The Underwater Island is a collection of four tracks from Grenoble based producer Denis Morin. Philosopher, gardener, father and sonic explorer. Our friendship dates back over a decade, with some of this music first shared during a visit to Glasgow almost 5 years to the day - when 12th Isle the label was but an idea. For ISLE009, Vague Imaginaires gifts us with autobiographical field recordings, FM synthesis and skilled sound design inspired by the ocean and the Drac river which flows through the mountains of his city. Harmonising natural sound sources with digital realms, he navigates through minimalism, ambient techno and flashes of dub inspiration. Morin combines these musical ideas with Roland TR-8, 303 emulations, hydrophone recordings and vocal fragments from Tunisia, Morocco and Vercors Massif.

I've not had the mind lately to enjoy a lot of neo-classical as I have in the past. Much of it has felt too pretty, too sculpted, or too formulaic for my taste. Enter Steven Legget's Bathhouse to help me regain some feelings for the genre. Much like Sebastian Mullaert's 'Natthall' (2020), Bathhouse sidewinds through lush textural backdrops, melodies that hang suspended before your eyes, and unexpected moments of rhythm that feel very much a part of the landscape.
