I'm loving the sound of this EP by While My Sequencer Gently Weeps, it's called Emotional Icecream and hits all the right deep and dubby spots. Shame it's vinyl-only.

The ten best Boards of Canada Tracks, according to Lone. Quality selection with meaningful reasons. I like that he included a BOC remix (Beck's Broken Drum) in there too. FWIW, my fav BOC remix is Sisters by Odd Nosdam.

Six Tracks #12 - this cosmic selection is for getting the party started.

1. Nala Sinephro presents her take on cosmic Ambient Jazz on Space 8, a monumental 17 minute track that hovers and delights. Taken from her album Space 1​.​8 on Warp
2. Mong Tong's Earth is more cosmic Ambient music, this time with guitars and chiming synths - quite beautiful! Taken from the Orientations album on WV Sorcerer Productions
3. London boys Arcsec have had a strong debut year with many memorable tracks, working to a melodic House theme. Meridian lifts the pace and eases us onto the floor
4. From my new fav label Höga Nord Rekords, Fontän's track Svett (from their upcoming EP) picks up the cosmic vibe and soars
5. Another new one from Höga Nord Rekords, The Idealist uses Acid and Dub on Universal Lover for the rhythm but it's the catchy vocal sample that ties in the cosmic theme nicely
6. On This is not a test, the bold beats from Martyn Hare may be floor-focused but the circular melody and whirring synths suggest your trip has started. Taken from upcoming EP Bruit Majeur on Tripalium Corp
