this is a thread for the BALEARIC REVIVAL

farts indeed

farts (edit)

Annnnyyywaayy don't remember if this was the thread or not but there's a new Montée record out. Seems to be pretty hard to get outside of the Nordic territories right now tho

Cool, the first one still gets a regular airing.

Digital here: http://mp3.platekompaniet.no/site/web3/view.ftl?page=product&productId=6320742

No idea how much NOK 33 is in real money.

Thanks, man. I don't know either, but after hearing a few of the tracks I think it might be too much for me :(

yeah i d/l'd that and was like uhhh yeah dont think it fits this thread

Yeah, bummer. The first one does though and is absolutely worth the time

fuuuck what version of naive melody is that

I'd love to know that too. Psychemagik have actually done an edit of that song but it's not that edit in the mix.

fuck i finally found it:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLSPzRDXtWg

it was actually commissioned by an "alt country" blog for their valentines day mixtape!!?!

http://whenyouawake.com/2011/02/14/music-for-the-morning-after-an-exclusive-valentines-mixtape-from-us-to-you/

loling at the tremendous feeling of self-satisfaction i have after literally spending hours off and on this week trying to figure it out

haha, i searched for "naive melody" on discogs and got nothing, figures

bro I spent an hour listening to anything titled "this must be the place" or "naive melody" on soundcloud to no avail

it was actually commissioned by an "alt country" blog for their valentines day mixtape!!?!

ahhhhhh ha ha thats some deep digging

Thanks for finding that song gr8, I love it!

i actually prefer the psychemagik edit (http://soundcloud.com/esp-institute/ariel-pinkround-round)to that version, hard to beat that children's choir breakdown in the middle imo. also i have a p large aversion to slow sad covers of 80s tunes

oh woops, i linked to the wrong thing ha... http://soundcloud.com/psychemagik/this-must-be-the-place-psychemagik-naive-edit

that stallions remix of ariel pink is p applicable to this thread too tho

where can i get/purchase a copy of that mp3!?

http://www.junodownload.com/products/this-must-be-the-place/1687944-02/

brilliant! cheers!

doubt david byrne's getting a cut of that

i haven't heard the almunia album but the new moon/travel single is absolutely gorgeous

Nice one, cheers. I've listened to loads of covers in the past few weeks too but hadn't found it.

If you can now track down the tune at 41 minutes that would be great ;)

Just thought I'd post here for the first time in a year to plug this:

Which you can hear and purchase here

Personal involvement alert. I did the artwork. But these dudes are solid occasional ILX lurkers who hang with some serious ILX folk and deserve your attention.

^ spoiler. my bff from hs that i talk to every day on IM is involved

I heard since we posted to this thread they've sold a hundred copies. Mission accomplished.

hey thats dope

best songs i heard for the 1st time today were that & "N.O.R.E. Shot Somebody"

And for those enjoying this mix, I can also thoroughly a lot of the other mixes on the Test Pressing site especially the following:

049 - Jan Hammered: Wino Junkie
051 - Psychemagik: High On You
081 - Cosmic Jane: When I Grow Up
088 - Lexx: Sunshowers

jan hammered's 'airport airport' mix is an all-time favorite, wasn't aware of these newer mixes but i'm excited to check them out. test pressing is a p amazing blog

the other new claremont release (besides almunia) looks pretty good too - torn sail - birds 12 inch . i want to hear more than a sample but the tiago remix seems like it could be epic

I was actually listening to that Torn Birds on Youtube as i was reading this thread. It's a great track:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0UpGDQxqB8

I've got partial tracklistings for some of those mixes, including most of the tracks on the Jan Hammered ones if you want. The Cosmic Jane one is brilliant too.

Prins Thomas also has a new downtempo mix/comp that LN-CC was selling a month or two ago called cosmanova IV (apparently you can DL cosmanova II on the web, it's from a couple years ago)... totally balearic

samples here:

also thanks for digging up that naive melody cover g8080! feelin on this sooooo hard

I'm still playing the Celestial Love mix on a daily basis. Really wanna know 27.17 mins!

The Torn Sail track is out digitally today. Listening to the wav version now and it sounds fantastic.

Another super Balearic mix:

Moonboots - Atmospheric Conditions

http://noncollective.com/wp-content/MP3/atmospheric.mp3

i'm still loving that psychemagik mix too, but it inspired me to seek out their edit of that talking heads song and tbh i've been listening to that a LOT more

and i've been impressed with moonboots mixes in the past, so i'll definitely give that one a dl

their edit of naive melody is terrific!

listening to this moonboots mix right now and enjoying it

nice stuff here, thanks guys.

I think that balearic jam on the Psychemagik mix is Chris Fantasy's Fighting The Wind which is quite old and super rare.

It's on the Moonboots mix too.

That's the 40.39 one then? Good work groovypanda. BTW I see that Psychemagik is playing at Horse & Groom this Friday.

anyone else listening to the new Gatto Fritto LP?

Gatto Fritto-Gatto Fritto

ha thanks

False alarm on that track ID :(

surprised at how beautiful this is The Korgis - Everybody's Got To Learn Sometime (AC Re-Edit)

This remake of Paula Cole's "Feelin' Love" is doing a lot for me, but I was always a fan of the original anyway.
