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.

The Cactus Rose Project - Jelly

'Nyako' is 7th vinyl release at On the Corner and it's a big one. South African producer 'Behr' created 'Nyako' together with Makadem during a Santuri Safari session at Sondeka Festival in Kenya. 
The E.P is 4 cuts that build in brilliance from the original which has extremely broad appeal. Indian producer 'Daisho' delivers a straight ahead 4 x 4 house groover, south-London production duo Modified Man swing their analogue machines into action for a heady synth adventure, which is just a bit broken. Berlin-based duo of Dirk Leyers and DJ Nomad (Hans Reuschl) are the ideal pairing to merge technology and tradition together as AFRICAINE808 bring up the rear with a balearic sensation to round off the EP. 
Makadem is a talented musician and vibrant performing artist from Kenya. He's a figurehead of the Benga scene in Nairobi. His stage presence and powerful vocal delivery, had him likened to the legendary Fela Kuti. Makadem innovates by bringing traditional African instrumentation, story telling and contemporary production methods together.

Ahead of my gig at the Jazz Cafe, I thought i'd make Mother Theresa available as a free download until 25th August. Recorded in Havana, Cuba 2015 and released as part of the Highlife World Series pt 1  :)

"The highlight for us is Auntie Flo’s ‘Mother Theresa’, a lazy track with a free-flowing melody. Subdued compared to the others on the EP, the smoky jazz influence is unexpected, with a wandering trumpet introducing itself halfway through. As the track’s soft pads and percussive textures build, you’re caught up in the spiralling solo and the track’s brassy crescendo."

<b>Juno Plus review</b>:
As the name suggest, The Saint Petersburg Disco Spin Club was born out of Russia and the longwinded alias gives Francis Inferno and Deep Space Orchestra's a run for their moniker money. The Can't You See Me EP for Italian label Glenview Records represents the mysterious producer's first record of the year after a prolific 2012 and leads with a psychedelic and pitched down tenor on "Cant You See" that's not to dissimilar from Tornado Wallace's earlier Balearic works. It sees lazy hi-hat scrapes and thickly struck bass stabs hold down a funky and vocal groove. The dry pitter-patter drum beats of "Tender Melody" move to meet filter-delay horns which are reinforced by a complimentary bassline and vocals of dainty swoon. Two cuts for the early hours of a lazy afternoon.
