He reworked these tracks into one long piece of shimmery soundwaves. Cameron explained that, round the time his first child was born, he recorded some tracks which he liked to call ‘sleep loops’, pieces of either guitar, electronics, ukelele or music box that were used as lullabies for his daughter. Not only does our first email date back to autumn 2008, it explains this release a good deal. While typing up some text to accompany this release I looked up the very first few e-mail conversations Cameron and I had about a release on Slaapwel Records. Sleepy fun.'Īnd that is still the philosophy of Slaapwel Records today. 'I love their music to death and I think they are all very capable of making wonderful sleep-inducing songs. All artists are various people he met through the years, different yet all connected with their unique talent, yet all very good at making 'boring' music. He asked them to write a sleep-inducing record, he listened to it, and when he failed to reach the end because he fell asleep, he released it as a musical record. So he set out, looking for people that would be good at making mind-soothing songs. He figured it would be good if there was more music that soundtracks the thin border between being asleep and lying awake, deliberately choosing the sleepy side of things. Wim Maesschalck aka Wixel, who started the label, often found himself lying awake in bed, not sleepy enough to fall asleep, not lively enough to keep doing stuff. Slaapwel Records is a small record label specialized in music to fall asleep to.
