About this episode
A mix designed for the transition from day to evening, featuring Balearic grooves and soulful house.
Some mixes are built for the dancefloor. This one was made for the hours in between. The moment when the afternoon heat begins to soften. When the horizon turns gold. When conversations become quieter and the day starts slipping into evening without anyone noticing. Mark Barrott, José Padilla, Mr. Fingers, Session Victim, Nicola Conte, Islandman, Rodney Hunter and CFCF guide the journey through sun-faded Balearic grooves, soulful house, Mediterranean jazz, and downtempo atmospheres. The rhythms never rush. The melodies linger longer than expected. There's a sense of space running through these records. The gentle elegance of Brunch With Suki. The cosmic drift of Islandman's Rest In Space. The understated warmth of A Day in Portugal. The dreamy nostalgia of Castle For Sale. And finally, CFCF's Fleurs Laissées Dans Un Taxi, arriving like the last light disappearing beyond the sea. Not quite lounge music. Not quite house music. Something that lives comfortably between both worlds. Best enjoyed from a rooftop, a balcony, a beach terrace, or anywhere with an open sky overhead.
