he said, "hello, good sir. the usage of the term balearic is causing a great pain to my ears. it would pleasure me greatly if you refrained from using it in my presence. good day"

― deej, Thursday, 3 July 2008 20:56 (fifteen years ago) link
he probably had his wakeboard with him

no one seems to be talking abt the new lindstrøm? i posted on the thread for it... i think its great. probably fits more under 'balearic' than 'beardo.' "the long way home" sounds like a straight rip of michael shrieve's "transfer station blue." title track is sort of a jarre/e2-e4 thing. great for summer nights.

max, dunno if you heard this or not, but did you hear this Klaus Shønning track i put on my site? sounds totally like "transfer station blue" http://robotsinheat.com/trax/LocrianArabesque.mp3

― haitch, Saturday, 5 July 2008 14:38 (fifteen years ago) link
it's on its way in the mail, i'm super stoked
― san frandisco, Wednesday, 16 July 2008 18:24 (fifteen years ago) link
i like it alot.
i guess this should go in the beardo thread, but i am really enjoying the new riton album - eine kleine nacht musik.

― impudent harlot, Monday, 21 July 2008 15:07 (fifteen years ago) link
Yeah it's great isn't it - so different though from his mixes for 24 Hours and Cosmic Disco (both of which are brilliant). The guy has great range.
― Tim F, Monday, 21 July 2008 15:10 (fifteen years ago) link
aside from the obvious highlights on this mix ("tusk"!), i will plump for "desperate for your love", which is gorgeous winsome prog-lite
i might like this even more than the 24 hours mix!
― impudent harlot, Monday, 21 July 2008 15:10 (fifteen years ago) link
I wish I had tracklists for those mixes :-(
― Tim F, Monday, 21 July 2008 15:14 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah, 24 hours tracklist u+k (i can identify about five or six things maybe)
― impudent harlot, Monday, 21 July 2008 15:17 (fifteen years ago) link
BTW Vahid did you know that Jess of Jess & Crabbe fame is one of the curators of this Permanent Vacation comp:

