You can’t mention the name Balearic Gabba Sound System without people responding „What? Who?“, followed by a good laugh and a „Such a great name!“. Indeed it is. It sums up what it’s all about: choosing the balearic path for playing the unpredictable sound in a winking package.

The Balearic Gabba Sound System is a non-sense dream team founded by Marco Gallerani aka peeDoo, and made up of Enzo Elia, Everest Parisi, E-the-Hot, Bjørn Torske, Gallo and some other geezers with a shared love of sonically weird, bona fide feel-good recordings with a very surreal twist. The best way to explain this collective’s approach is to cite their daytime hero, Jon Sa Trinxa:

"My DJ style is Balearic, which is like trying to define the indefinable…“ he once said. Confused? Well, thankfully, the iconic selector continued. “Many DJs are defined by playing a particular genre, but Balearic music is a kaleidoscope of genres. Balearic DJs play all styles."
 
As such, The Balearic Gabba Sound System represents the second generation of these so-called Balearic DJs; people who grew up on '90's raves and survived the digital revolution. Enzo Elia (Hell Yeah house specialist and key member of “El Freakadell”) is one of those enthusiast DJs. His famed and much loved Balearic Gabba Edits dig deeply into the crackling, early '90's Italian house scene and re-edits them for modern purposes, always with a sympathetic touch. There are not too many "spaghetti" episodes along the way, but obscure hands in-the-air-Riviera moments, tribal retro-winners, wannabe Idjut Boys b-sides and party-sampling manias a go-go do often feature: It’s clear, then, that the collective is about introducing you to a fresh musical sound you’ve been looking hard for, but weren’t even sure existed. Until now.

We’re very honored to have BGSS to our show this monday with a mixtape by Enzo Elia.

Enjoy this mix!
