From the sun-drenched coastlines of South Africa to moonlit rooftops in Bahrain, Placid Larry returns with a vivid new chapter in his sonic journey. Infinite Traveller is a 9-track album that meanders through shimmering skies, earthly grooves, and contemplative atmospheres – an aural travelogue for the soul.
At its heart, Infinite Traveller is an invitation: to slow down, to breathe, and to wander freely through sound. Daniel Ray, the mind behind the Placid Larry moniker, distills decades of global experience – from early DJ days in Gauteng to residencies in Europe and the Middle East – into music that speaks in hushed tones and luminous textures.
Each track unfolds like a page from a travel diary written in rhythm and resonance. The album opens with Catalyst, a gentle spark setting the course for the expansive Cirrus, where airy pads drift like clouds across the sky. Kung Fu Martial blends graceful movement with cinematic tension, while Chipmunk skips playfully between glitchy beats and jazzy chords.
Deeper into the journey, Time & Tide flows with quiet resolve, giving way to the grounded pulse of Down To Earth. Ode glows with nostalgic reverence, and Stargaze lifts us skyward again – contemplative, wide-eyed. The closing track, Glorius, wraps the voyage in warmth and wonder, a final breath before the silence.
Previously released as singles, Cirrus, Kung Fu Martial, Chipmunk, and Glorius offer glimpses into the broader tapestry – a sound both deeply personal and universally resonant.
For fans of chillout, downtempo, and lo-fi electronica, Infinite Traveller is not just an album, but a horizon to lean into. It’s a journey without borders – poetic, grounded, and full of light.
