NuNorthern Soul

3 TRACK ALBUM SAMPLER >>> https://s.disco.ac/zgbqjpuzioho

"Imaginary Golf Game," the digital album by One Half of Bent, is a fantastical, fun musical trip featuring 8-bit sounds. This whimsical collection of tracks transports listeners into a playful, retro-inspired world, blending nostalgic chiptune elements with Mills' signature creativity and charm. Perfect for fans of quirky, imaginative soundscapes, "Imaginary Golf Game" offers a delightful escape into a pixelated musical adventure.

Released on Friday across all digital and streaming platforms.

Thanks to Juno Records for the words about the George Solar mini album, MOONBEAMS.

It appears a few words have gone missing from their review, can you fill in the blanks...?

"NuNorthern Soul always says it is not a soul music label, but a label for music with soul, and this new and dreamy offering from George Solar very much embodies that. It's a smooth fusion of cosmic, ambient, romance and Balearic bliss across six sublime sounds. 'Media Luna' opens up with slow-motion drums awash with gentle shakers and splashy hi-hats, 'Moonbeams' brings more liquid rhythms and worldly drum sounds and 'Countermoon' shuts down the a-side with a late night, star-gazing feel. A trio of lush, pillowy, immersive sounds and magical flutes close out the..."

We reckon its "...close out the B Side."

The album is getting some incredible love and support from a whole heap of music loving friends and family...

Wonderful collection of the type of dreamy downtempo music I live for. Excellent and very cohesive. - François K [NYC]

Wow the drums on that first track are lush AF. Swampy. "Countermoon" is another fave, excellent groove on that. The whole release is so exotic-sounding, the sound palette is so rich and vivid, it's immersive. - MIKE B [VINYL DREAMS RECORD STORE SAN FRANCISCO, USA]

A brilliant chilled album, hints of past with a modern twist. - Nick Warren

Proper deep Balearic business from THE downtempo master. - Chris Coco [UK]

This is an absolute killer of an album, wonderful from beginning to end. Thanks for sharing. It's hard to pick a favourite as they're all so bloody good! Hats off to George and you for getting this out into the world. Every track is worthy of a play on Music for Beaches. I'll be getting as many on air as I can. Love it! - DAVE HOWELLS [MUSIC FOR BEACHES, AUS]

I like Lunaticotina the most and will support this. - KENNETH BAGER [MUSIC FOR DREAMS]

Wonderful feedback coming in on the Joan Bibiloni releases, thank you Ashley Beedle for the words and Ban Ban Ton Ton for the review.

Thanks Ban Ban Ton Ton for the great review of Zeynep Erbay 'Healer' EP

Phil Cooper welcomes Turkish musician Zeynep Erbay to the NuNorthern Soul roster with the arrestingly beautiful Healer. Listening to the record, it’ll come as no surprise to learn that Zeynep spent many years studying at a classical musical conservatory. Her elegant piano playing colours everything on the E.P. She also did a stint at the Red Bull Music Academy, and has previously released music on Compost and Soul Clap. The story behind the music concerns a whale’s emotional search for her lost family. Her sense of longing, and hopelessness, balanced by hopefulness vibrates within the arrangements. Phil brings onboard two remixers to amp up the vibes, but it’s Marshall Watson’s mix that`s the winner for me. His version of Healer Whale blending dubby disco and Nu Balearic to stunning effect. 8/10

OUT NOW
ZEYNEP ERBAY - HEALER EP
DETAILS >>> https://tr.ee/wNL3I0mD1P

Zeynep Erbay, a classically trained pianist who took a turn towards the dance-floor while at university, the Turkish DJ/producer earned her first release on Compost Records way back in 2007 after taking part in the 2006 edition of the Red Bull Music Academy programme. Since then, her career has been on an upwards trajectory, with releases on Fools Gold and Soul Clap Records confirming Erbay as a genuine rising star of underground electronic music.

On the Healer EP, the Istanbul-based producer showcases the more atmospheric, sun-kissed end of her productions, taking a turn away from synth-powered, disco-leaning club tracks towards something more suitable for al-fresco events, sun-down sets, and sofa-bound listening sessions.

Inspired by a poem inscribed on the back cover of the EP, Erbay’s two original instrumental tracks simply ooze with emotion. The poem tells the story of a whale searching for her family while helping others along the way, which acts as a metaphor for our wider search for belonging and acceptance.
