Prolific UK deep house hero Andy Compton is back on his fabled Peng stable with a new project entitled Blue Dream, and an album called California Dreaming which unsurprisingly deals in gorgeous sun soaked tones aimed squarely at the loungey end of his plush, melodic repertoire. From the slinking funk of -Betsy- to the low-slung beats and smooth-as-silk bass of -Disco Baby,- Compton shows himself to be completely at home rolling at this kind of tempo, no doubt projecting himself to the Malibu beach idyll you can see on the cover. Music so radiant, you d best slap on some sunblock.
