49 Mark Day (Balearic Assassins of Love)

We’re back, with some beautiful sunshine music for you from Mark Day from The Balearic Assassins Of Love, a hirsute raggle taggle DJ collective from various corners of the UK.BAOL are a collective of vinyl junkies comprising of former BTTB guest selector, Steve KIW, King Sunny Ade P, Mark D and Picko-d. They worship at the Technics altar of sunrise and the quadraphonic wickerman of sunset-like 80s Kicker-shod party druids. Channeling ley-lines from Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads they encapsulate the spirit of acid house, the emotional joy of pop and the laid-back loose feel of the White Isle with whatever music works for them there and then! Forever on an eternal quest to slay the dragon of segregation and the pigeon-hole of pretense they gather frequently and mix together musical forms as diverse as hypno Latvian Acid Skiffle, Mystic Tibetan Yacht Rock and Hokus Pocus Voodoo Shizzle to create that eclectic, highly danceable, couldn’t care less, ‘last day of the holiday’ feel so beloved of British People in Hot Weather. BAOL were once famously described as “A cross between the opening party at Amnesia and the last days of Sodom and Gommorah”.
