Best Fit Mix #8: Cloud Boat
To coincide with the release of Cloud Boat’s EP Book Of Hours: Remixes, the London duo have put together an exclusive mix of their favourite tracks for the benefit of Best Fit readers.
Featuring cuts from Toto, Actress and Jon Hopkins alongside Cloud Boat’s own tracks ‘Amber Road’ and ‘Youthern’ remixed by The Haxan Cloak and Ghosting Season respectively, the 35 minute collection of songs acts as an intriguing insight into the musical minds of one of London’s most enticing duos. Cop the full track-list here.
Occupying the nocturnal space between the poignant maximalism of Tim Buckley and the codeine beats of Mount Kimbie, Cloud Boat are slowly but surely carving out a distinctive path for themselves as purveyors of gorgeous, shattered-heart soul bar none. The Book Of Hours EP is out now via R&S / Apollo.
