Mine’s a Dão. What’s your wine choice? Accompanying music from Lower Bridge – Red Wine FM #Chill #Instrumental #HipHop

It’s the weekend after a challenging first post-transition week. Time to kick back (hopefully) with a glass of red. My choice this week is Dão and to accompany it Portugal’s Lower Bridge.
Lower Bridge is Lisbon-based member of the Lo-fi Clouds collective and the track is Red Wine FM. It comes with the accompanying instruction that this is a, “tune for the wine and/or beat lovers.” I score on both so this is just perfect. There’s some old school crackly beats. All slow and lazy. And on top is a piano chord that rolls around with the merest ‘Ahhing’ of vocal. It’s all kept simple, low-key and subtly effective. Kick off your shoes, pour yourself a large glass, and chill. He says, “ideal for sipping on your favorite Pinot Noir or Bordeaux.” I’d say stick to something Portuguese.
