Every sunset, people gather at Café Del Mar to be hypnotised by a unique sunset dj mix, staring dreamily out to sea. Cafe Del Mar volume 29 ,once again encapsulates this mystical experience, beginning light and airy with Eric Hilton, “Corazon”. Progressing to darker, bassier sounds like Chris Coco and Kiko Navarro to represent the sun falling behind the horizon. It creates a spellbinding atmosphere by placing oddities such as the mystery of the Bulgarian voices, Lisa Gerrard, Finland \u0026amp; Aaskoven, alongside dance tracks that take inspiration from world music and new age (ethereal female vocals; bongo-lead percussion; samples of self-hypnosis tapes, flutes; wave-sounds). Highlights include the resonant piano and strings of Boddhi Satva\" Fading to Silence” and Gabriel Brasil “Midnight Meeting”.  The sky fades to black with the gentle ambience of Café Del Mar Volume 29.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRacks\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCd1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEric Hilton Ft.

It’s called \u003ci\u003eSoundtrack For An Empty Room\u003c\/i\u003e and keeps it cookin’ off 2016’s \u003ci\u003eStill Life Of Citrus And Slime\u003c\/i\u003e and 2017’s \u003ci\u003eDichotomy Desaturated\u003c\/i\u003e. Moothart is a frequent contributor on many of Ty Segall’s solo ventures but also as a co-conspirator in bands like the blazing jam unit Fuzz, and a fantastic monster of a group called GØGGS, which throws Segall and Moothart in with Chris Shaw of Ex-Cult. Something that’s immediately apparent on this album is that it’s a harder record than its predecessors. The shift isn’t subtle but it is tremendously cool. A lot of the material was written while Moothart was on tour with Segall and working on the GØGGS Pre Strike Sweep album. The first two CFM efforts gave Moothart the experience to work effectively on his own in the studio, the live shows infuse this with the confidence and attitude that comes from a lot of nights playing where there are no second takes. It is an exciting follow up and further proof that Moothart is one of those people with a lot of music in him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"In The Red","offers":[{"title":"Black | LP","offer_id":50441761096011,"sku":"1066206","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/44d9d92a-3d3a-441d-9c0e-01b12408c413_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726986495"},{"product_id":"still-life-of-citrus-and-slime","title":"Still Life Of Citrus and Slime","description":"\u003cp\u003eCFM is Charles Francis Moothart. He has been making records for the past decade, playing various instruments in various bands - bass in The Epsilons, drums in The Moonhearts, and guitar in The Ty Segall Band and, most recently, Fuzz. Still Life of Citrus and Slime is Moothart's first solo effort and it's a great one.  Moothart says, 'Still Life of Citrus and Slime' - the idea of creating something outside of the comfort zone. Blending basic elements of necessity, release and escape. An attempt to fuse reality with the elusions of the possible. The music represents an elevation beyond the barriers of linear motion and self-doubt. It is similar to looking in a mirror and realizing that time trails itself constantly by just a millisecond. You cannot kill time, and you cannot exist on both sides of the reflex. Yet, to bridge the gap is to eliminate instinct and output in their purest forms. \"This record is a portrait of a person navigating the mechanics of two distinct machines. The first—the brain. The second - the Tascam 388. Eight tracks and a quarter-inch path to maneuver to the summation. The songs simmer from rare to well done. No matter the cut, the meat is fresh and still vibrating with life. \"Fast, slow, wonky and straight. There are moments of everything in these grooves. At times it feels like it could come apart at the seams, but it doesn't. It grabs the thread, bites the end, pulls it tight and continues the experiment. It's rock 'n' roll, and that's all. The greener grass is browning on the other side. The drought is here to stay. The only way out of this mess is to put your head down and do the right thing. Keep moving, keep trying, keep creating, and project any positivity possible. Of course it is much easier to succumb to the wolf. Just forget about it, and pretend it is out of your control. Thankfully the wolf let down his guard. Having found refuge in a blanket of heartache and a bottle of wine, he took a cat nap in a manger of confusion.\"LP - With Download.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"In The Red","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50441771221323,"sku":"399398","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50441771581771,"sku":"399399","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/0634fb3a-1016-4d1f-ab15-d92029a94447_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726986717"},{"product_id":"dichotomy-desaturated","title":"Dichotomy Desaturated","description":"\u003cp\u003eTrust is hard, but trusting yourself is harder. Are the decisions you make the right ones? Is it worth taking risks if there’s no one around to talk you out of it? Is it brave to follow your arrow without knowing where that arrow will lead, or is it better to exercise caution? L.A. punk shredder Charles Moothart wrestled with some of these quandaries while making his second solo album under the CFM moniker, \u003ci\u003eDichotomy Desaturated\u003c\/i\u003e. “I love working with other people,” he explains, “But there’s always been that side of me where I’ve wondered, “Can I do this without having someone tell me that it’s acceptable or good?’” Suffice to say, he pulled it off, and with aplomb, too. This latest release is a toothy, swirling collection of songs that captures a variety of sonic moods—raucous, pastoral, pensive—while retaining an indelible melodic punch. The Laguna Beach-raised Moothart first picked up a guitar at 12years old and got behind the drum kit for the Moonhearts at the age of 16 with fellow Cali six-string ripper Mikal Cronin. Since then, the 27-year-old journeyman has become a fixture in the West Coast community: he’s logged oodles of studio and stage time with Cronin and Ty Segall—both on his solo albums and as part of the ultra-heavy supergroup Fuzz, the latter experience driving him to make music on his own. He struck out on his own with 2016’s solo debut, \u003ci\u003eStill Life of Citrus and Slime\u003c\/i\u003e; a year later, he’s back with this, which marks the first time Moothart’s written songs for the specific purpose of compiling them onto an album. This album embraces relative quiet alongside hardcharging riffs and bursts of incendiary color— there’s plenty of face-exploding moments on \u003ci\u003eDichotomy Desaturated\u003c\/i\u003e as well, a sense of mischief that is nonetheless serious as all hell. Just listen to the record— the choice is obvious.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLP - Tip on Gatefold Sleeve with Download.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"In The Red","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50483610091851,"sku":"1008301","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/3b29d3ea-1857-4575-bd07-0bd2b465960a_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727570323"}],"url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/collections\/cfm-2.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
