bailar' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

The track releases January 12 on Music For Dreams and features a selection of the MFD usual suspects. Young guns WALTHER and OliO have their signature on the programming: a sleek, cruising groove adorned by guitars courtesy of Jonas Krag aka Santino Surfers, and vocals by trio Iyami Aje.

‘Amor Bailar’ comes off Mison’s next album, one of the big projects on the horizon for Music For Dreams.
