Catching Flies (formally Rainman) is one of our biggest recommendations for 2013.

The London producer’s downtempo approach to mixing a love for minimal electronic, hip hop, soul, jazz and the sounds that connect them in his production effortlessly stirs your unconscious emotions.

Having found him this summer through his mesmerising remix of Coldplay’s ‘Yellow’, Catching Flies has just released his breath-taking debut The Stars.

A stunning, super-chilled four-track EP full of awe-inspiring production including the best free download you will have had all year.
Lead track ‘Stars’ is potentially our favourite for its heart-stopping pace but the hair-tingling remix of folk/electronic band Mt. Wolf’s latest single ‘Life Size Ghosts’ is something to truly sink into.

You can download The Stars EP from Facebook or Bandcamp, and find more info on his website.
