Release Date: 2 August 2010
The new mix collection Future Balearica is a summery sonic adventure through the world of 21st century chill out and warm laidback sounds. It effortlessly captures the original spirit of Balearic whilst drawing on contemporary Indie, Dance, Disco and Folk influences. Including such acts as The XX and Animal Collective Future Balearica re-interprets the original ethos to deliver a seamless pastiche of sound that serves as the perfect backdrop to this summer.
The people behind the much-loved ‘Future Disco’ compilations bring you the inaugural mix of a series that encapsulates the essence of musical freedom intertwined with the warm glow of sunshine. Future Balearica picks up the Future Disco mantle that had previously left critics astounded…Super Super – “Utterly Superb”, NME – “fresh…theatrical”, and Mixmag – “An excellent collection”.
Arranged by production duo FETE (one half of which is Sean Brosnan of Future Disco fame), the core aim is that of delivering an instant slice of summer through tapping into the emotional idiosyncrasies a listener has when they ‘feel sunshine’. The compilation sets itself up as the perfect companion to a blissful summer – whether that is at a BBQ or on a hazy Monday morning.
