Coralcola: Where techno and shoegazing collide

Mikey Lee's latest production under his Coralcola guise is simply sublime:

Coralcola - Egggirl (Dropbox)

The following description is what drew me in:

""Egggirl" is a stunning 10 minute trip of what sounds like Slowdive throwing away their guitars and tweaking knobs in a dark room with Gui Boratto and a bucket full of MDMA."

The Field meets Gui Boratto is also quite accurate. And it would also appeal to fans of ambient stuff like Fennesz (who interestingly enough have done the latest instalment of the In The Fish Tank series, collaborating with Sparklehorse).


He also has this cassette mixtape (yeah you heard me), but it's quite intense. Psychedelic and experimental. So won't appeal to everyone. Mash your brain in a bit:

Coralcola - Summer Mixtape (Sendspace)

But then there is this older remix he's done. Again... back to the prettiness of his latest:

Universal Studios Florida - Capri Sun Caravan (Coralcola Dawn Edit) (MediaFire)

And finally, another lovely production. reminds a bit of Four Tet:
