I’m not exactly sure what a Balearic person is, but I’d like to think I am one. I can even pinpoint the moment it happened. It was 7 AM, and we just got back from Amnesia. I’m on the balcony, amped up and nowhere ready to sleep. I slam Episode 159 of Roger Shah’s “Magic [...]
They say some things can only really be appreciated as we age, like a nice glass of cognac, or a really soft bowel movement.

So I was in the shower, trying to think of a great opener to describe the work of Greek DJ, Kevin Sunray’s latest album, “Following My Destiny”, and couldn’t. I think I wasted an extra 20 minutes of water just from dancing to his tracks. His tracks on this album, which was released May 14 [...]
Alright, let’s get down to business. Whilst going about my daily activities (headphones on, as always) I had an epiphany that should have hit me years ago; the album ‘Safe in the Steep Cliffs’ by Emancipator is amazing. This album has become the go-to soundtrack of my life since its release on January 19th, 2010. I’ve known [...]
I have never met a LUX I didn’t like, granted I usually hang out in department stores and dream of walking out with a YSL leather jacket, but now I’m walking out with a different kind of LUX, and that’s Adrian Lux’ new self-titled debut album. A few months back I heard this song called [...]
