Reykjavik-born and bred producer, Tonarunur is no stranger to Dream Chimney, as he’s appeared on a number of compilations on the label going back to 2019. As we enter 2025, Tonarunur is poised for his debut release.

A four-track EP titled Geimotheque is set to come out on January 24th on @the-dream-chimney, a San Francisco-based record label and one of the best music websites out there. Music is My Sanctuary has the pleasure to premiere the EP’s closer – “Lifting Off”, an aptly-titled, 11-minute long, spacey, fusion disco epic.

Eric Broucek was the ur-engineer of the most fertile era of DFA Studios, from about 2003 to 2008 (no one knows anything precisely about that time, as it’s all lost in the fog of chaos). His hand was on all of the remixes, LPs, dance 12s. He was there in that over-designed gear dungeon almost every day, recording, mixing, struggling to not roll his eyes at Tim and me. And somewhere in that fog, he quietly dropped limited runs of three 12-inch delayed reaction bombs on his own label Stickydisc Recordings—two under the name Babytalk, and one as Watussi with another DFA regular, Morgan Wiley.

Back in the day, Eric did not want his music released on DFA. He wanted to forge his own identity, which he did, sending out music that wandered from the DFA path with its uniquely wonky, upended and understated power. His music is so unlike everything else of that era, so profoundly singular, that it still sounds completely out of time.

A few years back, I started DJing the tracks again, and saw how the world was still surprised by what Eric had made, and the idea of this compilation was born.

So, in the end, Eric, we totally got to release your records anyway. We heart you, man.

Babytalk - Chance (Hercules & Love Affair Remix)

First Part is out! 2+3 coming soon 💕🎶

Back in their familiar DOG home, as ever, there's warmth and musicality running through it all, blending dusty house, broken beat and a touch of downtempo haze. ....plenty of live instrumentation, a few carefully chosen samples, and the sense that these are producers still having fun, even after all these years in the game. (Juno records 2025)

The Unheard


The Oriental Brothers International Band of Nigeria is a popular Igbo highlife boy band from Nigeria [based in Owerri] for several decades, known for their powerful lyrics (whether it be of proverbs, or specials being dedicated to special people in the country of Nigeria), and deft instrumental work (whether of the lead guitar, or the conga man's professional play of the congas in their break sections of songs) with their unique style of highlife. The Original Oriental Brothers International consisted of five members; Godwin "Kabaka" Opara [leader of the band, and rhythm guitarist], Chief Christogonus "Dr. Sir Warrior" Ezewuiro Obinna [vocalist, also know asUltimate Dr. Sir Warrior from 1993-'96], Ferdinand "DanSatch" Chukwuemeka Opara [Founder, lead guitarist, bass player till 1976 when self-titled album, featuring song "Murtala Mohammed," released], Livinus Akwịla (spelt "Aquila" in English) Alaribe [conga player and maraca player], and finally, Fred "Ichita" Ahumaraeze [drummer]. Later members came at the time of the band being, such as Charles Boumda, Aloysius (Aloy) Anyanwu, and Tony Awoma [who was apart of the band with Satch in the beginning before the band formed, but left because he could not stay in one place].

Qui Ne S'arrête Pas (Patchworks Remix)

Session Victim - Make It Happen w/  Nebraska - [Delusions Of Grandeur]

Art Longo - Quantum Ceviche (Jaakko Eino Kalevi Remix)

Composer and ambient producer Troels Hammer serenades the famous Spanish pilgrimage on 

‘Camino De Santiago’  →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams
 
The Danish artist conceived of the track while looking back on his trek from Porto to Santiago De Compostela. It is composed alongside Mads Hammer and William Høst, the latter of whom features on Spanish guitar, adding a warm and mellow sway around Hammer’s floating notes.
 
The artist notes that the operative question of this piece – plucked from the conversations you have while wandering the route – is “why do you go?” or “why are you here”?
 
The song is taken from Hammer’s forthcoming eight album for Music For Dreams.

Supported by Koda’s Cultural Funds and Musik Forlæggerne.

Tracksuit & Loafers (Club Nowadays, Vol. 6)

Session Victim - Rain Or Shine [Delusions Of Grandeur]

memory

Reggae in the City is a vibrant 17-track adventure that brings reggae rhythm into the heart of America’s largest cities. Each song is inspired by one of the 17 biggest cities in the USA, transforming their energy, culture, and skyline stories into warm island-flavored grooves.

From the electric pulse of New York and Los Angeles to the deep-rooted soul of Chicago, Houston, and Philadelphia, the album celebrates the unique character of every destination. Smooth basslines, uplifting melodies, and soulful guitar moments carry listeners through the charm of San Antonio, the glow of San Diego, the bold spirit of Dallas and Fort Worth, the southern breeze of Charlotte, the coast of Jacksonville, the innovation of San Jose, the strength of Indianapolis, the rhythm of Columbus, and the misty magic of Seattle.

Together, these 17 tracks form a musical map of America — one where skyline lights meet reggae warmth, and every city becomes a beat in the same united rhythm.

A tribute to American cities.
A journey across landscapes and lives.
A reggae celebration of the places people call home.

This is Reggae in the City.