a link to visti's "balearic monday" mix? much love for his "Kodex 205"/ "Tokyo By Night" 12" but i also keep playing his "Jolene" to death as well.
― beta blog, Monday, 21 July 2008 17:04 (fifteen years ago) link
balearic monday mix (and tons of other nice-looking mixes i haven't heard) available here
this past weekend i floated in my friend's pool down by the jersey shore while listening to my balearic playlist on ipod dock and it was :D :D :D
― impudent harlot, Monday, 21 July 2008 17:32 (fifteen years ago) link
Okay let's try to do track ids for peter visti's 24 hours mix:
0:00 - ??? ("Captain, I think we're home/one thousand years later, where did I go?)" 5:59 - ??? 13:51 - ??? 20:03 - LCD Soundsystem - Us & Them (Windsurf's Any Color U Like Mix) 30:16 - Reverso 68 - Piece Together (Part Two) (THIS IS THE BEST SONG EVER BTW - I should hunt down the vinyl for this b/c Todd Terje remix of Part One is also amazing) 37:48 - Santana - Mirage 42:30 - ??? 47:02 - ??? 52:30 - ??? 59:27 - ??? (I'm positive I know this) 1:06:50 - 1:15:34 - Still Going - Still Going Theme
That Fred Deaking Nu-Balearica comp looks like it'd be pretty excellent in this style.
― Tim F, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 12:47 (fifteen years ago) link
13:51 is one of visti's own tracks i think? "heaven is a disco"?
59:27- is this the very disco track? that's an idjut boys edit called "blow me slow"
― impudent harlot, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 13:58 (fifteen years ago) link
DYING to know what 5:59 is
which Visti mix are you trying to figure out?
― BATTAGS, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 17:54 (fifteen years ago) link
the 24:hours one
― impudent harlot, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 18:17 (fifteen years ago) link
right, i got that part, but the most recent 'after dark' mix doesn't match this tracklisting you folks are trying to put together at all. so which one?
― BATTAGS, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 18:33 (fifteen years ago) link
oh right, the other one:
http://2-4-hours.blogspot.com/2007/10/peter-visti-has-been-djing-and.html
― impudent harlot, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 18:36 (fifteen years ago) link
dl'ing now
― BATTAGS, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 18:36 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah 13:51 is 'heaven is a disco'..can't figure out anything else tho, i'm no help.
― BATTAGS, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 18:43 (fifteen years ago) link
That's already been a help guys!
How about the Cosmic Disco mix? This is even more of a mystery to me.
0.00 - ??? 6:00 - ??? (I love this one -"What do you see????") 9:47 - ??? (the cheesy piano in this is amazing) 15:34 - ??? 20:00 - Human League - Being Boiled 26:35 - ??? (pretty amazing whatever it is) 30:40 - ??? (I adore this, it reminds me of early Soul II Soul - structurally occupies the same role as "Piece Together Pt 2" in the 24 Hours mix - "Calling you African people! This is an African court!") 35:53 - ??? (this sounds very familiar though - could it be Reverso 68 again?) 41:31 - ??? 46:56: - ??? (Some cover or edit of CSN's "Fair Game" I think) 50:27 - Deadbeat - Port Au Prince 56:42 - ??? 1:01:14 - ??? 1:05:39 - ??? 1:11:54 - ???
― Tim F, Tuesday, 22 July 2008 22:56 (fifteen years ago) link
52:30 - ???
hot r.s. - slow blow (or one of the many edits thereof)
― max, Wednesday, 23 July 2008 21:38 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah, that's what i meant above, but i got the time wrong
― impudent harlot, Wednesday, 23 July 2008 21:46 (fifteen years ago) link
15:34 - ???
this one is killing me--i think ive heard an edit of it somewhere? the bass is instantly recognizable.
― max, Wednesday, 23 July 2008 22:07 (fifteen years ago) link
oh sorry harlot i didnt see thats what u meant
― max, Wednesday, 23 July 2008 22:08 (fifteen years ago) link
a tip off : A Mountain of One - Collected Works - Zavvi - £3 [you may have to dig in the random sale racks] having heard this album, i now get why this thread is so full of love for the band. wonderful.
― mark e, Thursday, 24 July 2008 08:43 (fifteen years ago) link
am i the only one to hear shades of those london spaced out acid jazz'rs Sandals in AMO1s people without love ?
not a complaint though, as i loved the Sandals thing before it all fell apart under bad coverart choices.
― mark e, Thursday, 24 July 2008 09:09 (fifteen years ago) link
haha just went to download the cosmic disco mix and they've got the tracklist there!:

Electric Mind - Zwei (Dub) Sammy Barbot - New Mexico The Human League - Being Boild (Peter Visti Edit) Sly Mongoose - Bad Pulse Kwanzaa Posse - Wicked Funk Lexx - Slow Burning Smith and Mudd - Shulme Mandre - Fair Game Deadbeat - Port au Prince Thomas Leer - Tight As A Drum Luna Twist - African Time Karma - Funk de Mambo Thomzen - Che Amichi
― impudent harlot, Thursday, 24 July 2008 12:47 (fifteen years ago) link
Sammy Barbot - New Mexico
^^ i knew this one from the lovefingers edit of this track
― max, Thursday, 24 July 2008 12:54 (fifteen years ago) link
love this, he used it on some other mix right?
― deej, Thursday, 24 July 2008 12:55 (fifteen years ago) link
lol xp
oh nev mind thats the same mix ive been listening to
― deej, Thursday, 24 July 2008 12:56 (fifteen years ago) link
Love the vocal in the background of "New Mexico" shouting "you're not the only one!" - sounds really doom-laden for some reason!
― Tim F, Thursday, 24 July 2008 13:16 (fifteen years ago) link
But really the heart of this mix for me is the Sly Mongoose/Kwanzaa Posse section. If I had that Kwanzaa Posse track I would play it at every party ever.
― Tim F, Thursday, 24 July 2008 13:19 (fifteen years ago) link
calling all you african people!

― max, Thursday, 24 July 2008 13:35 (fifteen years ago) link
Yeah that zshare link is not quite the right one, but still good. It's more self-consciously "balearic".
