After immersive and emotive contributions from Jan Schulte and Moonboots, Music For Dreams’ collectors series continues to delight with this playful and profound selection from Growing Bin curator Basso.

A longtime friend of the legendary Copenhagen label, Basso is a 5th dan black belt in the ancient art of digging, a fearless selector and adroit editor who knows more about records than anyone you know. On its journey from blog to shop to label, the Growing Bin has become the perfect embodiment of its creator – smarter than the average bear, eagle-eared and very very funny – the kind of cat who’s just as comfortable serving cocktails by the pool as taking an esoteric road-trip. So sit back, let the falanghina chill and load up on sonic sunscreen.

Armed with birdsong, backbeat and Spanish guitar, Hans Hasse says hello via the sumptuous Austrian Balea-rock of ‘Welche Farbe Hat Der Wind’, an AOR albatross which soars high above the cliff tops, chills on the jet-stream then dives deep into scat silliness. This impactful opener gives way to cucumber cool ‘The Dawn’, a forgotten jazz break from stoner heroes DJ Food built entirely from tender tabla, horizontal synthlines and positive energy – strictly high grade folks…

How do you follow such a downbeat delight? With something from Golden Pudel resident and acid-techno warlock RVDS of course! But before you raid your medicine cabinet, remember that beauty can be found everywhere, and nestled away in Richard von der Schulenburg’s 2016 outing “Shadows” was ketamine bossa lullaby ‘Minuet de Vampire’. As the clean bass tones and simple rhythm stroll through the shadows, a haunting harp line tugs at your heartstrings, pulling you into the light and holding you tight. The harp-healing continues on Horizont’s ‘Light Of Darkness’, an esoteric odyssey with the greatest key change you’ll ever hear, and a dreamy segue into Xiame’s sedate jazz-pop pearl ‘Nosso Destino’.

Basso brings the first disc to a close with an all time Growing Bin favourite, Mico Layczak. Here the NDW queen is in more restrained mode, conjuring an avant pop paradise with the atmospheric ‘Im Garten’ – a dead cert for any fans of MFD alumni 55 Canri E.

At the top of the C-side, Massimo Stella’s ‘C’è Una Donna Sola’ explores another Growing Bin speciality – acceptable fusion. This sweet Mediterranean shuffler makes a delightful defence of jazz’s most maligned sub-genre before the esoteric, organic and new age flavours intensify on Trimolo’s ‘Tempo 100’, a subtle groover topped by breezy flute and clipped guitar licks. Moving from woodland to wave, Basso introduces a man who definitely wore his sunglasses at night, unsung synth popper Diedel. Eerie and emotional, ‘Wo Seid Ihr’ is the sound of Don Johnson driving that white Spyder down the autobahn at night.

Taking a turn towards the dance floor, Basso serves up Mikey D’s ‘I Need You’, an exceptionally rare German streetsoul bomb in dubform, complete with sampled vox and high school prom vocals before flexing his scalpel skills via an expert extension of German rockers’ Wolfsmond’s groovy ‘Fühl Dich Frei’, a serious secret weapon for any Balearic DJ.

The tempo drops to a cinematic stroll with Ghia’s ‘You Won’t Sleep On My Pillow’, a sweet synth pop serenade which cuts straight to the heart of the break up, keeps its cool and soundtracks your slow dance at the end of the night. And to finish, how about the most moving electronic jam ever, Jean-Philippe Rykiel’s “Fair Light”, a shimmering, shining jazz-rock opus played entirely on synth.

So there you have it, a selection of rare cuts, Plattenrille discoveries, organic excursions and electric lullabies, all perfectly at home in the Growing Bin. Whether you’re coping some rays, watering the plants or tackling the tax return, ‘Proper Sunburn’ will ensure you keep your cool and stay smiling. Copenhagens Music For Dreams has done it again with this release for the proper connoisseurs
