Toronto production duo Southern Shores stepped up as one of Cascine Records' earliest acts, helping establish the NYC label's affinity for a dreamy, summery aesthetic with a pair of EPs at the turn of the decade. Four years since their latest release, they've recently resurfaced to unleash their debut album Loja that continues to explore a shimmery, tropical, windswept groove for an ideal end-of-summer vibe. Their exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World fittingly carries a breezy and sun-kissed touch throughout, accented by some of their own unreleased tracks alongside top-shelf selections from Sade, Leon Vynehall, Mark Barrott, John Beltran, Mariah, Ada, and more.
