Music / First LookExclusive Stream: Sounds of a Soft-ly Mexican SummerTune in and chill out to Mexican Summer / Software's new summer samplerShareLink copied ✔️July 29, 2013MusicFirst LookTextChristine JunTight Fog Mexican Summer record label—best known for its hands-on sensibility and ornately packaged limited-edition vinyl—teams up with their Brooklyn-based imprint Software Label helmed by Oneohtri Point Never to provide Dazed with an exclusive stream of their stylistic sampler, ‘Tight Fog,” which releases today at independent record stores like Rough Trade. Selling for only £2.50 a pop, its basically an ingenious chance for record buyers to glean an insight into the labels’ output at a recession-friendly price. Spanning early gems by Real Estate and Tamaryn, to more recent releases from Autre Ne Veut and Lace Curtain, the 'Tight Fog' compilation is a diverse, but oddly cohesive look at their journey so far: 01. While You're Sleeping, I'm Dreaming - Tamaryn 02. Uptown Psychedelia - Tim Hecker & Daniel Lopatin 03. Lunar Phobia - No Joy 04. Play by Play - Autre Ne Veut 05. Younger Than Yesterday - Real Estate 06. Death Rock - Travis Bretzer 07. Falling (II) - Lace Curtain 08. Zones Without People - Oneohtrix Point Never 09. Melter's Delight - Co La 10.
