The very nature of this subject means that all Blog Posts are relevant to the creation, building and foundation of what today is globally sanctioned as the Rave Scene. The word Rave actually predates the 1980s, some believe it was brought to the UK by members of the West Indian community in the 1950s. So for us this term had no connection to what was formulating in Europe.

loves & respects to OAKEY, THE RAMPLINGS, GARY HAISMAN, JOHNNY WALKER, STEVE PROCTOR, NANCY NOISE, and to all those out there who truly "shoooom!!!" Reynolds, Simon. Generation Ecstasy: Into the World of Techno and Rave Culture. Routledge. 1999. ISBN 0-415-92373-5. The style of Balearic beat is described by its inventors, as opposed to its UK followers, as the ability for the DJ to play across a broad range of styles, from early minimal New Beat to the first extended remixes of pop-songs, making Balearic DJ sets those that tend to have the sharpest turns of musical direction. While the public outside Ibiza generally describes Balearic beat as a music style, the island based community regard Balearic beat as a non-style or a healthy disrespect to style conformity and a challenge to the norm. It's a freestyle expression that seamlessly binds sporadic vinyl inspiration through technical flair on the turntables. Today, due to stylistic segregation in electronic dance music, few promoters and DJs dare to stretch the spectrum of styles that far in fear of losing identity and clients. DJ Alfredo still heralds the most diversity among Ibiza DJs, but generally the approach to mixing as well as the terminology, have been swallowed up by the Chillout scene. Spektrum are one of the more known names popping up on this exclusive compilation and here we see DJ Cosmo get to grips with the gorgeous vocal refrain of ‘Fit Together’ and then we have Lullabies in the Dark getting their lips around an ice cold , staccato funk-filled ‘Estrella’ whilst Igor Skafar aka Ichisan gets his retro-futuristic-space-funk together on the sublime ‘Radar Pulse is Sent’.

Ibiza is still considered by some to have its own "sound", however, including the music of Jens Gad, co-creator of Enigma, and his new chillout-world-influenced hybrid project, Achillea, recorded in his studio in the hills overlooking Ibiza. [43] Compilations such as Global Lounge Sessions: The Balearic Sound of Ibiza, released in 2002, and Sequoia Groove's Buddha-Lounge series, continue to be released. [44] These generally feature house music and certain downtempo selections, not the old style of Balearic beat, per se. Some prefer to use the term Balearic more generally, however, to apply to all of these styles. [45] See also [ edit ] A Second Summer Of Love". The Observer Music Monthly.
