about

This EP originally released on vinyl in late 2017 via Cosmic Pint Glass as part of their Keg series, featuring a bonus 10" with remixes from Daniel T and Miskotom.

As well as the obvious Balearic connotations the tracks are inspired by a range of land and seascapes from tropical (Volcanic Glass), desert (Yucca) and coral (Cavernosa), to the Nordic inspired opener and closer, loosely inspired by the sound of Röyksopp and Todd Terje.

Presented as a sound journey first and foremost, any "dance" beats present are merely a means to drive the music along.

The "Islander" version of Yucca here is the definitive mix and arrangement, improving on a rough demo that appeared on The Chillout Lounge compilation in 2015.
