Triple LP version. Created over the span of two years, Balance 032 marks a creative high point in the career of Madrid-based artist Henry Saiz, and this marks his third appearance for the hallowed compilation series. Spread over an expansive three discs, it has given him the space to curate a truly stunning odyssey of creative expression -- one influenced by everything from AI to his recent ADHD diagnosis. As ever, he has gone above and beyond to ensure that the mix is crammed full of exclusive, unreleased material, both from himself and many of his favorite producers and collaborators, from unknowns through to household names. Created in Ableton, which he uses for his DJ sets due to its unlimited creative functionality and precision, the mix makes great use of many effects, layerings, and production techniques to enhance the beautiful sounds that lie within. A deep and spacey feel early on with plenty of dubby touches gives way to meatier sounds, psychedelic tones woven into the heavier rhythms as the tempos gradually creep upwards and elements of trance abound through a flurry of Saiz exclusives. A grandstand finish is guaranteed by way of his incredible chugging-based rework of Moonlight Wolves' "Mantra," the light dreamy beauty of Henry Saiz and Somfay's "To Steal a Star from The Night," and the intense synth overload of H. Haze's "La Fuerza." A perfect end to a truly remarkable body of work.
