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.
