Blissful library music by Stratus, found on a recent Moonboots mix.

Sueno Latino - Luxuria (Enzo Elia No Stress Edit), on Balearic Gabba Edits 5

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Kpef-_-dSE

That one took a while to spin up but loved it once it did.

Can anyone ID the track that starts 9 minutes into this?

It also appears 36 minutes into this:

it's the MOST GORGEOUS RECORD I'VE EVER HEARD

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8X08_wH8GsY

Beats in Space 14th anniversary show was v balearic ... half obscure, half well known classics

http://www.beatsinspace.net/playlists/693

maybe more beardo/classic rock I guess

that paul simon/todd terje is all-time. maybe the best terje imo.

totally-- i feel it has aged better than any other edit i was in to around 7 years ago

yup

THANK YOU SO MUCH! You've literally made my day. Such an incredible record.

First track on this new International Feel 12" is a beaut:

np dy

this terje edit from way back 7 years ago is still pretty great too

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgdZJKfR6bY

this isn't very balearic but its sort of in a studio/AMO1 vein, i like it

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

video is cool too http://vimeo.com/32882961

the melody in that bob james song reminds me of one of the songs in wicker man

Loved the Terje remix but I think this one might be my favourite:

https://soundcloud.com/bryanferry/dont-stop-the-dance-idjut-boys

sweet late-night balearica (the sax makes it): Pharaohs - Oasiics

imo the sax ruins that song :-(

The Pharaohs album is really good.

^ awesome. sax has never really ruined anything for me tbh

and god, that vollenweider edit is sooo good. i always bring the 12" with that and the chris rea edit with me when i play out, but i never have the balls to play anything but the rea side

dont get me wrong, the sax could have been great but its kind of a mess imo

gr80 I've "repped" for them before but I think you'd like almunia. Actually you have probably already heard them!

weird how much people are name-dropping the cat people soundtrack these days, maybe it's just me tho? i've always liked it but it seems to have gained some new classic touchstone status recently

that pharoahs track seems more isham/o'hearn than anything else

The debut album from Cinematic Orchestra's Phil France is probably going to end up my favourite release of the year. Gorgeous stuff

http://vimeo.com/68849557

nice. i'd bet money those first 2 min will be picked up by a movie/commercial.

THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS TBH

wow, fast, thanks so much!

My most listened to mix of the year, unless it's 2nd behind the Beautiful Swimmers Test Pressing thing.

eoy list roundups have recently brought saada bonaire to my attention... (WARNING: video is nsfw)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWVFzQoTQ1w

i listened to this without knowing anything about it and was surprised at how perfectly it was touching on all my favorite early 80s balearic touchstones... then i realized it was legit unreleased stuff from the '80s. so maybe not balearic "revival" per se

yeah apparently the one single they actually released (You Could Be More Who You Are) was a legit "early '80s balearic touchstone." that record is really great I think. been listening a ton on spotify but haven't come across the vinyl yet.

I would have slotted it under post-punk myself but can definitely see how it fits nicely into this sound.

yeah i mean there's definitely some postpunk in there, alongside a whole lot of sultry saxophone and beach sounds, post-punk can be balearic

word

i also didn't realize that the single was produced by dennis bovell!

fwiw they also happen to be balearic dreambabes

Awesome track.

"Ibiza: Moments In Love creates a picture of Ibiza as it was in the eighties through a collection of club posters, books and original photographs."

On now at the ICA in London: http://www.ica.org.uk/whats-on/ibiza-moments-love

http://testpressing.org/2013/09/exhibition-ica-ibiza-moments-in-love/

Haven't been here in a minute so not sure if anyone has posted, but Yves Uro's party posters were amazing! https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.220339301327900.67059.219583254736838&type=3

just discovered that most (maybe all?) of pacific horizons' output is up on spotify, the new track "bandini" is kinda nice. their whole schtick is a lot more lo-fi than i realized, it works great at times but can kinda clash with some of the other, more relaxed sounds

i don't think i've seen this happy lil jam on ilx yet:
