INFO


On the white island, between Ibiza Town and the infamous fish shack high up on a rock next to a bird sanctua ry, you will find the beach of Talamanca. Plagued by too much seaweed, anchored middle-class yachts and joggers, it is also surprisingly the spiritual home of a correspondent post-Balearic group. As luck would have it, a remix request by Ma rk Barrott bedded the International Feel boss in a trio with Philipp Lauer and G erd Janson, alias Tuff City Kids. A highly sought-after 12-inch later ("Balanzat ), as well as fantasies of getting together to work on more material, led to a |No fruitful and effortless studio session on the non-Balearic outskirts of Frankfur t am Main.





The outcome of that meeting forms the homonymous debut album of Talamanca System. A documented vision, or a sunbu rned imagination of a day and night spent on said island, during a moment in tim e that probably never was or will be. Still summed up best by dungarees, long ha ir, yellow sunglasses, espadrilles or that famous picture of people grouped arou nd roofless Amnesia's pyramid well, it is the food of the Balearic gods. But, de ar nostalgia, stop right here! Even though Talamanca's debut flies the Balearic flag, it is not about turning back the clock, but rather about a past that could be the future. Dusted, danceable, driving, dreamy and dapper at the same time, this is an album for the club, the car, the beach, the (coke)float and the fount ain.





Coined by the colourful and respective talents of the three individuals behind Talamanca, you will hear nine tracks ran ging from up to downtempo, piano house smashers that would have deserved the pre fix Italo-, percussion rituals captured by a group of Zoo animals on the loose, soundtracks for dusk and dawn, hushed vocals, rites of ambient passages, powerfu l synth ballads and vamp choirs. If this album were a car, it would be a Citroen 2CV remade by Tesla.





We've said it before a nd we'll say it again: their past is your future!
