7 tracks that turned Love International into pure bliss on the Croatian coast

Young Marco, Beach stage, Saturday night

Yikes, the conflicts of interest are near overwhelming on Saturday. At the same time as Honey Soundsystem are playing, Heidi is dropping a pacey main stage set that rewards with Armand Van Helden's remix of Tori Amos 'Professional Widow', Inner City 'Big Fun' and the King Britt remix of Josh One's 'Contemplation' towards the end.

Multiple distractions have the upside of making Mixmag miss the cringe moment in which audacious Dutch selector Young Marco drops 'Forever Young', but the crowd sticks with him and Mixmag joins them just in time to hear this nagging, early 80s cosmic disco classic by compatriot group The Chaplin Band.

There's nothing left for it, caught up in the peak time crescendo, we opt to visit Barbarellas to catch The Black Madonna. She absolutely knocks it out of the park. Her set is not just well selected, energy-packed house with a few disco highlights; it is programmed and delivered in such a way as to remind of the most masterful DJs this writer has ever seen. Incredible. Beautiful Swimmers (main picture) who follow are also impressive, but in comparison they have drawn the short straw. The very best at their peak would struggle to follow that set delivered by The Black Madonna.
