Album Review: Mi Ma Sun by Ivo Morini Feat. Big Buddha
Released in 2009 under Takuma Records, Mi Ma Sun is an Italian gem that dives deep into the realms of electronic music, blending Trance and Progressive House with finesse. It’s the kind of album that sneaks up on you—quietly unforgettable, like a summer sunset you didn’t know you needed.
The standout track, Mi Ma Sun (Club Mix), hits hard with its pulsating beats and layered synths. The progression feels almost hypnotic, pulling listeners into its rhythm like a tide you can’t resist. There’s something raw yet polished about the way it builds momentum, creating a soundscape that’s both intimate and expansive. If you’re into tracks that feel like they’re alive, this one’s for you. You don’t just hear it; you feel it in your chest, like a heartbeat amplified.
Then there’s Mi Ma Sun (Original Mix). This version strips things back just enough to let the melody breathe. It’s less aggressive than the Club Mix but no less captivating. The subtle shifts in tone and texture make it perfect for those late-night drives when you’re lost in thought. Honestly, it’s the kind of track that sticks with you—not because it’s flashy, but because it feels genuine, like a secret shared between friends.
Ivo Morini and Big Buddha crafted something special here. Sure, the album only has two tracks, but sometimes less is more. These songs don’t try too hard to impress—they just exist, confident in their ability to move you. And isn’t that what good music’s all about?
Funny thing is, listening to Mi Ma Sun now feels like rediscovering an old photo album. It’s rooted in 2009, but its vibe still resonates today. Maybe that’s why it’s stuck with me. Or maybe it’s just because I’ve always had a soft spot for Italian electronica that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Either way, this little album deserves more love than it gets. Check it out—you might just find yourself hitting repeat.
