DAWN AGAIN — All Day I Dream About Schooners EP

Dawn Again follows up 2025's definitive pubwave classic, Lost In The Front Bar, with his All Day I Dream About Schooners EP, another journey into ambient breaks and tripped-out rhythms.Melbourne producer Nick Verwey is in a red-hot run of form on Hell Yeah, and it all started with 2024's Every Dog's Hotel, an album that introduced the world to his sun-faded, lo-fi grooves. Known as "pubwave", it's a cosy, human sound that drifts through downtempo and hazy house while encouraging nostalgia, romance and daydreaming as time slows to a halt.This latest collection kicks off with 'Vibe Fertilizer,' a Sunday-slumber of lazy dub and murmuring spoken word that brings on the relaxing effect of a first pint before you've even ordered it. After that, 'From Where You’d Rather Be' is a gentle invitation to start moving amid the sun's warming rays, with blissed-out chords and a distant vocal bringing heavenly deep house feels. 'Hazy Pale' is a smoker's delight with a new age breeze washing over comedown breaks and synths that appear and disappear like a mirage. Closer 'A.D.I.D.A.S. (All Day I Dream About Schooners)' is a loved-up cuddle that suspends you in pure melodic drift, and you'll never want to leave.Four tracks, zero hurry, maximum schooners.
