Format : Digital + 12" Vinyl + CD
Release Date : 17/08/15

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.

Dominique Lawalrée (b. 1954) is a composer born and based in Brussels. First Meeting is Lawalrée's first archival release to date. Culled from four different albums originally self-published on his private label Editions Walrus, circa 1978-1982, this compilation highlights the composer's unique sense of ambient and minimal composition. Originally considered for release on Brian Eno's Obscure Records, Lawalrée's music is now no longer hidden. 

In this collection, the listener finds the sounds of piano, synthesizers, percussion, wurlitzer, organ, and voice, all performed by Lawalrée. Using these tools Dominique creates miniature themes that gallop across the speakers in slow motion, stretching our normal sense of dynamics and color, effortlessly widening the stereo plane. On “Musique Satieerique,” Dominique pays homage to the influence of Satie with simple repeated piano figures and a lush field of organs and flutes. And on other selections, like “Le Maison Des 5 Elements,” he takes a more wistful, ambient approach, layering keyboard lines, and invoking found/tape sounds to create a hypnogogic world of his own. Childlike in its playfulness and surreal to the bone, the music spins like a carrousel placed inside the Rothko Chapel. Lawalrée’s sense of timbre, tone, and overarching composition is like an impression of a home movie whose charm lies in its knowledge of intimacy, shared by few. An incantation of innocence.

Smoke hung thick in the air as he glanced around the room. He occasionally caught the eyes of one or two who nodded their heads and began to move in time with the slow moving pace of the drums.

This was the part in which he'd slip in, insert into dub and forget the outside. It had been a long week after all, what with all the stress and grey clouds which lingered overhead.

It was hard to find peace in this life but for the occasional rumble of the bass and the drums. 

Pawel's Bar is a mysterious alias, a moniker for a producer some will know well. This new EP is forthcoming on OK Spirit, an eclectic mixture of spacious dubbed out electronics with a moody undertone. Highly recommended.
