We can’t get enough of the track ‘The Water’ by Feist at the moment.  Particularly in the reconstruction remix format dropped by Ambassadeurs which takes us into some lo-fi beat territory. This mix is silky smooth and deserves to be given some ear time. Awesome audio joy.

But the week was marred by the deaths of Donna Summer, Robin Gibb and Donald ‘Duck' Dunn, all of whom influenced the music you listen to today. So respect their achievements by listening to their legacies at the core of this ...
