Description
2024, 2×12″ compilation, Claremont 56. Limited.
Since launching in 2020, Claremont 56’s Claremont Editions series of compilations has delivered a trio of must-check collections featuring a mixture of unheard gems from the label vaults and brand-new, previously unreleased tracks. The now fourth-in-total addition to the series hears a string of downtempo ditties and Balearic bass-drivers, all of which register as totally fresh productions. In true Balearic fashion, the V/A spans both originals and danceable edits, with Mudd’s ‘Massimo’s Steps’ and Fureby, Moscoso & Faber’s ‘Halcyon’ standing out as the flute-laden highlights of the former camp and the Blank & Jones version of Bel’s ‘Ready To Die’ sticking out in the latter. Sensitive, flute-laden and impeccably crisp, Claremont Editions do a fantastic job here of welcoming both new artists to the family as well as the talents of loyal roster members.
