As we make the trek even further into the cold of the winter season, Porcelain Raft provide the perfect soundtrack with their single, “Big Sur.”The chameleon like Mauro Remiddi sheds a new skin with his latest LP, “Microclimate” scheduled for release via Volcanic Field February 3rd.

The third album marks Remiddi’s first full length release not on Secretly Canadian. Inspiration from the new material stems from visits in faraway lands like Bali, Barbados and Big Sur.

“I’ve always lived in cities where everything is made by humans to isolate yourself from nature, which is a dangerous thing. The feeling I had in Barbados and Big Sur and certain parts of Bali when I went to these places, for the first time at 44, I felt like I was part of them. After always looking at nature from the distance, I was finally connecting with it.”
