Vancouver Sleep Clinic Lung (Nubbz Remix)

I very recently stumbled upon Vancouver Sleep Clinic, but it's been a swift and passionate love affair. A few weeks ago, they released the lovely track "Lung." When this ambient remix landed in my inbox, it was an instant favorite of mine.

The repetition of the piano riff throughout guides you through waves of distant vocals, acting as a meditative and hypnotic focal point. The regularity of the rising and falling reminds me of the fluctuation of the ocean or slow breaths; rhythmic and necessary.

This remix of "Lung" also shows a softer side of Dutch producer Nubbz, who's opted in the past to apply his delicate piano melodies to hip-hop tracks from Nas, Flatbush Zombies, and Childish Gambino. I personally like this direction, hopefully we'll see more in this vein from him.
