After three years of cool temperatures and record-breaking rain down under, El Niño announced his return down under with some scorching spring temperatures last week.

With an early and hot summer on the horizon, we thought it was about time for a new mixtape featuring our latest selection of sun drenched sounds and office grooves.

Now streaming via SoundCloud with full tracklist on the blog ~ thanks for being Cools.

Barney Cools ~ Poolside Etiquette mixtape 36

A bouncy, euphoric set recorded live from Salty Jack's presents The Night Lotus 05/31/25. For context, it was midnight in a warehouse in San Francisco, filled with fun friends, who were ready to go, so we exchanged vibes and I genre-hopped around as per usual. Credit to a receptive and loving dance floor where I felt inspired to bang it out a little more. Photo by Jen Peng

Beach Club DJ mix 002

Matthew Shaw’s travels continue. His wanderings have led him to Seatown, Sandbanks, the woods of Zeist, and the inner city of Vancouver. Now he documents a week-long trip to Lamorna, Cornwall, in the summer of 2012.

Shaw writes: “The recordings were made in the Lamorna valley, the cove, the woods and also within the Iron Age Boleigh Fogou which is an underground structure over 2,000 years old. The Fogou derives from the Cornish for Fou or Vou, meaning cave.”

“In terms of the sound of the finished music, it was recorded largely on location using acoustic guitar, bowed guitars, Moog Prodigy, my voice and a sprinkling of effects where required. It relied on the sounds of the places themselves, the trees, river and Fogou in particular. The mixing process was based on taking these raw ingredients and sculpting them into a finished whole, with the place as the focus.”

The result is a slow tide of strings, ambient vistas, and delirious harmonies that echo, then dissipate into the eponymous landscape. From the inner triumph of “Rosemerrynwood” to the tense and pulse-quickening modern composition “Bo-Lech” and the buoyant, living title track, Lamorna is a remembered call from an ancient place.

Fluid Audio presents Lamorna in a limited edition run of 100 hand made letter pressed CD’s, along with 6 large format (150mm x 150mm) double sided photographic prints taken by the artist on his journey. The package also includes a natural Larch wood slice, pressed Viola flower, rare poem by Ithell Colquhoun, download code and scent. All of the above rests inside hand typed/numbered/sealed Manilla envelopes.

Release Date: 29.03.13
