Talk:Balearic Beat

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Balearic Beats was never a style of Music but a style of DJing. There was never ever one tune that encapsulated the term "Balearic". This was an awareness of Diverse and obscure styles of dance music ie:Early Chicago House/Reggae/Hip Hop/Pop/European pop bands etc etc.It was a fresh and unelitist way of DJing.What was wrong with going to a club and hearing House next to Obscure Euro sounds next to reggae and then a bit the Clash Thrown in, It was Entertaining and opened up a lot of people to new ideas. Balearic Beats were first played in Clubs in Ibiza like Amnesia,Ku,and Bars such as the Cafe del mar by people like Jose Padilla and Alfredo partly because there only had a few Acid/House Tunes back and partly the Crowds in such clubs were more Musically opened minded that you average London Poser nodding his head in the Wag or Delerium. This has been penned by a Thirty Eight year old Dad..who gets misty eyed about spending my youth in such clubs Wag/Mud Club/Delerium/Raw/ shake and finger pop etc etc..Then finding Shoom/future/Loudnoise/BoysOwn/Monkeydrum/Raid..Blah Blah Blah.

I feel like Henry in Goodfellas at the end when he comes out of his little Detached house with his Slippers on to collect the paper.
