Last year
Pete Tong teamed up with Jules Buckley and The Heritage Orchestra to release
Classic House, a masterful album of covers of some of Ibiza's favourite songs. After featuring the likes of
Katy B,
Ella Eyre, and
John Newman, Tong and Buckley have tapped
Jessie Ware,
Becky Hill and even
Seal for their new album,
Ibiza Classics. This new hour and a quarter epic sees
The Chemical Brothers,
Armand Van Helden,
Kolsch,
The Prodigy and more take on a new symphonic sound. After the success of the first album, it's hard to believe that things could get better, but dare I say it, they may have achieved the impossible. Hearing
Seal sing "
Killer" and
RAYE sing "
Body Language" is one thing, but once again the win in my ears comes with the multi-track melodies "
Running/Finally" and "
Rej/Man With The Red Face/Yeke Yeke." I know I'll be enjoying the entirety of this undeniable excellence for days, weeks and most likely months to come. Stream
Ibiza Classics below, and download from iTunes
