Your Call is Very Important to Us, by LVSTER

a2454418114_10

Nice washed-out vapor sounds presented by Vivarium Recordings,  featuring 14 lush tracks with a nice lounge vibe. Huge focus on emotion and texture in this one, making me feel like I am standing in a hotel lobby in 1994 waiting on hold on a payphone. The whole release also gave me very light Steely Dan vibes, particularly with the highlighted samples and melodies used. Overall a very enjoyable listen!

909, by MASTER SYSTEM

Cool little release from the folks over at Commercial Dreams LTD, 909 is experienced then re-imagined through the eyes and hearts of 3 other producers. Wistful and deep, though short this release is a wonder to behold.
