Sunshine Philosophy

This is really beautiful. It's "Sunshine Philosophy" (Rob Da Bank & Chris Coco Remix) by Future Loop Foundation. I just downloaded the song in iTunes, but the video on YouTube impressed me so much that I wanted to post it here. Here's the info:

"‘The Fading Room: Memories and Remixes’ is constructed using recordings from family interviews that have laid dormant in an attic somewhere in the north of England for almost a quarter of a century. Amassed back in his childhood days, the vocal snippets document a simpler existence, when family took pride of place in the carefree mind of a teenager. Barrott has assembled a highly personal and organic album around these speeches using electronic and acoustic instruments as one to present a synth-centred orchestral album that sparkles with originality and wit. Indeed ‘Memories’ achieves an intriguing balance between conjuring up a series of snapshots of a nostalgic past whilst being wholly contemporary in musical vision, whilst ‘Remixes’ features reinterpretations of the Fading Room tracks by cutting edge downtempo producers, including Rob Da Bank, Chris Coco and The Go! Team".
