Crossing the Atlantic: From Funk to Balearic

Limonadier • Que Tal ep16 • Crossing the Atlantic: From Funk to Balearic

Label favourites Balearic Ensemble return to the fore following last summer’s spectacular ‘Cachonda’ EP, this time with a 12” treasury of wonderful, eclectic dancing music of the highest balearic order. They’re joined by Das Komplex, notable for recent excursions on DJ Harvey’s Mercury Rising, to round out their five-track excursion for the label: this is the Mediterráneo EP.

Opener ‘Pitiusas First’ sets the tone with dizzy, downbeat percussions as a bass guitar skates and glissades underfoot; soaring, starry-eyed synth work and Latin organ stabs in concerto. This homage to the islands and islets of Ibiza comes with a note of melancholy, or nostalgia: waking up to find that your best years might have evaded you - and celebrating the fact. It’s a maturing of the Residentes sound in a way we haven’t heard before; a gorgeous moonlight serenade, the last tango on Formentera, and a tip for orange-tinted sunsets all summer long.

Second track ‘Almendros y Drones’ takes us deeper into the throes of that distinctive Mediterranean sound with dizzying arpeggios and analogue bass over teetering hihats and fizzing synths; it’s an eruptive, volcanic beast of a track that will take liberties with your dancefloor. Over-the-top filter action and driving piano perforations, crashing snares and resonant howls, Almendros, Drones.

The third offering is ‘Mojada’, taking cues from classic deep house with its deep-set bassline and modular squeaks. It’s a slow burner, an aquaplane on Eivissa, cueing 303 squelches and 90s drum machine riffing before its eventual, explosive peak.

After Mojada we enter the chugging, gritty realm of Das Komplex’s remixes. He refashions the heady throes of ‘Mojada’ into a driving, churning unit; percussions, distorted into infinity; basslines bent and buckled into submission; slabs of piano lathered with space echo delay. Wonky late-nite dancing music at its very best.

Extra treat: Das Komplex also left us his ‘Pineapple Bonus Mix’ of Mojada, which is a more sunset-suited affair altogether. This special mix lasers in on that exuberant piano part, then plays with percussions and dynamics to create a full-on dub version of the original track. An essential version from Das Komplex - digi only!

Let’s face it, summer in New York City is sweltering. Even with all the windows open and fans on high, it is hard to find refuge in Alliance Upholstery’s Chinatown offices. Today’s sweat though, is due to the “Dancer on the Shore” EP, the latest release by the Brooklyn based band, Lemonade (Cascine/True Panther Sounds). “Dancer” is a subdued summertime collage of steel drums, buoyant electronic pads and windswept vocals. Joined by Dee Dee from Dum Dum Girls, it is a celebration of the space where humans and nature exist in harmony. Originally released digitally as a single on Cascine in 2015, the band created a DJ friendly extended mix for this release. If you have been to the “Air A Dancer” party over the last few seasons, you have likely already heard it (sometimes twice in one night!). If that wasn’t enough to pique your interest, the remixes put this one over the top. First, the Jex Opolis (Good Timin’/Running Back) Dub picks it up in his Cutlass Supreme (look at his Kingdom, look at his car) with a full day of activities planned. Top down, wind in your hair, cooler full of ice, spf a million; this is Eddie Grant approved dub at beach. Think California Style in Long Island. After sundown, the Whatever/Whatever (Justin Strauss and Bryan Mette) mix builds a bonfire in the dunes. Hard hitting drums and soaring synths make this mix perfect for dancing all night and howling at the moon. As the night gives way to morning, Jex’s vocal remix wipes the sand off your feet, finds your lost t-shirt, and gets you ready for new day.

Quai n° 2

'Downtownsounds Classics Volume 2' is upon us, and with it comes Pablo and Shoey's brand new mix of Dinosaur's 'Kiss Me Again', the famed disco collaboration between Gallery/Studio 54 legend Nicky Siano and avant garde cellist Arthur Russell, featuring Talking Heads' David Byrne playing guitar. 

We used snatches of the song's many percussion breaks to construct a hypnotic new intro and chopped up elements from the original and the more instrumental Jimmy Simpson mix, all the while trying to put the Northern Soul tinged torch song at the very centre of it all. Having guested for Downtownsounds on numerous occasions, Siano worked closely with us on the mix, feeding us new ideas and edits over the course of the many many months of work we put in on this.We're massively proud of the result and we hope you enjoy it too! 

Lovely black 12 inch vinyl with full colour sleeve is scheduled for release 10 June 2013..... 

Design on the sleeve courtesy of DTS resident and all round soundo we call Fanto, get yourself over to fantoraygun.com if you'd like something similarly spangly for your record sleeve, party flyer, wedding, bar mitzvah etc.
