what other slightly silly "balearic" songs should I be playing at my projected b'day party in may? apart from "Stop Bajon" and "Like an Eagle" and "Life In A Northern Town" and the Larry Levan edit of "Maneater" and "Midnight Man" and "Diamonds on the Soles of her Shoes" and "Stranger in the City"...?

Deej, congrats on becoming the latest test subject in a study that attempts to clinically prove that MP3s cause listener apathy ;)

Here's an updated version of Max's comp from above with the whole of the DJ History top 25 Balearic in it. Some of the versions of Max's stuff I've upgraded. E2-E4 is in there but as the 5 min edit version.
It all looks a bit of a mess in the folder coz I got bits from here and there but it should all be tagged nicely for itunes etc.
I have a lot to do today so I've done this as displacement activity.

does that include the extended versions of the songs i posted or no?
― deej, Friday, 21 March 2008 20:26 (sixteen years ago) link
I think so. Coz I would have added them to the folder at the time.
― Raw Patrick, Friday, 21 March 2008 20:31 (sixteen years ago) link
Fuck. The City Lights is still the short version.

No one seems to have mentioned Tears For Fears b-side/side-project "Johnny Panic and The Bible of Dreams". Balearic as fuck.

i picked up the Sueño Latino 1991 Remix 12" and was playing it at home and wifee asked i take it off because it was too "flutey and patooty".
― jaxon, Thursday, 3 April 2008 18:45 (sixteen years ago) link
granted i was playing it at 33 instead of 45 and the flutes do start to sound pretty Enigma-y
embrace the enigma
― max, Thursday, 3 April 2008 18:49 (sixteen years ago) link
there is definitely a line that i am willing to cross where it comes w/ this stuff that most of my friends arent
i bought the Donna Summers "State of Independence" 7" a long time ago and kinda threw it off to the side not really feeling it, but after hearing it in the context of the rest of these balearic tracks, i really really like it.
