gemma cullingford returns with “the island” — a slow-motion shimmer of sun-faded drums, layered vocals, and balearic calm.

a real banger, i’ve basically booked my flight to ibiza before the second chorus.

written and produced herself, it’s a subtle, synthy exhale built on a teenage engineering drum machine and the hush of minimal retro textures. think kelly lee owens if she swapped the club for the coastline.

there’s something gorgeously understated about this – no peaks, no drama, just a steady groove dissolving into the horizon. and i love it. very cool build, and i love the breezy, dreamy vibes.

thank u for making this gemma cullingford x
