Sunsets and Sublets

It took Regularfantasy (real name Olivia Carman) almost three years to make a follow-up to her superb 2015 debut, Born On The Weekend, yet this sequel to her comeback 12″, Tales From a Plush Palace, has appeared within three months of its predecessor. Sunsets and Sublets is a typically colourful and herb-powered affair, with Carman and collaborators (old pal Sophie Sweetland and Hashman DJ being the highest profile) laying down cuts that variously mix and match elements of bumpin’ U.S garage, blazed Vancouver deep house, loved-up synth-pop, sunset-ready slo-jams, horizontal ambient mood-scapes and lo-fi R&B.
