What is the concept behind this Showcase?
"Trees Enjoy Sunshine Too" is the result of my recent trip to Magnetic Island in North Queensland. I happened to walk past a lagoon with paperbark trees enjoying some sunshine, which gave me a sense of peacefulness that inspired this organic, nature-leaning mix!
What are the highlights of this Showcase?
- 1.Mira Miruna— Stella ZA recent release by a London-based producer from China. I've been a huge fan of her work since stumbling upon her debut EP "In The Woods, Will Be Late" at a record store in Japan in 2023. Her new track Mira Miruna has a highly dreamlike, hazy, and organic tone that fits really well into this mix!
- 2.Sun Room— Wilson TannerI've seen Wilson Tanner live a few times, it's great living in Melbourne! I vividly remember watching them open for Ichiko Aoba and improvise over a few of their releases. They're super nonchalant on stage, which is fun to see. Sun Room is an ambient track that slowly grabs your attention, which is why I chose it as the opening track for the mix. (It also helps that the word "Sun" ties in well with the organic theme of the mix! :^P)
- 3.Water Wave Stone (Barrio Lindo Remix)— Lim GiongWater Wave Stone is an ambient track by the Taiwanese artist Lim Giong. You might recognise his name from the credits of the movie "Millennium Mambo," for which he created the soundtrack. This version is remixed by the Argentinian producer Barrio Lindo, the founder of Shika Shika. While it's ambient, the remix has a pretty euphoric undertone, which is why I chose it!
On the genres and styles featured in this Showcase
Ambient, downtempo, and left-field electronica. Expect tracks that are warm, hazy, and organic, with dub-leaning textures.
