my record has side I: Mykonos (Beta Mix) and side II: Mykonos (Alpha Mix) so the opposite of what is written here at discog as said: if you're a new beat fan this is one needed in your collection!

A new world is made on ...Mykonos! Splendid production on legendary Target records in 1989. 1989 was the last great year for New Beat, after that it disappeared just as fast as it exploded onto the club scene 2 years earlier. Some would argue that it evolved into Skizzo, but for me personally New Beat was far more superior to that kiddie-music (sorry Skizzo fans ;). Neon was a project between Jean-Pierre Bulté (owner of Target records) and studio wizard Luc Devriese. They had a few 'hits' with their versions of 'baby wants to ride' and 'fade to grey' earlier on, but none of them came close to this release, although 'voices' was also pretty good. Mykonos is almost like the definition of New Beat. Mysterious, a sinister build-up and some dramatic effects to keep you interested. The lead-synth slowly evolves from a backing synth into a lead by a slow and sometimes sudden change in amplitude and filter changes. It's not a difficult and complex synth-line, but just like the other classics, very effective. There is of course the great percussion with the snares and claps, perfectly programmed with some good pattern changes. The choir in the background adding a lot of depth and emotion, and a nicely produced bassline is also part of the experience. Very interesting and somewhat underrated release since it hasn't been featured on many compilations back in the days, like 'Acid Rock' by Rhythm Device, which was all over the place and is in my opinion production-wise, far behind Mykonos. If you can find this one and you are a New Beat fan, it definitely should be part of your collection.
