Part 1 > Laid back soul ices down a steamy August night, music for a backyard lit by a glowing pool. Abstract library funk gives in to synthesized beats before diving into chill mode. Check Sly & Robbie’s monster bassline cover of Don’t Stop the Music, and a new boogie twist from Bugz in the Attic.

Part 2 > Synthetic funk and gauzy dub sounds gradually subside into abstraction. Newer goodness from BoC introduces boogie electricity from NYC courtesy of Larry Levan via Tony Paris, Environ, and Rheji Burrell out of apartment 3A. Burial’s deep night horns and scattered snares make way for relaxed favorites, with Kit Clayton providing the ultimate hypnosis.
