The second installment of Daydreaming‘s series, Soundscapes & Emotions, Vol. II, was released in December 2025, further developing the label’s signature blend of mood and progression. Ornery opens the compilation with ‘Contours of Tomorrow,’ following his previous contribution to Vol. I. As a Berlin-based producer, DJ, sound engineer, and co-founder of the live techno group SPHR, Ornery is known for progressive house tracks that emphasize precision and depth rather than dramatic peaks, a style well suited to this release.
‘Contours of Tomorrow’ immediately introduces deep, repeating grooves, refined progressive structures, and moments of introspection that maintain interest through subtle variation. Dynamic rhythms, captivating arpeggios, and a strong bassline create a sense of euphoria. The track serves as an ideal backdrop for sundowners at a beach bar or an open-air event, offering a lively yet authentic energy that uplifts the mood and sets the tone for the compilation.
The compilation also features Burnside, Sahara, FVBLS, Astroknots, Accinelli, Strobetek, Inertia, Solstice, Diality, and additional artists such as TERZ (DE), ARAA (DE), and DIVIDEDBYZERO, all exploring textural builds and narrative-driven sounds. Soundscapes & Emotions, Vol. II is cohesively curated, showcasing international talent dedicated to progressive house that prioritizes atmosphere and lasting impact over quick drops.
