Oops, just found that the catalog number on the cover is shown as BORDM1189, seems should be 50 years later, the wages of the cover designer should be deducted haha. @Grant Trowbridge
By the way, the catalog number of @Jetflag's new EP is shown as BORDM120.
I’ll let Rob know haha. Seems someone snuck in the extra 8.

By the way, can you also inform Rob that Universe EP is still not on streaming platforms? Once said that it will be on at the begining of 2025, but seems he forgot that.

Very lovely! Sounds like it was co-written with Lolo (Airwave), which is always a compliment. Happy vibes! Nice to hear Coredata making something more melodic and happy.
There might indeed be a bit of a fight at some frequencies but I don't mind it at all. Doesn't exactly hurt my ears, and it's lovely music after all.

Everything about this is simply excellent. It's the kind of track you want to plan a whole set around.
It’s on his list to sort, it wasn’t delivered to streaming sites for some reason.

Sorry, I don't think I fully understood this sentence. So will it be on the streaming platforms in the future?

Lovely summery track - i agree the Bandcamp sample sounds bad compared to Youtube. They should sort this issue out.

Nice track. Some more breathing room for everything might make an improvment, there's a lot going on.

I found that there was a Jam & Spoon track with this name, such a beautiful track. Is this your inspiration of this track? @Coredata
And I found that there is a Bandari cover of it, also beautiful. By the way, I didn't find a video of the Bandari cover on YouTube and it seems that they are not popular there.
Anybody here know Bandari? They are very popular in China, and seems to be the enlightenment of New Age music to most of Chinese old generation, and also me. Their beautiful piano melodies take an important part in my childhood memory, so surprise to see this cover.

Really catching. Probably one of my favorite Coredata track of the year.
I would give a 8.5 or 9/10.
It really fits the dreamcore aesthetics, so dreamy and ethereal!
(In the Chinese language, I would say) it is as light as a feather. It flies along with the wind, and my own mind flies along with it.
But I'm personally more familiar with the Chinese style of dreamcore. which features old photos, and city/life 20-30 years ago.
Some features of the city back then is now gone and nowhere to be found, and this is much common in a society developing so quickly like China.
So this track make me reminds of my own life as a kid. It is giving me many retro and nostalgic feelings.
I really enjoy the breakbeat intro, which brought me quickly into the atmosphere.
The first main part (of the extended mix) is too lengthy for me, I would feel better if it is one minute shorter that the current version.
The drop from 04:52 really blows my mind, and the breakbeat part and the two breakdowns has made the track even better.
Compared with "Talking Waves", this track shows how Coredata style combine with major key / dreamy vibe, while the latter is a perfect example of maximalism and shows how well he is to innovate and to harness his characteristic sounds.
I like both tracks. "Kaleidoscope Skies" has much simpler structure and fewer elements, but it is still better in my opinion.
I have played this track before its official release (see here), and I am planning to remix some other track into the style of this one as my first try when I become a producer in the future. This is the amount of respect I pay for this track.
I did feel something odd about the mastering of the track, but I didn't notice it until I started to mix this with other tracks (such as Hydra - Crystalline).
