Cantoma feat Quinn Lamont Luke
Played by: Dj Steef, Chris Coco, Pete Herbert, Juno Recommends Downtempo, Kenneth Bager // Musicfordreams
Review: To celebrate Phil Mison's fourth LP under the Cantoma moniker - an album that took in collaborations with Quinn Lamont Luke, Hush Forever, Suad Khalifa, Apres Midi, David Philips and Luna Asteri - its remixers are equally exciting in Pete Herbert, Ruff Dug and Leo Mas & Fabrice. Ruff Dug simultaneously balances post punk and Italo disco in his melancholic yet wholly uplifting remix, with Pete Herbert heading straight into indie, disco and pop territory that will appeal to fans of a New York City sound. And for something a little deeper house leaning but still loungey, ambient jazz, and groovy - Leo Mas & Fabrice hit the spot!

Review: A single release for this track from 'Into Daylight', the fourth album by chill-out/Balearic legend Phil Mison in his Cantoma guise, which gets served up here in two very different forms. Rudy's Midnight Machine (AKA Faze Action's Robin Lee) takes the dreamy, lounge-y album version and ups the funk factor considerably, dragging its mournful, Brass Construction-like trumpets, sprightly piano notes and chorused male vox onto the disco dancefloor even if the pace remains quite sedate, while Dune People head in the opposite direction, dropping the tempo to a hazy, stoned crawl that's vaguely reminiscent of Groove Armada.

Review: At the time this review was written it's 12 hours until the official release of Cantoma's second studio album! Released on Highwood Recordings, Into Daylight presents the fourth studio LP for Phil Mason's project and second for the label following others on Leng and Horizon before that. With warm touches of Spanish guitar gracing tracks like "Solando", "Road Home" and "Verbana", you'll find cool pop, folk and jazz in numbers like "Another Place" to disco strings, smooth brass sections and African percussion throughout "Kasoto" and "The Mountain". Best enjoyed at Sunset!

Review: If it's ultra-Balearic dancefloor fare that floats your boat, there's a strong chance that your music collection already boasts a number of releases by British veteran Phil Mison. Aside from his pals Mark Barrott and Chris Coco, few have quite as good a grasp of Balearic beats as Mison, something he consistently proves via his productions under the Cantoma alias. He's at it again on "Kasoto", a Flamenco guitar and synth brass sporting chunk of East-West dancefloor fusion that's as Balearic as dungarees, poolside parties and Jose Padilla's ponytail. Mison's own dancefloor-focused Noche Espanola remix, which sits somewhere between early Italian house and post-boogie Balearic disco, is particularly potent. That said, the new age inspired horizontal dreaminess of the Karel Arbus and Eiji Takamusto Remix is also sublime.

Review: Phil Mison returns with another blink-and-miss wax special that takes the name from a medicinal leech. Fitting; one session with any of these three versions will drain you of any ill will or negativity. Rising in tempo and energy from the original across Noche Espanola's remix and instrumental version, this is pure Balearica with its glistening strums, sunset chords and magically scattered percussion. The seasonal timing of this is no coincidence.

Review: If you don't keep a close eye on vinyl releases, you may have missed two stellar 12" singles from Noche Espanola - a dancefloor-focused, mid-tempo Balearic house project from White Isle chill-out veteran Phil Mison. This eponymous first digital download outing gathers together all four floor-focused cuts from those two EPs. First you'll find two versions of "Noche Espanola": the hybrid dub disco/Mediterranean nu-disco cheeriness of Mison's original mix, and an arguably superior Dub revision that smothers an Idjut Boys style bassline in sumptuously spacey chords and synths. "Domino" is also available in two variations: the equally dreamy, sun-kissed and jaunty "Outdoors Mix" and the more robust, percussive and acid-flecked "Indoors Mix".
