about

The facial treatment rows you out from the smugglers village of Moonfleet along the Dorset coastline and past Chesil Beach into a sea of petals, herbs and oils.

As the boat drifts west, you pass the moonlit Devonshire hideouts of Start Point and Slapton Sands into an ocean of deep, relaxing, healing sleep full of dreams, love and validation, arriving back on prom for a jaunty stroll.

"I grew up within hearing distance of Chesil so making the recording was perfect. When I first had the facial it sounded, just fr a moment, as if the therapist was singing to me." - Mark Constantine

"Validation is about feeling so good about yourself that others think you must be in love. Sirens came to mind and three female voices draw the listener into a sea of dreams and fantasy." - Simon Emmerson
