- The Spanish artist uses all-exclusive tracks on the new double-disc mix.
DJ and producer Henry Saiz has mixed Balance 19, due for release on June 10th.
Though a relative newcomer to the scene, having made his recording debut in 2006, Saiz established a name for himself with 12-inches on Renaissance and remixes on Bedrock and Global Underground. Balance 19 is his first commercial mix, and manages to be both backward-leaning and forward-thinking: though it features all new material, the collection bears a theme of nostalgia. Saiz says one of the most important aspects of music is its "evocative power to send you back to your childhood or to a specific moment of your life," and he tries to create this experience by using old vinyl and cassettes to create a lo-fi aural feel, especially on the first disc. The second half is more beat-driven, tech house fare, but still follows this basic concept.
All of the tracks on Balance 19 are previously unreleased, including solo tracks and collaborations by Saiz (under his own name or his new alias, Hal Incandenza), and artists like Ricardo Tobar, Jesse Somfay and Star Sailor, AKA Petar Dundov.
