The Tensnake remixes of the Embassy are fanastic, and I was pretty surprised at how much I dug the original version, too.

while we're on the subject of amazing new 12"s, can i just say BLACKBELT ANDERSEN ON CLAREMONT 56 = OMFG IT'S GORGEOUS.
again, it's on sanfran's blog.
― psychgawsple, Thursday, 18 December 2008 05:29 (fifteen years ago) link
pretty much everything Claremont 56 is wicked at the moment. the most recent ones 'the delivery man' and the 7" are both fantastic, as is the blackbelt andersen and the super ashra-y one with the weird name. just got Andersen full-length on Full Pupp, will report on that one as soon as i get a chance to listen...
xpost - why would i be upset? do what you gotta do mang.
fyi the embassy 12" is in stock now at amoeba ;)

i gotta say i passed on it, to be honest...and i've liked some tensnake stuff in the past.

i downloaded a bunch of old-school baleric stuff at the suggestion of this thread. listened to it in my car, and was like, "i don't get it"
then i listened to the same playlist on vacation, sitting in the sun, looking out on the beach, and it all made so much more sense.

i can't see anymore record stores around here go out of business. not like amoeba is struggling, but jeez it's been like 3-4 good ones in the last year.

gracias! also on Blackbelt Andersen, I picked up the Kuk Av Stal 12" which is one of my favorite tracks of the year.
also awesome, Kuk Av Stal = Cock Of Steel in Norwegian
― san frandisco, Thursday, 18 December 2008 18:07 (fifteen years ago) link
do you have any of these in stock Mike? i would most certainly be interested, i'll see if i can stop by later today

'kuk av stal' is fucking amazing, one of my tunes of the year! sanfrandisco (your name escapes me, sorry), i'll hold onto whatever we've got in stock for you today. give me a call at the shop 415.831.1200. the blackbelt andersen LP won't be out for a month or so, a few weeks at least.
i hadn't realized a new y s i thread popped up after the smackdown a few years ago...

― Tim F, Thursday, 18 December 2008 22:09 (fifteen years ago) link
ah yeah that Soft Rocks is good! I listened, liked, and then put it back to get something else .... probably get it next time I see it. are their older ones real hard to find? I've only got Disco Power Play III which I've played the hell out of
― dmr, Thursday, 18 December 2008 22:29 (fifteen years ago) link
the super ashra-y one with the weird name
do you mean the "icasol" 12" by ongou? with the idjut boys edit on it? cause if so, YES. it is easily one of my tracks of the year.
i picked up that umut/slowdown 12" too. as with claremont 56, have soft rocks disappointed at all this year? all of the mixes and edits they've been putting out are quite cosmic and quite good. i even prefer their mix of "love love love" over all others, including the one from aeroplane. maybe it's just the presence of kathy diamond that does it for me...

straight out of Brooklyn...HOLY GHOST!
Holy Ghosthttp://www.myspace.com/holyghostnyclisten to
>>> the deep End HG Remix
what a track 8 minutes of pure brilliance... deep chunky cosmic space grooves, euphoric synth solos, moody atmospheric New Order hooky basslines
will holy ghost release a studio album in 2009?
mungolian jet set, aeroplane, holy ghost, the return of Andrew Weatherall.... what are the other balearic artists to look out for in 2009?
― djmartian, Thursday, 8 January 2009 20:44 (fifteen years ago) link
jeez not everything is balearic, guy
― opinions4usic (deej), Thursday, 8 January 2009 20:46 (fifteen years ago) link
ha. yeah. i'm pretty sure holy ghost aren't balearic

aww, but does it really hurt anyone if he thinks that?
personally i am really hoping for more from västkustska ryggdunkarsällskapet and tiedye

anyone heard this?
― suggest banana (braveclub), Friday, 16 January 2009 11:17 (fifteen years ago) link
Not at all balearic. It's more homejob synth, lo-fi acid, "beatbox grot and wobbly end-of-the-pier organ", all sequenced as a single 60 min track.
It also includes a "wow-and-fluttering synth-pop cover of “It Never Rains in Southern California”".

this is a new band in my town called Moonstone
I think they may be balearic, but I'm not sure
they are cool though

(xpost) don't forget that an important component of the original balearic sound was the occasional industrial or dark-wave track thrown in for good measure (throbbing gristle, cabaret voltaire, belgian synth wave bands, etc). shit wasn't just beaches and yacht rock, it also had that exploratory element of weirdness going on.
currently listening to it for the first time the whole way through, but parlour's mix of frak tunes on information sounds great so far. and it definitely fits on the side of the balearic spectrum i mentioned above.

^w/r/t Parlour. I keep forgetting to play it more often as the cd gets lost in the piles of other cd's because of its slim paper packaging.(One major quibble I have with Information though is that they (or whoever ships for them) don't know how to package vinyl. The covers came out shit both time I ordered (folded around the vinyl so to speak)...)

Hans Appelqvist is awesome, I bought Sifantin Och Mörkret after hearing a song of his on (if I remember correctly) a Wire Tapper cd. Not balearic though, but quirky songwriter/sample songs with lots of detail. Artwork is by the guy who also does visuals/videos for the Knife.

Hey, is anybody going to see Lindstrom in Chicago tonight? I've never seen him before so I wanna check it.
― stingy, Friday, 30 January 2009 21:54 (fifteen years ago) link
smartbar + lindstrom + cold winter nite sounds so dope. jealous.
― gr8080, Friday, 30 January 2009 23:08 (fifteen years ago) link
i saw him last night
― max, Friday, 30 January 2009 23:53 (fifteen years ago) link
you should go, just dont expect it to be a really dance-y set
yeah i'm planning to go, even though it's 11 degrees currently. was he just playing records or did he have actual synths when you saw him?
― stingy, Saturday, 31 January 2009 00:11 (fifteen years ago) link
lol he was playing his laptop
― max, Saturday, 31 January 2009 00:11 (fifteen years ago) link
hes not djing--he does a set of his own shit. i recommend smokin a fat doob.
― max, Saturday, 31 January 2009 00:12 (fifteen years ago) link
o shit. i'm going tomorrow night. gtk
― (jaxon) ( .) ( .) (jaxon), Saturday, 31 January 2009 00:19 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah tbh we were a little disappointed since we were expecting him to be djing a dance set, but hes really just doing a laptop show. im sure i would have liked it more if i had known thats what it was, but as it was i was a little :(
― max, Saturday, 31 January 2009 00:31 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah but didnt he warn u in the interview
― gr8080, Saturday, 31 January 2009 00:33 (fifteen years ago) link
i didnt heed the signs
― max, Saturday, 31 January 2009 00:38 (fifteen years ago) link
i don't know if anyone could be into dancing in these temperatures
― stingy, Saturday, 31 January 2009 00:43 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah i would rather see woolfy's live band set tomorrow here in sf than lindstrom with a laptop
― all-seeing eye of horus (psychgawsple), Saturday, 31 January 2009 00:45 (fifteen years ago) link
i assume lindstrom was playing where you go and some other stuff? i guess i want to make sure this is going to be worth my while because it is really freakin cold outside and i don't have a car. i'm fine with it being chill/not dancey but if it's just like listening to the album on a better sound system then that's not as appealing. thanks for the info max
