Colleen ’Cosmo’ Murphy broadcast the 150th episode of Balearic Breakfast on her Mixcloud and Twitch TV socials on October 10th 2023.

About this show. – With the first tracks played by Colleen, I really had the sensation of a slow and sexy Balearic Swaying! I was ready to title this post "Balearic Swayings", but ultimately remembered while working on it that we had the pleasure of hearing the interview Be.Lanuit did with Colleen! So I had to change my plans (laughs!). Oh well, I'm sure I'll have another chance to use that title in the future! Anyway, that 'Swaying feeling' stayed present until the end of what really was a Beautiful show! Listen to all of the songs (even the more "funky” ones like “Standing on the Verge of Getting It On” or the great "Hold on to it", including of course Magnon's "Space Love") and you'll feel that cool rhythm inviting you to move your body from left to right in a never-ending dance!

Listen back to the 149th edition of Balearic Breakfast:

The Wow effect. – The Balearic Familly just loved that 149th edition of Balearic Breakfast. As far as the tracks played in the first part are concerned, some of them really got our attention! Tracks like The Groovers ‘Where You Belong’ (which made me think about Barry White's "Never gonna give you up", until Rick Van Veen told me the track used was Dionne Warwick's "Move Me No Mountains"), Jezebel – Swamp Shuffle's (which includes Gerry Rafferty's "Get It Right Next Time") really gave us goosebumps!

Also, Colleen managed to keep Balearic Breakfast's musical unity and structure alive and well in the first hour of the show; this might seem "nothing special" to you, but when you think about it this show has a soul of its own and respecting it and keeping its vibe alive in just one hour is something that must be praised here (Colleen wasn't presenting this one live due to her travelling but, as always when these situations occur, she prerecords the episode and invites an artist to a friendly chinwag ^^)!

We also loved the laid-back, gentle and pictural interview the Spanish DJ Be.Lanuit did with Colleen, showcasing, while presenting his new album HIPPIE PICASSO (available to listen on all major platforms), how much art (in this case Pablo PIcasso's influence) and music are linked (this made me think of how much music inspires me when I write my own texts, music is such a great conveyer of emotions!).

Musically, the Balearic Breakfast Family was in awe and really dug the selection Be.Lanuit did in the altruistic and cool mix he crafted (absolutely keeping the "Balearic Swayings" vibes on, laughs!), including tracks like Colleen's remix "Elevation in minor" and the great "Madre and Padre" by Lova (for those of you who are interested, you can read my interview with Davide here). This beautiful moment brought some of the Balearic Breakfast family members some new dreams to achieve, like djing in Ibiza for instance! Balearic Breakfast is such a great dream purveyor!
