Get the balneario mug.The word Balearic in its most most simple terms means "of or having to do with the Balearic Islands" which are a group of small islands in the Western Mediterranean near the coast of Spain.
More specifically however, the term Balearic (or "Balearic Beat") has come to mean a genre of music which became popular on the islands of the same name, specifically the Balearic Island of Ibiza.
The Balearic genre is broad and almost means "eclectic" more than any specific style of sound. Generally, it tends towards sunny, melodic, "feel-good" electronic music, as it's birthplace was on the warm sunny beaches of the islands. This may encompass atmospheric house, downtempo, chillout, nu-disco, latin,soul, dub, and re-edits.
As mentioned before, the genre is about being eclectic, so a Balearic Beat DJ will often flow through many different sounds inside a single set. In fact, "Balearic" might be better thought of as a style of DJ'ing rather than a style of music. Still, the flavor always comes back to that sunny island feel and often incorporates smooth soul sounds, acoustic strings and guitar, dreamy vocals, and tempos under 120 BPM.

Get the ballarious mug.A condition you get when you go to the Balearic islands. It can also surface as an intense desire to go to the Balearic Islands. Symptoms include re-evaluation of ones life purpose, loss of ones identity and in some cases perceived heightened spirituality and spiritual awareness. Those diagnosed with balearia may not return from the Balearic islands until the condition is cured. Chronic balearia can last for decades, and has been known to make close friends or family to disappear from daily life without explanation.
Causes are relatively unknown, but MDMA, 127bpm and a care-free lifestyle have been suggested.
