Music For Dreams is releasing a new artist album from Ruf Dug entitled ‘Island’ on 17th August 2015. A 12” vinyl sampler of the album was released on 22nd June.
 
In the summer of 2014 Ruf Dug spent 3 months on the island of Guadeloupe in the French Caribbean. Earlier in the year Kenneth Bager had asked him to record an album for Music For Dreams.

Seizing the opportunity to live out his own Compass Point studios fantasy he put together a portable studio that would fit into a suitcase - two half-rack synthesizers, a couple of effects units, a laptop and a 4-track cassette recorder. He set up the studio in the spare bedroom of his villa and spent the next 12 weeks watching the sun set and making the album.

All the tracks were written and recorded in Guadeloupe, with Nev Cottee beaming in vocals and guitar parts for a couple of the tracks direct from the heart of Mancunia, hooking into the powerful and long-standing musical relationship between Manchester and that most famous of sunset islands - Ibiza.
 
This music is not only for sunsets, but also for late-night smuggling adventures; for tropical storms and rum-soaked afternoons; for pirates, playboys and people like you and me.

The end result helps take you to an island of sound that’s neither Guadeloupe nor Ibiza, but rather that island of the imagination, one we all escape to from time to time, no matter where we find ourselves. 

Hailing from Manchester, Ruf Dug is a charismatic old school talent who makes raw records that rely on great sampling with releases on labels like Popular People’s Front and Unknown To The Unknown, but also Ruffy’s own limited Ruf Kutz imprint with support from Ben UFO, Moodymann, Craig Richards, Erol Alkan and many other tastemakers the world over.
