Nueva Forma Listening Pleasures Bonuscast No. 1

Recently, The Bear And The Sea made an 8tracks mix (now featured on the home page of the 8tracks!) called Retronautilus, described as “[a] mix of refined pleasures [i]nspired by the moonlit, foggy coastline along Highway 101 and beamed straight into the tape deck of your 1981 Ferrari 308.” In response to its warm reception, The Bear decided to expand the mix with additional tracks and samples and turn it into what we’ve coined a Bonuscast — an additional mix thrown in alongside our monthly Listening Pleasures. We hope you dig it. (And be on the lookout for episode 24 curated by IG88 later this week!)

After a longer-than-anticipated hiatus, we’re back with episode #21 curated by Wolfe+585. This is a summer soundtrack, a vindication of love, an expression of heartbreak. Despite the description, it’s still a poppy, upbeat mix featuring artists such as Cant, Keep Shelly in Athens, Class Actress, Selebrities, The Bear and The Sea, and more.

Curated by A Gap Between, Episode 20 is like a long-due vacation, if only a short one. Straight from the horse’s mouth:

This particular episode is a soundtrack for an imaginative getaway from the dregs of stress and heartache. And although I probably can’t break away from my routine anytime soon, I think this mix will certainly allow for a great escape in and of itself. I hope it provides the same escape for you.

Arriving with Episode 18 of Listening Pleasures, Miori presents us with an eclectic but refreshingly uncomplicated mix of his recent synth pop and downtempo inspirations. Blending obscure talent and close colleagues with seasoned and established artists, this mix glides high above the noise and the clatter, providing you with the perfect autumnal transition into the winter months. Woody opens up during a hypnotic trance, Dandelion Council floats your speakers, and the Little Dragon Remix is sexy as hell.

Episode 14 is curated by the ever-eccentric Creta. About his mix, in his own words:

After The Bear and the Sea killed it with his latest podcast, I knew I had to up my game. I pulled some gems out of the past and mixed them with a few newer tracks I’ve been digging and came up with this nice little podcast. From the minimal techno of Zofa to old-school IDM from Planet Boelex, the digital beauty of MHV and the organic ambience of Paq, this mix is a journey into possibilities.

A Gap Between - Neon Signs

Blackbird Blackbird - Hawaii (The Bear and The Sea remix)

Episode 13, promised two days ago, arrives a wee bit late, but hopefully the lovely tunes will make up for our tardiness, and not to mention, the two awesome free tracks by A Gap Between and The Bear and The Sea. Things have been crazy here this month, albeit a productive kind of crazy, and that’s the way we like it, for the most part. It’s probably why Wolfe+585 opted for the kind of mix that one could most certainly relax to (and sometimes even dance to), all of which could be described as a sort of squishy, nostalgic bliss.

In just a few short weeks, Creta (formerly known as White Car) will have a new full-length release out titled Closing the Doors of Perception. In leading up to this, we’ve invited him to curate the latest episode of Listening Pleasures. It’s surely a signature Creta mix, a mix that’s a bit more experimental than previous episodes, and includes not only three of his older tracks, but gorgeous cuts from iameb 57 and Lapse. A few words from Creta about his episode:

Herman Melvile once said “the eyes are the gateway to the soul.” I’ve always felt music in general, but even more specifically electronic or alternative music was another one of those gateways. These tracks represent a few of those gateways, portals into a world not far removed from our own, and yet seemingly unfamiliar. A glimpse into the world of another lost soul.

Filled with gleams of stuttered beats and haunting ricocheted melodies, our beloved Creta (aka White Car) reveals a darker side of Nueva Forma with his own curated mix of Listening Pleasures episode #04.

Kicking off this eclectic mix is our very own psychoacoustics analyst, Dr. Erroneous. It took some arm twisting for him to agree to participate in this episode of Listening Pleasures, but once he got started he couldn’t be stopped.

Throughout this episode, you’ll find yourself taking part in a series of sound experiments by Dr. Erroneous. So lock yourselves in, and let the Listening Pleasures possess your ears.
