Les Gordon

There's nothing more satisfying than hearing something as beautiful as this accompanying a lazy Sunday sunset. This wonderful blend of folk & electronica comes from French artist Les Gordon, who released an absolutely glorious EP earlier this month (of which this track is taken from).

Drops

If there was ever a track to say 'welcome to British summer time everybody', I think this would be it. This is the new release from Drops, it's called You Have My Word and it's coming out at the end of the month on a DIY label from my home town called heat death records. It's such a pretty track fitting in nicely somewhere between the happy folky vibes of Stornoway and a more English-y Summer Heart, with a bit of Tunng thrown in there for good measure. Good mix yes? Though I am avoiding the term 'folktronica' as much as possible, that's pretty much what it is. Stream the track below and see what you think:
