Favorite track: The Ocean Inside - Full Mix Side A.
Get your hands on this audio delight. A very limited edition of 100 cassettes.
The Ocean Inside was recorded alone during a particularly long and dark winter voyage. A dose of flu helped create a deep dream state, sometimes unsettling at others blissfully narcotic. The analog tape recordings were later cut and spliced together with occasional overdubs of guitar and vocal to form a collection of celestial tone poems that at times recall early Eno, Vangelis, Joe Meek’s ‘I Hear A New World’ or even Aphex Twin’s selected ambient works.

Captain Sunshine is the alias of Jon Tye, one half of revered cosmic quakers Seahawks. The style shares many of Seahawks deep space aquatic vibes but is if anything even more salt washed and faded, spaced and misted.

Deep and meditative, warm and enveloping, this is a great album to put on of a clear evening as you stare at the stars, watch the distant ships bobbing on the waves or simply zone out in your favourite place.

Fresh is one way to describe this album, because no matter how many times I've listened to it it remains so. Cobby has a way of making music that truly lingers with it's efforts and originality unfurling in layers. Just great smooth music across this masterpiece. VUKARI
