All Day I Dream is ready for a triumphant return in 2022 with the latest edition of its Winter Sampler series. A Winter Sampler IV features tracks from Tim Green, Sébastien Léger, LEGATO, Öona Dahl, and more, and conveys the imprint’s ability to fuse thoughtful sonics and melodic production intended to transcend dancefloors moments to something more.
This year’s A Winter Sampler IV is loaded with sixteen disparate offerings that showcase the magical ethos of All Day I Dream. From the moody aesthetic of LEGATO’s ‘If I’ve Got You’ to the shimmering synthes of Nathan Katz’s ‘Voices,’ All Day I Dream’s vigorous appetite for introspection and copious ability to curate lively dance tunes is felt throughout the project.
Sébastien Léger & Tim Green kick off the Sampler with ‘Iso,’ which debuts a buoyant energy invigorated by crisp plucks, energetic percussion and a tantalizing grooveline. From there, the project leads listeners into more melodic moments like those found on LEGATO’s “I’ve Got You.” Traumhouse’s “A Hopeful Place” keeps intact the compilation’s chilly atmosphere, before deviating to offer the contrast of meditative and merriment sound design.
ADID mainstay Zone+ chips in with the minimal track, ‘Leviathan’, as well as producer Öona Dahl (‘Reverie’), who last released on the label with 2016’s Let the Light In EP. The project is rounded out by Micah, whose track, ‘In the Shadows ft. Kiki Cave,’ blends late hour sensibilities with heartfelt melodies to leave listeners with glistening lyricism and reflection.
All Day I Dream has pioneered a whimsical and melodic style of house music that has made a massive impact on dance music as a whole – developing a sound that has helped the genre move beyond the clubs and into open-air, daytime parties. Melodic and Organic house have since become their own genres on Beatport and many other labels have followed suit sonically.
All Day I Dream is currently celebrating its 10th anniversary of events and curation. The label’s ethos has always come from a place of love, freedom, creativity and beauty – pioneering a whimsical and melodic style of house music that has made a massive impact on dance music as a whole. Melodic and Organic house have since become their own genres on Beatport, and many other labels have followed suit sonically. Bringing together like-minded artists who make and play gorgeous music, as well as a beautiful community of dreamers, All Day I Dream has led the way in inspiring the path that many others continue to follow.
Now, the illustrious outfit is calling those seeking a new kind of experience, and its first-ever camping event. On May 12-15 2022, All Day I Dream will take over the lush shores of California’s Woodward Reservoir in Oakdale, California, with four days and three nights of DJ sets, live music, yoga, and more. ADID’s typical one day show curation will transcend for a weekend concentrated on wellness, and inspiring all who attend to dream.
You can now listen to the full premiere of Legato’s track ‘If I’ve Got You’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
