Kupla "Mirage" (Instrumental Album)


Kupla is a producer based in Helsinki, Finland. I was big fan of his earlier releases, "In The Forest We Are Wizards" and "Gravy", among other beautifully crafted instrumental projects. Mirage boasts 10 of the finest lo-fi beats, filled with a mix of emotions flowing smoothly together. When I'm working or driving, I throw on his instrumentals and just vibe out: the calming piano-driven instrumentals offer a wide range of emotional content. You can hear the clarinets dance in tandem with orchestral instruments, relaxing field recordings and soft bass lines. NineToFive also shares: "Mirage can refer to optical illusions caused by weather conditions, but also a wish or hope that cannot be achieved. But even a mirage starts with an idea, a thought, and having that seed planted is everything. No matter how impossible the wish may seem, the 1st step has already been materialized." Listen to it...
