Under the A Vision of Panorama alias released some of the most beguiling nu-Balearic. One of the most respected name in the global Balearic scene skipping rocks across water and moving through an amazing and different philosophy. Drawing on sun kissed synthesizer grooves, languid nu-disco and hazy pop for inspiration. A Vision Of Panorama have the kind of quintessentially inviting sound that by rights should find him soundtracking every sojourn from the swanky lounge bar to the sunkissed terrace, no matter the crowd. If you already dig the Panorama sound, you know what to expect. Plush, symphonic synth tapestries dripping with good vibes and accomplished musicality.
Review: Russian Balearic beats specialist A Vision of Panorama (real name Mikhail Khvasko) has recorded deliciously sun-soaked music for plenty of labels over the years, though he seems to save his best for boogie and synth-funk revivalists Star Creature. Here he drops his third EP for the popular imprint, and predictably it's another very strong showing. Opener 'Piano Sunset' is simply sublime: a colourful, sun-bright slab of Balearic boogie brilliance smothered in colourful FM synthesiser melodies, jaunty keyboard riffs and mazy piano solos. 'Lost In Palms', meanwhile, sees the St Petersburg-based producer effortlessly join the dots between Balearica, jazz-fusion and jazz-house via loose-limbed jazz breaks, warming bass, kaleidoscopic synth stabs and snaking solos aplenty.
Review: We've got here an exceptional talent on display with this third release from Fusion Sequence, a label renowned for curating mesmerizing deep house tracks. This remarkable compilation is a true gem for enthusiasts of the genre. "Biorhythms" by The Variable Club sets the perfect ambiance with its warm and dynamic sound, making it an ideal choice for intimate backroom moments. A Vision Of Panorama captivates listeners with "Kissing The Sun," enchanting them with lush chords and ethereal keys, creating a truly mesmerizing experience. Following is a darker and more introspective tone with "Many Stories," a track that demands your attention and delves into deeper sonic realms. Common Mode brings back the blissful and feel-good grooves with "Bassface," ensuring a joyful and uplifting experience. Closing the EP is Body Corp's "Take It Or Leave It," a seductive and slower-paced composition that captivates with its irresistible allure
Review: Fusion Sequence is a new offshoot from the Mellophonia label that kicks off with a heavyweight release both literally (it's out physically on 180g vinyl) and metaphorically. It features different artists offering up one track each on what is a widescreen exploration of fresh deep house. They are A Vision of Panorama, Eternal Love, Pool Boy, Wolfey, Laseech and Larry Quest, and between them everything from cuddly depths to more moody late-night deepness is covered on an EP that brings plenty of new perspectives. A fine inaugural release, then.
Review: Mikhail Khvasko's previous album as A Vision of Panorama, a self-t17 set, was described by our sister site Juno Records as a "true soft focus sonic safari", with colourful instrumentation and a notably starry mood. This belated full-length follow-up is equally as warming and sonically kaleidoscopic, with Khvasko cannily combining vibrant melodies, dusty drum machine beats and saucer-eyed chords on tracks that frequently blue the boundaries between hazy deep house, bubbly Balearica, horizontal nu-disco, acid-flecked downtempo grooves, jazz-flecked slo-mo soundscapes and meditative ambient. In other words, it's an another entertaining, ear-catching set that should suit all those who love cultured electronic music and immersive dancefloor workouts.
Review: For the last five years, Mikhail Khvasko has been offering up warm, woozy and sun-kissed music as A Vision of Panorama. The producer's latest missive - his fourth release for Mellophonia - is every bit as melodious, life affirming and listenable as its predecessors. He first joins the dots between bubbly synth-funk and sun-kissed Balearica on "Delicious Saw", before layering more vintage-sounding synthesizer lead lines, jazz-funk bass and an ultra-warm groove on the equally attractive "Lum". "Euphoria" is, if anything, even more positive in its dreamy, synth-sporting approach to musical pleasure, while "Fourth" is jazz and squelchy in the best possible way. Attractive, grown up synthesizer music for lazy afternoons and sweltering evenings.
Review: Mysterious Russian producer A Vision Of Panorama returns with a brilliant full length release fooling up great efforts on Music For Dreams and Aficionado. Expect lo-slung, retro flavoured nu-disco with a brazen display of Balearic flair. Starting out with "Back To Elba", a groove which is cool as a cucumber, there's more mellow dancefloor stuff such as on "Barbados" or "I Saw The Wind" which call to mind Max Essa, Fabrizio Mammarella or even Lauer at times. Combined with sombre yet romantic pop ballads such as the haunting "Duality" featuring some gorgeous vocals or "Surf Blue" calling to mind Gaussian Curve: this is a truly wonderful album.
Review: After completing a hat trick of essential releases with "Seaside Tune", Russia's king of lilting melodies, coastal flavours and sunkissed sounds returns with his latest must have release. Back once again on his own Mellophonia imprint, A Vision Of Panorama invites us aboard his luxury yacht for a carefree journey across the ocean. Opening with the animalistic chatter of the Brazilian cuica and a chirping synth melody, "Two Birds" instantly transports us to tropical climes where the breeze plays among the palm trees and the clear waters kiss the white sand. Title track "New Horizons" sees the tempo drop to a languid strut as the fretless bassline takes our dancing bodies under its control. The bright tuned percussion, misty pads and mystical woodwind offer light and shade at the top end, while that Balearic beat should keep the dancefloor moving. As we follow the suns arc onto the B-side, A Vision Of Panorama turns up the heat and the tempo for the beachside proto-house peach "Coastal Waves".
