Delivering another selection of chill melodic cuts, Purified Records presents Purified Fragments XXIII. Crafting a scintillating soundscape with intricate percussion and smooth vocals, Adam Nazar’s ‘Omens’ sets the compilation’s tone. Flowing into Curt Reynold’s ‘Rolling Heart’, listeners are drawn into an instrumental arrangement that ebbs and flows with a steady groove. Closing the EP with Rïa Mehta, Sean Ae, Jack Willard’s ‘Moments’, the producers craft a sonic journey across different heights and textures, completed by Samanta Liza’s majestic vocals. The Fragments XXIII artwork highlights a photograph of a turtle, captured by Daniel Nicholson. Sea turtles are known for their long migrations, often traveling thousands of miles between feeding grounds and nesting beaches, as well as their critical role in maintaining healthy marine ecosystems by grazing on seagrass and controlling jellyfish populations. Global citizens can help turtles by reducing plastic waste and keeping beaches clean, as turtles often mistake plastic for food and can get entangled in debris. Supporting conservation programs and protected nesting sites ensures turtles have safe environments to lay their eggs. Additionally, advocating for laws that reduce bycatch and implementing turtle-friendly fishing practices can significantly decrease the number of turtles accidentally caught in fishing gear.
