and a sooper lovely (mostly) dub mix at that! perfect for lounging around, whether it be at the poolside or on the coast looking out at the beach... or somewhere in some sunshiney goodness, there are plenty of wicked vibrations to ebb with...
towards the end it gets a bit more moody, so you can try timing it perfectly from sunset to nightfall, it should work out nicely!
roll a joint, park off and kick back to this mix and enjoy!
"This morning's FACT mix takes the form of a very special session from King Midas Sound, the trio of Kevin 'The Bug' Martin, Roger Robinson and Hitomi.
All live edited, with special effects and additional vocals and commentary from the London trio, KMS's FACT mix reads like a list of influences on their twilight Lovers Rock sound, featuring sweet reggae in Tanya Stephens and Gregory Isaacs, dusty shoegaze in My Bloody Valentine and A.R. Kane and modern favourites Burial and Little Dragon, plus tracks from Sade, Larry Heard and Scritti Politti, and material from King Midas' forthcoming debut album, Waiting For You on Hyperdub.
We're blown away by it, and pretty much play it every other morning in our office. Not only is it a great listen, it provides a genuine insight into the conception of Waiting For You - one of the year's most intriguing albums - which is due to drop towards the end of this month.
