Alek Lee, the distinctive producer, DJ, and multi-instrumentalist who debuted on 〈Antinote〉 and has also released works on 〈Multi Culti〉, follows up his critically acclaimed 2025 album *Cold Feet* with his latest release, *Blue Bird*, on 〈Isle of Jura〉. Underpinned by a Balearic atmosphere, this highly anticipated release marks his most personal work to date, delving deeper into a dub-oriented sound. 180g heavyweight vinyl.

The opening title track, “Blue Bird,” features Keren Ilan, a singer originally from Vietnam who is now based in Israel, and traces the emotional journey from heartbreak to healing. From there, the album unfolds as an eight-track collection that fuses an organic, analog-driven sound—achieved through a composition process that eschews computers—with a Balearic sense of floating, all under a theme the artist describes as “a strange state of mind and dub-oriented emotions.” Starting with a first half swaying to bluesy guitar, the second half casually traverses elements of house, downtempo, reggae, and left-field pop before returning to dub. A unique sonic journey that is quietly intense. (Original Japanese text by Adachi)
