All Day I Dream bids farewell to another radiant summer with its Summer’s End Sampler, a 12-track collection of deep, melodic, and transportive sounds. Carefully woven together from a mix of rising favorites and emerging talents, the compilation encapsulates the warmth, nostalgia, and new beginnings that arrive with seasonal change.
The sampler opens with the groove-laden ‘Funkinmusic’ from Sydney’s mredrollo, quickly establishing its balance of playful energy and emotional depth. Next is Amand’s moody late-night cut ‘In The Dark’ and ‘Sixth Sense’, a heady collaboration from London’s Cameron Jack and ABEL.
German music maker SaPu shifts the mood with the percussive pulse of ‘Gyal Got Moves’ and the journey continues with Caribbean beatmaker Disalazar and Natasha’s enchanting ‘Child Chants’ followed by Still-Life’s introspective ‘The Sound Of Herself’. Córdoba bred duo Nacho Varela & Cruz Vittor illuminate the dancefloor with ‘Bright In The Club’, paving the way for VICTHOR’s sunrise-ready anthem ‘The Dawn’.
On the final stretch, Argentinian newcomer Facundo Leiarz and progressive producer Shayan Pasha deliver the stirring ‘Leave It On’, which moves into ‘The Youth Substance’ from Portugal-meets-Netherlands pairing John Woods and Noraj Cue. Australian-born, New York-based Aldous carries the emotional current further with ‘Silhouette’, while London-based duo Nichols+Roark’s ‘Melodica’ closes the compilation on a breezy, wistful note.
From sultry grooves to reflective melodies, the Summer’s End Sampler embodies All Day I Dream’s timeless ability to soundtrack both celebration and introspection. Stream All Day I Dream’s new Summer’s End Sampler out now on all platforms.
