After a killer vinyl debut on Piccadilly favourites Aficionado and a serious sophomore release on Music For Dreams, A Vision Of Panorama returns on his own Mellophonia imprint with six coastal grooves for summer moods. "Floral Rhythm" opens the set with blossoming keys, lilting rhythms and a bouyant bassline, overpowering your senses with the lush atmosphere of tropical horticulture. "Seaside Tune" sees the producer slow the tempo and indulge in a spot of diasporic downbeat, layering the yearning chord progression with a combination of Chinese and Caribbean melodies. Closing the A-side out with the dancefloor in mind, Mikhail delivers "Blues 909", a head nodding fusion of compass point instrumentation and pitched down proto house that'll loosen the early doors crowd up no problems before "Heartbeat" takes the night to its next level. A solid beat underpins layer after layer of killer melody played on xylophone, marimba, guitar and arp, while the irresistible Burrell-esque bassline moves those hips like an orthopaedic surgeon. "Message From Library" follows on with the leftfield funk and steady backbeat you'd expect of a KPM classic, marrying stargazing vocoder with cinematic strings, before the stunning "Mosaic Xylos" closes the set out. As beautiful as its name, this Balearic dream brings to mind "C'est La Oate" and "TV Scene" with its sunkissed groove and future primitive instrumentation. Classy, cool and refreshing, this EP is the perfect soundtrack for summer, and yet another essential release from A Vision Of Panorama.

Prins Thomas - C (I:Cube remix)

As Claremont 56 speeds towards its’ ten-year anniversary, label founder Paul Murphy continues to champion little known producers and previously unheard artists.

Over the past 12 months, the label has showcased material from rising talents such as Bella Figura, Simon Peter, Paraiso and Oma &amp; Amberflame. Now, Claremont 56 is adding another new name to the roster: Statues.

Essex-based trio Bradley Lucke (production/bass/percussion/keys), Mark Crooks (keys/production) and Grant Carruthers (vocals/guitar) has been making music on-and-off together since they were teenagers, and last year decided to come together under the Statues alias. They submitted a number of demos to Paul Murphy, who was so impressed by what he heard that he offered to help produce and write an album with them.

As debut singles go, “Alaula” is stunning. Reminiscent of many softly spun moments from the Claremont 56 back catalogue, it builds slowly and breezily via subtle waves of organic and electronic instrumentation. Carruthers’ impassioned vocals pop in and out of the mix at opportune moments, peeping above alluring acoustic guitar, bass, synthesizer and Rhodes parts. Throw in tumbling, life-affirming piano lines and swelling cello parts – both provided by friend-of- the-family Robin Lee of Faze Action – and you’ve got another near-perfect chunk of sunset-friendly, horizontal brilliance.

On the flip, Murphy dons his familiar Mudd alias to provide a superb Piano Dub. Building the action around a sparse, delay-laden percussion track, Murphy teases out the track’s most potent moments, in the process creating something that lingers even longer in the memory. Lee’s superb piano and cello work naturally takes pride of place, as Murphy expertly emphasizes the track’s impeccably atmospheric nature.

Over the years, Phil Mison has become the go-to selector for those looking for Ibiza-themed compilations. None of his previous collections, though, have been quite as personal as Out Of The Blue, a compilation inspired by his first spell behind the decks at the Café Del Mar in 1993 – and the remarkable chain of events leading up to it.

Mison made his first trip to Ibiza in the summer of 1991 and quickly fell in love with the magical music being played by Café Del Mar resident DJ, Jose Padilla. On his return to the UK, Mison began to cultivate his own take on the laidback, open-minded style, recording mix-tapes of “Ibiza style chill out” tunes to give to friends.

In November 1992, Mison was hanging out in Tag Records, Soho, when Padilla walked in. He plucked up the courage to speak to the Spaniard because earlier that summer Mison had given one of his friends some tapes to take out to Jose in Ibiza so he wanted to see if he had got them. During the conversation Mison invited him down to his next DJ set at Nicky Holloway’s club, the Milk Bar and less than three months later, and clearly impressed by what he’d heard on the tapes, Padilla invited Mison to fill in for him at the Café Del Mar, beginning in April ’93.

It’s that first trip to DJ in Ibiza – a crazy six-weeks spent dividing his time between spinning records at Café Del Mar, hanging out in Jose Padilla’s house in the hills, and meeting some particularly eccentric White Isle residents – that proved the inspiration for Out Of The Blue.

The compilation contains a mixture of records that Mison played in his earliest Ibiza sets, those that remind him of that period, and recent discoveries that boast a similarly warm, loved-up vibe. Mison is at pains to point out that it’s not a track-for-track representation of his first sets, but rather a collection inspired by this most momentous of experiences.

As you’d expect from a selector of Phil Mison’s standing, Out Of The Blue is an outstanding collection. Some will no doubt hear the influence of his mentor – the man he credits with effectively turning his DJing career around – in the undulating rhythms and new age melodies of Kamasutra’s “Sugar Step”, the meandering synthesizer solos and Spanish language vocals of Congarilla’s sublime “Sacred Tree”, and the lilting flamenco guitars of “Gambarra”, an unreleased mix from Mison’s popular Cantoma project.

Elsewhere, listeners can marvel at the starry ambient bliss of Belgian legend Frank De Wulf’s “The End”, recline to the saucer-eyed fusion jazz of the Christoph Spendel Group, shuffle along to tactile, hard-to-find period deep house from Language, Moodswings and Don Carlos, and marvel at The Cactus Rose Project’s ridiculously rare “Jelly”, a sparkling, disco-era jazz-rock outing partly inspired by the Doobie Brothers’ “Long Train Running”.

Out Of The Blue may well be a very personal selection of tracks celebrating a moment in time, but it’s happily one that we can all enjoy.
