is it balearic continue a very fine run of form, with another essential 12 from newcomer aihki, featuring a great rework from canadas hottest disco export eddie c! aihki is a helsinki based duo consisting of magnus blomkvist & tuomas soppela. tuomas and magnus met one dark day at the local zoo engaging in some reindeer spotting. both magnus and tuomas had an enormous love for reindeers and folk music so they decided to form aihki. after extensive crate digging and an endless amount of guitar lessons their first ep was ready. inspired by the bright summer nights and the equally dark winters in the nordic region the sound differs a bit from the traditional balearica. besides aihki, tuomas has the estupido machine and magnus run the nerd network club nights in helsinki. another fine package from iib!

the onset of autumn brings this new release from is it balearic..? recordings head boys coyote. featuring the vocal and lyrical talents of gavin gordon, a madrid based singer songwriter who has previously worked with mock and toof. minamoto is the tale of a 12th century samurai beautifully laid over a heavily percussive and slightly psychedelic disco groove. for the remixes, dj steef creates a more dubbed out 4/4 bouncy synth affair. the hardway bros concoct a proper mid-tempo acid house workout fitting for all the more discerning dancefloors. the third remix from shocks is a reverb heavy breakbeat trip into the darker side of hypnotic balearic/cosmic beats. there is also a bonus track el sueno oscuro a beautifully evocative solo flamenco guitar track by gavin gordon.

man-of-the-moment tiagos new project i-boat captain arrives on is it balearic..? recordings! >slower< is a beautifully smooth & laid back synth journey with added guitar melodies weaving a web of eastern influence while dipping its toes into subtly psychedelic waters. this is sunshine grooving at its best. the backwoods (dj kent) turn in a truly mesmerising remix. hypnotic and dreamy but with added 4/4 kick, this is mellow acid house done exceptionally well.

massive cosmic / disco / balearic edits

the much anticipated follow up to last years balearic opus >panorama suite< by max essa. >heartache (original 86 club mix)< - this funky early nineties inspired house groove seems to be channeling all the best bits of fpi project yet manages to still sound brand new and wholeheartedly relevant. this track is heading for the dancefloor - unashamedly uplifting and funky - a real breath of fresh air. sample free and featuring max on vocals. i challenge you to not move to this. >feel it in your body< is a more chuggy, dubby affair featuring a vocal chant not dissimilar to e-man grooving. funky guitars groove the track along until the synths lift it up to the next level. trancey balearic synth slo-mo goodness.

phoreski, who was the first ever remixer for iib returns to remix >electric sunburst< from the harlyn bay lp, creating a heads down dirty balearic slo-mo basement monster as only he can. next up is tony watson from adult contempory / la who remixes >pacific breeze< adding a touch of west coast b-boy flair. peter visti takes on the not-yet-released track >childhood melody< creating an epic balearic journey starting fairly uptempo before changing gear to groove along at a more leisurely slomo speed. top quality as always. finally, and proving the boys have the jump on tomorrows stars early, the amazing & much sought after aeroplane rework of >too hard<, originally released in 2007. another all round top package.
