Review: File Under Balearic Gabba marks the inaugural release in a promising series of DJ tools, encompassing remixes, edits, originals, and licensed tracks, adorned with distinctive artwork by PlanetLuke reimagining the Balearic Gabba logo. Helming the debut are core Hell Yeah artists, with SIRS, aka Daniel Klein, kicking things off with a Berlin-infused take on Caramel 3000's "Super Rapido", a nine-minute odyssey blending kosmiche chug and tropical percussion. Japanese downtempo maestro Calm follows with his Mellow Mellow Acid Dub of Sergio Messina & The Four Twenties's "Sometimes Remember", a nostalgic acid daydream and a fitting sunset soundtrack. Feel Fly contributes an Estatico Danzante Remix of Pedro Bertho's "Tornei", elevating the EP with twinkling keys, dusty breakbeats, and warm, worldly vocals. The final act is DJ Spun's It's Rong Remix of My Friend Dario's "Acid Mosquito in a Summer Night", a nine-minute exploration into jungle humidity, tribal percussion, and a spooky lead synth over lurching drum breaks.

Review: Italian Balearic specialist My Friend Dario has an album due on Hell Yeah! Recordings, but before that drops the label has delivered this tidy taster. 'Marittimo' is typical of the languid, subtly jazz-funk-influenced end of the Balearic spectrum (a sound beloved of many Italian producers), with lovely electric piano motifs and marimba melodies reaching skywards towards the sun over Afro-influenced percussion and a jaunty bassline. Berlin-based Canadian Eddie C delivers a more up-beat remix, adding winding TB-303 acid lines, cut-up electric piano stabs and undulating lead lines to a pots-and-pans percussion workout that's alluringly loose and energetic. Top stuff all told.

Review: Fresh from releasing the genuinely brilliant - and super-Balearic - Cosmic Sailing EP on NuNorthern Soul, Italian producer My Friend Dario makes his bow on Hell Yeah! Recordings. While both tracks on offer are hugely atmospheric, immaculately produced and genuinely immersive, they're undeniably far more dancefloor-focused (or, at least, rhythmic) than his previous output. 'Desertica' is particularly special - a droning, moody and surprisingly psychedelic chugger in which echoing percussion hits, moody electronics, spacey acid lines and delay-laden synth motifs ride a North African-influenced house groove. In contrast, 'Sunset Outro' is relatively light and airy, with squally, psychedelic guitar sounds, TB-303 lines and elongated chords stretching out across a looser groove.

Review: Four tracks from Italian producer Dario Aieello's recent 'Cosmic Sailing EP' get the remix treatment. As with the original EP, the clue's in the title: if you're looking for peaktime stompers you'll need to look elsewhere, but if you're in seach of drifty, evolving cuts to soundtrack voyages through inner space, look no further. 'Storm' and 'Malvasia', remixed by James Bright and Blair French respectively, keep things super-chilled, Willie Graff's rub of 'Fenice' adds a lil' Spanish flavour, but for sunny afternoons spent slow-groovin' on an Ibiza terrace (if only!) Hot Toddy's remix of 'Neve Su Acireale' is the one.

Review: Lifting his alias from a Vitalic track released back in 2005, My Friend Dario returns once again to Italy's Hell Yeah label. The Catania-raised producer sends in a hell of a distorted guitar, soul and disco ballad that's big on tropical vibes and balearic spirit in "Montalbano" while heavier new wave and Italo-inspired sounds find their way to "In Gola". That distortion returns in "Salamon's Son" once again though this time it's coated over synths and keys alongside snapping drums machines, sultry vibraphones and sexy subbass. We wanna go to Montalbano!
