Island Lantern Festival by Tony Frissore is a warm, transporting groove that glows without shouting.

Tony Frissore is an independent artist, producer, and groove-driven composer who is recognised for his skill in blending international influences into chill electronic soundscapes. Raised and educated in Boston and New Orleans, he developed a deep affection for funk, jazz, and jam sessions through improvisation before he got a taste of the club scene in Europe. His productions have been broadcast on major networks worldwide, which proves his skills in creating mood and rich instrumental pieces.
Island Lantern Festival first of all captures an utterly pure atmosphere and then almost instantaneously goes on to make the audience feel as though they are sitting beside a tranquil ocean at night.
The delicate sound of waves washing the shore and, far off, seabirds give a very cinematic vibe long before the rhythm at the core of the track slowly becomes established. Supported by a warm lo-fi base and a rhythm that seems quite naturally pulled out of the air. The bass is playing a very hypnotic melody that glows and is hovering gently above the rhythm. Lovers of soft electronic music as well as present, day instrumental tunes of a groovy style would undoubtedly have a lot in the way of the past works to revisit here as the single slowly but surely gives a second chance after a first listen, with its intricate details and a comfortable easy flow for night, time replays, fitting perfectly for reflective moods and calm rest, arts, both for this very moment of the season and for times which are going to come after the present one today to listeners all over the world.
