Balearic is a word which few people really understand. It can mean whatever you want it to mean, but it has always been vaguely associated with Ibiza, hippies, deep tropical dance music, and British football hooligans who grew hair, showered less, and became DJs. But forget those 90s British for now, there that feels better! With this special release, which we have kept quarantined on its own TuningSpork Extra label, we are bringing you that Balearic vibe with a deep and dubby 00s house music twist. And for us, this is THE record of the summer.
So prepare yourself for a massive collaboration project from the Social Beings. This is not some duo you've never heard of, in fact it's label boss Jay Haze (Fuckpony/Bearback/Krak Street Boyz) and his friend, modern day techno legend Ricardo Villalobos. What can you say about either of these two guys that hasn't be said, apart from making up something like "Ricardo Villalobos eats anchovies for breakfast" or "Jay Haze's best friend is a very old African woman". One piece of information which is true, unlike those ones, is that Haze and Villalobos are now huge figures in the house and techno world. And they are indeed Social Beings.
