Album Review: Cloudwalker by Cabriolet Paris Feat. Lake Jons
If you’re into that smooth, dreamy electronic vibe with a touch of Progressive House magic, Cloudwalker by Cabriolet Paris (feat. Lake Jons) is one of those albums that kinda sneaks up on you. Released back in 2019 under the UK-based label Colorize, this record feels like a warm hug for your ears—especially if you're vibing late-night drives or just chilling at home pretending you’ve got life figured out.
The title track, Cloudwalker (Extended Mix), is where the album really shines. It’s got this hypnotic beat that builds up slow and steady, layering in these lush synths until you’re fully submerged in its groove. What makes it stick? Probably Lake Jons’ vocals—they float over the music like whispers from another dimension, adding this haunting yet comforting edge. You don’t even realize how deep you’re into the track until it’s fading out and you’re like, “Wait…what just happened?” That’s the kind of journey we’re talking about here.
Another standout is Cloudwalker (Original Mix)—yeah, they kept things simple with the naming, didn’t they? This version strips things down a bit compared to the extended mix, but don’t let that fool you. The stripped-back elements give the melody more room to breathe, and it honestly feels like watching clouds drift across the sky. Like, yeah, you could listen to it while working, but it’s also perfect for zoning out and staring blankly at walls. No judgment.
What I love most about Cloudwalker is how it doesn’t try too hard. It’s not flashy or loud; instead, it lets the music do all the talking. And honestly, sometimes that’s exactly what you need—a little escape without any fuss. Oh, and fun fact: every time I hear this album, I get cravings for coffee. Not sure why. Maybe it’s the whole “UK vibes” thing?
Anyway, if you haven’t checked out Cloudwalker, do yourself a favor and hit play. Just maybe grab a cuppa something cozy first. Trust me, it pairs well.
