West Coast

Six tracks do not an LP make, so this collection makes the shorts. The wide-eyed Balearica might seem a bit naïve at first but give it time (and you’ll need it, it’s 53 minutes long) and it proves to be an intoxicating listen (despite the occasionally duff vocal). ‘Life’s A Beach’ is the highlight, an 11-minute update of Underworld’s ‘Café Del Mar’ remix from yonks back.
