  • John Beltran will release a new album, First Blue Sky, as Placid Angles via Magicwire this March. The double LP is the Michigan producer's first release as Placid Angles since 1997, when he released a sole album on Peacefrog, The Cry. There's not much information about First Blue Sky, though clips imply the project picks up where it left off 22 years ago. It follows a recent Beltran EP for Wewillalwaysbealovesong under his own name as well as the launch of a series of EPs dedicated to the seasons of the year, released via his own Bandcamp. Last year, Beltran disputed the Peacefrog reissue of his classic 1996 LP, Ten Days Of Blue, eventually self-releasing it for free digitally with proceeds going to charity. Listen to clips from Placid Angles First Blue Sky.
