With his new record “Balearic Dreamdance”, Maltitz returns you to a time when House music first spread its wings. A 6 track record that channels the hedonistic spirit of the late 80s and early 90s, a sound that has soundtracked endless summers drifting between sun-drenched euphoria and a more hypnotic late-night mindset. This record is the artist’s sonic postcard of Mediterranean bliss.
“La Isla Selini” opens with playful charm, it’s the carefree energy of a summer anthem reimagined through Maltitz’s uniquely sun-kissed lens. “Hot Summer 2023”, co-produced with Selina, captures the hazy beauty of an afterhours in Ibiza. Strangely intimate warmth, dreamy focus and the lingering feeling of the first rays of light over the sea. Closing up the first half of the record “Valentines Island” drops into pure nostalgia, a 90s-style piano hymn built for timeless dancefloor moments you may or may not remember clearly.
On the flip side Maltitz works it a little deeper, “Marabu Beach” and “Café Saganaki” reveal the club-driven core of the record. These tracks weave dub techno textures and echoes of 90s techno into the Balearic mist. To close things out we have a remix from NY Stomp, a fitting addition to the record who’s inspiration now spans the Atlantic, their remix of “Wax n Tax” folds classic House muscle into Maltitz’s palette, trading seaside sway for sidewalk strut.
Together, the tracks form a journey that feels both like a memory and a promise: the endless summer lives on.
