[LP] SALT... meets ISLAND CAFE -DEEP BLUE-

⚪︎The new release in the popular compilation series "SALT... meets ISLAND CAFE," curated by beach lifestyle magazine/media "SALT...", is "DEEP BLUE," the first-ever ambient music compilation. With the title "DEEP BLUE" evoking the deep, tranquil blue of the ocean, it offers calming music that modern lifestyles demand, encompassing chill-out, Balearic, meditation, and healing genres.

⚪︎Ten artists, highly trusted by discerning listeners in the ambient, chill-out, Balearic, and surf music scenes, have created original new ambient tracks under the theme "DEEP BLUE." From artists active since the 90s to cutting-edge trackmakers, a magnificent "ocean"-themed ambient album has been completed.

⚪︎Mastering was handled by the ambient/Balearic genius Calm, who also contributed music to the album, resulting in a perfect soundscape.

⚪︎The artwork features an artistic photograph by Brazilian-born, Japan-resident surf photographer Pedro Gomes, designed by Masato Maekawa (tAnkers inc.), a designer with a wide range of experience from apparel to outdoor goods, expressing a sublime world view under the supervision of "SALT...".
