Setting out to create a future Balearic anthem while doffing a cap to street soul and synth-heavy Italo-disco B-sides of the early 1980s, Orbs of Light’s debut single, ‘Billion Days’ lands on Leng after a tip-off from Mind Fair duo Dean Meredith and Ben Shenton, who booked the duo to play live at their Rotation festival last summer.

Orbs of Light’s Baz Bradley and A Girl Called Kate have been friends for decades and have collaborated musically in the past, though it was only a couple of years ago that they dreamed up this project. It was first trialled via a 2021 remix for Andres y Xavi on Hollis Recordings (‘Perfect Timing’) on which Kate added new vocals to Bradley’s interpretation of the track. Since then, regular recording sessions have taken place, with the duo first crafting tight instrumental tracks before – in Bradley’s words – “dream up the best songs we can” with “melodies that will hopefully stay in your head all day”.

It would be fair to say that they’ve achieved that goal on ‘Billion Days’, a hooky and addictive affair whose vocal hooks and strong chorus could well inspire Balearic sing-alongs in the months ahead. Their original mix (B1 on the vinyl version of the EP, track 2 on the digital EP) is joyous, cheery and kaleidoscopic, with steel pan style melodies, bouncy synth stabs, jaunty lead lines and Kate’s wonderful lead vocal riding a shuffling, post street soul beat and a bubbly bassline.

The accompanying remix package is naturally very strong too. San Francisco crew 40 Thieves, fresh from dropping a killer single of their own on Leng (‘The Gift’, with disco legends Gary Davis and Cinnamon Jones), step up first with a take that stretches out and builds on Orbs of Light’s original mix – think wobbly nu-disco synth bass, fresh flute sounds, dubbed-out vocal snippets and a locked-in groove that’s just perfect for sun-soaked alfresco dancing.

Fittingly, the second and final revision comes from Mind Fair, whose email to Leng HQ about Orbs of Light got the ball rolling. Opting for a rubbery, body-popping beat inspired by vintage electro, they deliver a joyful, effects-laden Balearic dancefloor ‘Dub Mix’ that somehow makes a genuinely life-affirming record even more loved-up and saucer-eyed – despite the presence of only a fraction of Kate’s addictive lead vocal.

The Belgian artist and multi-instrumentalist is ready with another album. Circle Back comes as part of Vanbergen’s inspired-by-series: a run of albums written in inspiration by—and sometimes in cross-disciplinary collaboration with—special friends of the artist.

Circle Back (Inspired By Kadir Ferati Balci) →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

For this project Vanbergen turns to the Belgian filmmaker Kadir Ferati Balci as muse. Balci selected short fragments of his work, forming them into a kind of visual summaries of his oeuvre, ranging from films to docu. He added an extra dimension to these fragments, reversing parts and rendering everything in a circle.

The music is still a world unto itself. Eight jazz tracks each with a music video by Kadir Ferati Balci, accompanied by a hidden sequence, psychedelic sounds and alienating, contemplative, philosophical lyrics sung by Charlotte Caluwaerts.

The collaboration between Caluwaerts, Vanbergen and Balci is not new. On several projects Balci directed, the music was provided by the Vanbergen-Caluwaerts duo. This time, however, the music did not have to be functional, as was more the case with previous collaborations (docu about Stefan Hertmans, the series "Een Goed Jaar," the series "Storm Lara").

Vanbergen once graduated as a Jazz violinist at the Conservatory of Ghent. On this record he shows that. He enlists the help of Belgium's finest, Dre Pallemaerts and Lara Rosseel, on drums and double bass, and Charlotte Caluwaerts doesn't fail to show how broad her pallet has become over the years.

Reinhard Vanbergen & Charlotte Caluwaerts - Circle Back (Full Album) - 0309

The first taste of Prins Emanuel’s forthcoming Diagonal Musik II has landed.

‘Västan Vind’ →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

is an organic, gauzy composition that sits between post-minimalism, IDM, and experimental folk. Textured melodic loops are layered with subtle electronic elements to create a liminal feel of lost emotion, blooming and deepening in warm surges.

Quoting Simon Eliasson, the LP will see “composer Prins Emanuel in full bloom as he turns head deep into the techniques he established on the preceding outing of Diagonal Musik.” Album release November 3rd.

On the ‘Year-End’ the Swedish artist continues to demonstrate his ability to wring complex effects from primitive sound. It is a slow-growing music, with organic and electronic layers weaving into each other in striking harmonies.

Prins Emanuel - Year-End - s0769

RADIO.D59B / FOUR2SIX #14 w/ Dubbeldee

Music For Dreams are proud to announce that a new album is underway from the electronic pop-ensemble Hess Is More. The first track from the project, titled 

‘You And Me And Them’ →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

Led by Danish drummer and composer Mikkel Hess, the ensemble has released 12 albums since 2003, donning a shifting constellation of musicians from both sides of the Atlantic. Hess Is More’s material combines styles of electronic music, jazz, krautrock and afrobeat in a pop-oriented, melodically rich sound.

The act is also known for its work across mediums, collaborating with visual artists, designers and filmmakers, recently producing the highly acclaimed series of dramatized concerts slash art installations known as Apollonian Circles.

The forthcoming album, titled CÆKE, bridges back to Hess Is More’s early albums, with the act scaled back down to a solo operation of Mikkel Hess writing, producing and performing most of the music himself. The result is a more minimalistic and personal sound than the sprawling material of later ensemble-projects.

The first single, titled ‘You And Me And Them’, is a gentle, spacious pop composition built around piano, drum machine and vocals, all performed by Mikkel Hess. A pristine and wistful mood that blooms and deepens through soft, twirling melodics.

The song was written by Mikkel Hess his wife Nira Kehar in their countryside home. The serene mood of the track reflects this setting, capturing the intimacy of time spent by the piano. In Mikkel’s own words, “the song is a close-up view of life as it unfolds twenty years after the first album came out, and a reaching out to those who might be listening from the beyond.”

The album is scheduled for release in late 2024 on Music For Dreams.

Supported by Koda’s Cultural Funds and Musik Forlæggerne.

Hess Is More - You and Me and Them - s0779

Mine dronninger marks the final chapter of Fuimadane. This fourth and last album follows the trilogy Mine høvdinge and brings together 44 acoustic tracks — songs born before Fuimadane, drawn from my earliest music projects. Rooted in guitar and violin, the album carries both joy and sorrow, light and shadow. It is a farewell, but also a tribute — dedicated to the queens of my life: my mother, my paternal grandmother, and my maternal grandmother. Thank you for listening.

"For my two children, Bjørn & Røskva – the light in my darkest days, and the reason my melodies still carry meaning."

Kessir made the cover <3
