Bestimix 71: Ulrich Schnauss

As any of you who delved into the Ambient Forest at this year's Bestival can attest, we're big fans of dreamy mood music here at Bestival. Which is why we're excited to be able to present an exclusive Bestimix from one of the genre's true legends... Ulrich Schnauss. Combining multilayered synthesizers with beats & ethereal vocals, the German producer's music is at once both uplifting & otherworldly. "I've always used making & listening to music as a way to escape, putting on headphones is a great way to leave reality behind for a while, reminding yourself why it still makes sense to carry on." Perhaps still best known and loved, for his brilliant album 'A Strangely Isolated Place', Schnauss continues to keep us smiling with his melodic electronic odysseys. A new album is set to come soon, but for now, do as the man himself would, pop on your headphones, leave reality behind & drift away to the lush sounds of our latest Besti-mix.
