Let’s see now … ‘Pacific’, ‘Balearic’, ‘Airscape’, rolling surf, crashing waves – yep, reckon we’ve got a summer wonder on our hands!
Airscape’s ‘Pacific Melody’ is one of those genre classics that, either by luck or judgement escaped re-release overload. For its first official outing in many a moon, Johan Gielen’s turned the keys over to English producer Kryder. With reworks of Chicane’s ‘Saltwater’ and ‘Offshore’, Solarstone’s ‘When I Dream’ and York’s ‘On The Beach’ already under his belt, it’s fair to say he has a knack for Balearic!
For ‘Pacific Melody’, Kryder’s opened the artistic lens that bit wider to create a remix with touchstones that imaginatively reach both pre-and-post Johan’s original.
In terms of its title, ‘Balearic Breaks Mix’ captures much of its nature, as Kryder wafts that Med essence, while using powerful 4/4 kicks to amp its breaks. Yearning sub-melodies, feelgood Italo-house piano and the transportive power of ‘Pacific Melody’s halcyon vocal cry all ensure its hot-season feels are laid bedrock-deep.
The Balearic Breaks Mix of ‘Pacific Melody’ is available to stream or buy from today. You can get a hold of it through this link ! No summer’s gonna be complete without it!

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]One of the most influential trance classics strikes back perfect for 2024 dancefloors. Kryder well known for his exceptional original and remixes reimagines the classic Johan Gielen presents Airscape seminal Pacific Melody in a very Balearic way. Tribal techy percussion, metallic basslines, thumping kicks and on top the cool vocal samples along with euphoric synths and magical piano chords that brings back memories of the balearic British house era. Ryder remix sounds like coming out from the 90's era through the filters and lenses of his very successful carrier through the years. He transforms the original into an exceptional journey through the years openminded and creative by having fun and let the crowd float away and enjoy till the end! #PureGold Love It[/content]
