ILYA SANTANA "Discotized / Holding You" - 12" (PERMVAC009-1)
Ilya Santana, the super wonderboy from the Canarian Islands strikes back! After contributing his exclusive track "Black Leather Pants After Midnight" for the Permanent Vacation compilation last summer, he is now up with his first full release for pv. The protege of Danny Wang, on whose Balihu imprint he released his debut ep in 2005, has sucked up the essence of disco, which can be heard and felt in every note of his music. The crystal clear sound, the great synth lines and the huge arpeggio cue of "Discotized", has all the ingredients for a space disco anthem and works amazing on the dancefloors around the globe. On the flip we have "holding you", a warm more metro area kinda vibe tune with beautiful string sounds.
