yeah, definitely getting a strong 'sceneries not songs' vibe, dig it.

this mix is so divine, groovypanda. yr pacing & selections are solid. i was just dropping in to say the new Sebastian Tellier record has balearic feels / is a tyte summer record, and now yr mix is making my mood all cool and hedonistic.

I'm digging the Mark Barrott album on International Feel. Super chill mellow tropical vibes.

baby come home!
― dmr, Tuesday, 17 June 2014 12:15 (nine years ago) link
said it uphtread but baby come home is the best song of 2014 full stop
― online hardman, Tuesday, 17 June 2014 13:51 (nine years ago) link
Even though it's a song from 2013.
The chords and high organ / string-synth line made me think of Pulp's 'Babies' before I'd clocked the title. Apparently it's only me that thinks that though.

nitpicking there imo.

yeah that mark barrot album is so damn great. kinda funny that as of 2012 he was making albums with subtitles like "music for mind, body & pilates"

Paul from Test Pressing has been posting DJ mixes from the 80s taken from a load of cassettes that Leo Mas gave him. The Oakenfold and Ricardo ones are stellar:

The Paqua album dropped yesterday too but I haven't heard it yet.
it's nice (if sometimes verging (pleasantly) on corny) -- appreciate the guitar licks all over the place
― reggie (qualmsley), Friday, 20 June 2014 11:27 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, I've got it now. Not quite as good as I was hoping
Looking forward to this though:

i had to give myself some time to decide how good the young marco lp is, and i've decided that it's very, very good. in the few weeks it has gone from pleasant and unassuming to my favorite album of the year so far. despite the initial feeling that it's simple, it really is a grower. it feels very unified, but each time the next track starts i'm surprised by how different it is from the previous, and every track is a highlight. i think it's quite perfect.

^ hoping to reach the same conclusion. liking it a LOT so far, but i've yet to make the kind of connection i've made with his other mixes/productions for w/e reason. definitely no sense of disappointment whatsoever, i just think i've been listening to it in the wrong settings
― hug niceman (psychgawsple), Monday, 7 July 2014 21:38 (nine years ago) link
i'm at where psychgawsple is at but i don't think i've listened to it enough yet and i'm very happy with it when i do
― lex pretend, Monday, 7 July 2014 21:54 (nine years ago) link
It certainly starts 'pleasant and unassuming' but then kicks into gear big time... great first listen last night.
― skip, Tuesday, 8 July 2014 14:42 (nine years ago) link
Just on first spin of Young Marco now. Very 'sceneries not songs' as previously mentioned. Some of this incredibly beautiful stuff. 'Trippy isolator' just now, woah. Timeless stuff.

from Mark Barratt's totally chill Sketches From An Island album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnmG-zFEvic

love sketches from an island so much i seriously considered paying 30 pounds + shipping for the t-shirt
― hug niceman (psychgawsple), Wednesday, 16 July 2014 17:06 (nine years ago) link
^ the 'birds of paradise' one was super sick but it sold out like right away :(((
― dude (Lamp), Wednesday, 16 July 2014 18:30 (nine years ago) link
it was in my cart for a brief moment, but jfc @ that price
― hug niceman (psychgawsple), Wednesday, 16 July 2014 18:46 (nine years ago) link
beautiful cover though
― hug niceman (psychgawsple), Wednesday, 16 July 2014 18:47 (nine years ago) link
a hundred pounds for the two t-shirts + a sweatshirt was justifiable to me although attempting to defend it now on a messageboard i cant remember why it seemed so reasonable
― dude (Lamp), Wednesday, 16 July 2014 18:50 (nine years ago) link
lol i understand the impulse, i wouldn't wear a lot of things on a t-shirt but totally down to rep ifeel
― hug niceman (psychgawsple), Wednesday, 16 July 2014 19:08 (nine years ago) link
fwiw i have never regretted spending a ton of money on my Studio t-shirt.

Echoing the adulation for the Young Marco album.
― boxedjoy, Thursday, 17 July 2014 19:49 (nine years ago) link
Here to do the same. Found it on Spotify yesterday and just completed my 5th time through. So good. Need this on vinyl immediately.
― brotherlovesdub, Thursday, 17 July 2014 21:51 (nine years ago) link
Last track on the Mark Barrott beats in space mix really caught me unawares, even Tim S let it fade out w/o the obligatory chat. Lump in the throat stuff. Obv a check of the track list shows it's Sacred Islands, the closer to his album. Instant classic for me.

that mark barrott album is so great! "dr nimm's garden of intrigue & delight" >>>>>>

Only got the chance to listen to half the Mark Barrott album this morning but 'Deep Water' is incredible, it's like the intro to Halcyon + On + On stretched out over six minutes.
― Matt DC, Friday, 18 July 2014 08:47 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, I think it's CD/vinyl only unless you got a digital copy from iTunes
