Blue Daisy - FACT Mix

Sorry no tracklist.  Don't let that deter you though.  Its dark and moody but there are definitely some gems on here.

Hit the jump to read FACT's short bio of the North London producer.  If you like what you hear in the mix, check out his album, The Sunday Gift (I've included one of my favourite tracks after the jump), which follows much in the same vein.  

"Hailing from North London, Blue Daisy hasn’t released much – until this year’s debut album, The Sunday Gift, he’d put his name to four singles and one split, all on Black Acre – but he’s made it count, quietly honing a smoky form of pop music that owes as much to back room ’90s icons like Portishead, Tricky and, going further back, the Cocteau Twins as it does the structural freedom of Flying Lotus and Samiyam’s twisted hip-hop.

The Sunday Gift is, frankly, the best thing Blue Daisy’s done by miles. A mostly collaborative project, it finds him assembling a small team of trusted vocalists and neatly sidestepping the beat scene or dubstep associations that some cast on him; unlike the work of many of his peers, this is genuinely dark, harsh music that barely makes sense outside the night hours, and Blue Daisy doesn’t need to sample speeches from sci-fi films to prove it."
