Balearic Beat! This is more of a 'day after' mix, downtempo, maybe something that would have happened at Cafe Del Mar, after the night before at Amnesia. Consequently, it's pretty laid back. The mixes aren't too hurried. It's a relaxed, summery one to enjoy with a few San Miguels in the sun.

So what is Balearic Beat?

I've heard that "it's music that makes you feel good, makes you smile, and has no pretensions to be anything else. Big pop records and very underground stuff put together - the Ibiza sound"

Wikipedia says that it "initially was an eclectic blend of DJ-led dance music that emerged in the mid-1980s. It later became the name of a more specific style of electronic dance music that was popular into the mid-1990s. Balearic beat was named for its popularity among European nightclub and beach rave patrons on the Balearic island of Ibiza", "Balearic beat records vary between house or Italo house and deep house influenced sounds and a slower R&B-influenced (under 119bpm) beat consisting of bass drum, snare, and hi-hats (often produced with a Roland TR-909 drum machine) programmed in certain laid-back, swing-beat patterns; plus soul, Latin, African, funk, and dub affectations", "Vocals were sometimes present, but much of the music was instrumental. The sounds of acoustic instruments such as guitar and piano were sometimes incorporated into Balearic beat."

The sleeve notes to the 'Balearic Beats - Vol. 1' album from 1988 reckons that "for joe and the yet uninitiated, balearic is the following and much, much more..... loads of hugs and kisses ... smiley t-shirts and happy faces.... feeling saucey instead of sauced......eating fruits on the dance floor....bashed up converse trainers.....lovely girls with blinding accents.....ice pops.....hedionism....sparklers at the future....indian belly dancers at the shoom....almost everyone finally realising that "only love can conquer hate"....watching the sun set at the café del mar....watching the sun rise on primrose hill....the karma collective....poncho's pony tails and body paint....dj alfredo....new friendships....loads more hugs and kisses....just let this piece of warm anglo-ibizan club culture rush over you, enjoy it mateys!!!"

That kinda sums it up!

FINNEST music presents Trust Me by Sergio Parrado, Le Brousse, and Baru (PA), an impressive EP featuring remixes by Sergio Bennett and YORY. Trust Me is a cultural clash where you can find Latin American and European influences that make this release something very special. The originals feature Trust Me and Tesis, two tracks with a very distinct and sophisticated deep progressive edge. For the remixes, we find Sergio for Trust Me, adding a more house-like touch, and YORY for Tesis, with a more underground feel.

ENJOY!!
