2020 will be remembered as the year that the entire world was on lockdown, with almost the whole population locked up in their houses, producers have seen in their studios the best way to escape this tragic situation. MPC's, Drum Machines and Synthesizers have been (and still are) like time machines that along with their creativity have built new dimensions far away from the currently reality and where they have found their own personal freedom. MM Discos is glad to introduce you this compilation where most of the tracks were created during this hard times of Covid-19, and that joins homies and forthcoming featured artists to the label along with some well respected artists from the downbeat-balearica scene. An amazing trip to a "not-forbidden" paradise created from the home studio. Starting with a small ambient appetizer signed by "Modern Obscure Music" capo Pedro Vian, the album dares to explore different styles, turning more tropical with the works from Rompante and Document Swell to something more floor oriented with the tracks from LuKKas and the one from Da Silva, one of the thinking heads of MM Discos. Barcelona's based producer Mateis E. Aquir does his thing producing something more organic and selvatic while "Is it Balearic?" recording commanders Coyote put the album in a Leftfield-Dub-Rastafari mood. Tribal italian maestro Josè Manuel does what he knows best and signs a very personal, ethnic and dreamlike work. On the other hand, Portuguese producer Jepe imprints a magical and dreamy touch in the compilation followed by the laid back style from greek balearica devotes Bonnie & Klein that will bring us straight to the Cayman Islands, and last but not least, this amazing Neo-Funky styled cut from Russian's hero Volta Cab.
