VISIONS OF LIGHT — Mycelium Bloom LP

Visions of Light – Mycelium Bloom LP arrives on NuNorthern Soul (catalogue NUNSVOLMBLPV) as a 12-inch vinyl that deepens the trio’s Balearic-dub aesthetic. The record follows the 2025 debut The Mandela Vortex and builds on the recent Dedications EP, offering a blend of downtempo dub grooves, sun-kissed Balearic textures and psychedelic electronic flourishes designed for both twilight listening and late-night dancefloor journeys. Within the NuNorthern Soul catalogue, Mycelium Bloom joins a string of 2026 releases that showcase the label’s taste for atmospheric dance music. Earlier this year Balaphonic delivered the Organic Matters EP (NUNS082V) and Lonely Deckchair issued the eponymous LP (NUNSLDLP001V), while Lewis contributed Summer Selections Six (NUNSSS006V). The label’s recent history also includes Coyote’s The Higher The Sky, The Deeper The Ocean EP (NUNS076V) and earlier titles such as Maarten Goetheer’s Suite For Chick feat. Pong Nakornchai (NUNS066V) and B.j. Smith’s Marina Del Rey & Big Sur (NUNS057V). Mycelium Bloom sits comfortably among these releases, extending NuNorthern Soul’s focus on immersive, groove-centric electronica. Side A opens with “Split The Scene”, a track that sets a spacious tone through acidic electronic loops that orbit a languid beat, establishing the record’s low-tempo, dub-laden atmosphere. The follow-up “B Town (Edit)” returns to the trio’s roots with a warm, summery skank that evokes a late-summer beach vibe, while “Radiant Flux (Edit)” pushes further into Balearic dub territory, layering immersive textures that invite a deeper groove. The side closes with “Perfect You (Edit)”, a sunset-ready highlight featuring a melodic line that drifts over a deep bass foundation, its gentle progression making it a natural bridge to the B side. Side B begins with “All The Best Things”, a nod to early-’90s chill-out rooms, where desert-blues hints mingle with hazy ambience, creating an enveloping atmosphere suited for relaxed set moments. “Hope Street” continues the journey with a subtle, rhythmic drift that maintains the record’s hypnotic pulse. The penultimate track “Let Go” leans into pure Balearic bliss, its slow-burning ambience and delicate melodic phrasing offering a calm release before the final statement. The record ends with “Holding Jupiter (Edit)”, an expansive, psychedelic closing that layers effects-laden guitars and low-tempo rhythms, leaving a lingering sense of orbiting depth. For Visions of Light, Mycelium Bloom marks a continuation of the trio’s evolution after The Mandela Vortex, expanding the palette introduced on the Dedications EP while retaining the signature downtempo dub groove. Within NuNorthern Soul’s output, the LP reinforces the label’s commitment to atmospheric, dance-floor-compatible electronica that balances melodic depth with rhythmic subtlety. From a DJ’s perspective, the record offers a range of entry points: “Split The Scene” and “All The Best Things” work as mood-setting openers, “Radiant Flux” and “Holding Jupiter” provide deeper, more psychedelic moments for late-night sets, and “Perfect You” and “Let Go” supply melodic peaks that can be layered over warm, sunset-time vibes. Collectors will appreciate the cohesive sequencing and the way each side balances introspection with groove, making the LP a versatile addition to both crate-digging and live performance. The release is pressed on 12-inch vinyl, matching the format expectations of NuNorthern Soul’s catalogue and delivering the analog warmth that complements the trio’s textured soundscape.
