Release information:

 

Iboga Records presents The third Single from the highly anticipated 5th album “I love you, who are you?” from the Swedish duo TICON.

 

The title of the single is “Balkan Tourist”, and the original version is backed up with a SUPER tribal house remix by Paul Thomas & Myke Smith in the best Carl Cox style.

 

Balkan Tourist has the potential to go all the way and become the hit of the album with a highly infective party groove, spiced up with clever use of instrument samples. Also a music video of the original tune is on the way

 

Paul Thomas, known from releases on Toolroom, Global Underground, Spinnin', Little Mountain, 303 Lovers, Audio Therapy, Strictly Rhythm and many more, deliver together with Myke Smith a top quality progressive house remix that altogether makes this a deadly tool for DJ´s.
