Hello and welcome to ITB, and to kick this new year off we have a real treat for you. We’re thrilled to share this vinyl only exclusive guest mix from our friend and one of Brazils finest DJs and producers D sounds. This is his NY gift to you guys, and in his words;

“I employed a pair of Pioneer PLX 500 turntables along with the DMJ 350 mixer, crafting a unique sonic experience. The vinyl records that accompany each beat were carefully sourced from European stores, exclusively for this show, ensuring a special and authentic musical selection.

All of this work was captured with passion and dedication in my studio in the vibrant city of Belo Horizonte, Brazil. I hope that the combination of cutting-edge technology and handpicked vinyl, translates into a memorable auditory experience for all of you.”


I’ll be back later this month with the regular show, but for now tune in, kick back and enjoy…  

Peace out and HNY to you all.

Is this Balearic? - February 2024

Exclusive Guest Mix - Sparkless:

Alexander Khomenko, better known as Sparkless among electronic music enthusiasts, was born on August 9, 1982, in the cultural hub of Russia, Saint Petersburg. Unlike many musicians whose love for music is innate, Alexander's passion for music developed gradually. It's challenging to pinpoint the exact moment, but it was the discovery of records from England and Italy that ignited his interest. As he matured, Sparkless began composing and curating music himself. However, he temporarily veered away from music composition by the late 90s, immersing himself more as a music connoisseur.

His journey into DJing was serendipitous. While signing up as a fan of a particular DJ on a music website, he stumbled into DJing, experimenting with mixing tracks. This newfound pursuit captivated him, becoming a steadfast passion that he continues to pursue, delighting his audience with fresh mixes consistently.

Sparkless has since become a prominent figure in the music scene, authoring over 150 music reviews in his homeland. For the past eight years, he has consistently ranked among Russia's top 100 DJs on the country's premier music platform.

Describing the music he champions as an "intellectual and emotional cocktail with deep philosophical undertones," Sparkless gravitates towards genres like Deep House, Nu Disco, DNB, Soulful, Atmospheric Breaks, and House.

A versatile DJ, Sparkless holds residencies at Alchemist Bar and Mantra Club, showcasing his talent across various venues.

Now out on the Real Balearic label: 

Press release: This three track EP release starts with the original mix. Here were step slightly out of our chillout Balearic bpm zone for a swaying-summer-beach-disco groover. Water-skimming guitar chops, smooth grooves and sun-drenched beats are the order of the day. It is clear to see why this mix was the set opener for the recent Nang Records "Beach Disco" compilation.

Slowing things down to a more traditional Real Balearic pace next, the Bristol UK based Situation crew dust down the bass guitar and set it firmly to the slow low and chilled preset. The sultry vocals shine through on this mix.

Jamie himself closes off the EP with his own chilled out version under the moniker of 'Sophrosyne'. It's a classic sound straight from the Cafe Del Mar comp playbook. Smooth pads, shimmers and whooshes and sparkling arpeggiated synths float over and inside the mix. Very smooth indeed.

Summer 2019 - Part 02

José Padilla, Spanish DJ and producer sadly passed away on 18th October this year. A true loss for the Balearic scene and music as a whole. He took over DJ residency at Cafe del Mar in Ibiza in 1991 and compiled the first Cafe del Mar album for the React label in 1994. Listening to that album for the first time changed everything onwards for me. Unbiased, unsnobbish, non-genre specific music that encapsulated a moment. A shared experience. A sunset. A community of like-minded people. A gathering. The legacy of Cafe del Mar, cannot be replicated. It'll never happen again. 

It wouldn't have felt right to have a show that plays with the question of what Balearic music is and what it isn't without tipping our caps and paying tribute to such a legend. I've kept this tribute mix to an hour, but seriously, it could have been three without trying. 

The last track is a remix José created for The Korvids, of their track, Beachcoma. I was fortunate enough to also share my remix duties along with José on this track. Something that I am incredibly humbled and proud to have been a part of. As far as I know, it was his last remix. 

RIP Sir. And thank you. The sunset won't be the same.

José Padilla Tribute Mix

Is This Balearic? - José Padilla Tribute Mix

Remix of Max Vertigo's track 'Save You'. Remixed and repackaged with mixes from Anturage & Lessovsk, HUD and of course, my good self! Available from all of your friendly local download shops!


Max Vertigo - Save You (BlueAzure Remix)

BlueAzure is the pseudonym of musician and producer Jamie Bridle, based in the South West of the UK. His music blends sun-drenched melodics with electronica — somewhere between deep house, nu-disco, and chilled-out Balearica.

His tracks are made for daydreamers, early risers, night walkers and balcony drifters — music with heart, for moments that don’t need a name.

BlueAzure has released on labels including Nang and Real Balearic, and hosts the monthly show Smiling at Strangers on London’s Totally Wired Radio — a soft-focus trip through oddball grooves, happy accidents and lo-fi tenderness.

He is also one-third of the long-distance project Editoric, formed at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios alongside lifelong collaborator Tim James and Toronto-based artist Lavinia Maria.
