This is Volume Two of a compilation series inspired by the visual setting at Sheer Rocks, an idyllic open air restaurant on the West coast of Antigua. Volume One, released in 2016 (SLM 003CD), was a compilation of music that gave a sonic window into the venue and its surrounding views and atmosphere. For Volume Two, Alex and Kate Rocks have worked alongside chill-out legend Afterlife to build on the success of Volume 1 with a new set of atmospheric gems. The selection opens with the chuggy, acoustic bliss of Micko Roche's "Bleu" and then immediately the tempo drops for a vocal treat from Neve with the track "Sun Ray". Next, Ambala, aka Phil Mison, delivers a more percussive sound this time with an African twist. Afterlife steps up with "On Being" before making way for DJ Pippi's reggae tinged "Mr P". DF Tram, Mashti, and Kid Stone keep things cool before Mike Boorman's "Consequences" switches things up. Bongo Entp's cover of Henri Mancini's "Lujon" is included with Green Carrot delivering a remix that's strong on mid-tempo Balearic shuffles, leaving the way clear for No Logo and another appearance from DJ Pippi, this time with JL the opening party favorite "Dangerous", before the album closes with "Dollybird" from Bent producer Simon Mills.
