Programmed To Love

Samples of obscure 70s easy-listening records and forgotten lounge tracks form the backbone of this downtempo classic. It manages to feel both deeply nostalgic and playfully futuristic, anchored by the hauntingly beautiful vocal performance on the standout track Swollen.

Released at the height of the early 2000s chill-out movement, the production relies on clever tape loops and warm, analog textures. The record perfectly captures the mood of a late-night living room session, blending melancholic melodies with a distinct sense of British wit.
