Jose Padilla - Essential Mix - Cafe Del Mar - September 1995

Outstanding Essential Mix here from Jose Padilla, of Cafe Del Mar fame, from 1995. Originally broadcast on 10th September, this is a set which got a lot of airtime back then. Super music from a pioneer of chillout. Soaring sounds, ambience, breaks, soul/funk, house, deep techno....it's all there in this timeless Dj set.....including Robert Miles' Children track, which became a massive hit soon after this was broadcast.

Jose Padilla began his residency at the Cafe Del Mar in 1991. Around that same time, artists like The Orb, FSOL and Banco De Gaia were becoming established and there was a strong ambient/rave/house/techno movement there for people to get lost in - the seeds were being well and truly sown. 

Jose Padilla's Cafe Del Mar series was very much part of the mix in this underground music revolution; people would go out, party, do what they do, come home and wind down to Jose's relaxed sound, dreaming of Ibiza. Heavenly stuff!

So, for the beats, including a tasty and recent Balearic house set from Jose who is wearing a cooler than cool t-shirt.....
