GLISTENS a Library Compilation by ED MACFARLANE

Having previously explored the world of 60’s and 70’s library music with their Nuggets, Connectors and Digs compilations, Lo Recordings now brings to your ears the wonders of 80’s library music.

Long derided by those in search of fat beats and funky grooves, the 80’s reveal themselves to be a time of unparalleled musical exploration and invention.

As with all library music, an enormous amount of sifting was needed and the man for the job was no less than Ed Macfarlane of renowned pop band Friendly Fires.

The music contained on Glistens spans a wide range of styles and tempos but all with an unmistakeably 80’s sheen that sounds somehow incredibly current and relevant in terms of today’s producers. Whether it’s the new age soundscapes of Oneohtrix Point Never, the shimmering psych pop of MGMT or the current Vapourwave sound as heard in the dreamy cityscapes of 2814’s ‘Rain Temple’. There’s even a renewed interest in vintage computer game music as heard on DATA Discs reissues such as Out Run by Hiroshi ‘Hiro’ Kawaguchi.
