this is a thread for the BALEARIC REVIVAL

will check that one out.

thank you for posting on the balearic thread, please come again.

ha, i think my energy levels are at about 2% right now, i'm sure i would have made a less robotic post if my brain wasn't bumbling along in energy-saving mode

no, i was just joking about the last two posts being me dumping mixes here!

I talked my friend into making an edit of Can't Run, But after hearing it in that mix posted upthread. Here it is: https://soundcloud.com/marshall_watson/cant-run-paul-simon-marshall-watson-edit

Got both CFCF albums yesterday. I knew Radiance & Submission was coming out but The Colours of Life was a complete surprise (and is my favourite of the two

https://1080pcollection.bandcamp.com/album/the-colours-of-life

oh i only know about the colours of life. was prompted to check it out by the boomkat update mentioning phil collins' "hand in hand" in the blurb, have always loved that song

working backwards now and listening to outside from 2013 - similar vibe to gigi masin's song stuff, it's good

not waking me up much though, that's for sure

Make sure to check out his mini-album Exercises. One of my favourite releases from the last few years. Definitely won't wake you up though

i will do that for sure

The Colours of Life indeed a very pleasant surprise. His latest vocal albums (Outsiders & R&S, awesome artwork though on the latter) don't really appeal to me tbh, but this is a return to form. The River EP still his best imo, much in the same vein as TCOL, and apparently inspired from Fitzcarraldo.

I'm not so sure about the Werner Herzog connection with The River but there's one track that's def influenced by the Popul Vuh soundtrack. I'll rep for the Exercises EP as his peak so far but maybe that's because I slightly prefer his influences on that one (Sylvian, Sakamoto.) If you prefer Security-era Gabriel or Steve Reich, then your top pick will likely differ.

I'd agree that R&S is a vocal album in the same way that Another Green World is a vocal album. But it is a damn fine album for sunsets.

Horsebeach's 2nd album drops next month

Pitchfork goes Balearic with a feature By Philip Sherburne

The Tide Is High: 10 Records from the Balearic Revival
http://pitchfork.com/thepitch/878-the-tide-is-high-10-records-from-the-balearic-revival/

Tagged: CFCF, Edizioni Mondo, Hatchback, Idjut Boys, Mark Barrott, Ruf Dug, Suzanne Kraft, The Loose Control Band, Woolfy vs. Projections

tho it is annoying to get recommendations for un-released stuff, and the only place i could hear it was with effing tim sweeney talking over a good portion of it, "that ibiza track" is pretty great. are there other "sunrain" re-works like this out there?

this just about belongs here - hunee has been doing a residency at nts - dunno if you guys listen to his sets but i find him one of the best for digging and generally great selections:

also the mark barrett album is good - dunno if anyone mentioned that here.

I think the Mark Barrott album might have had one or two mentions. Has anyone got his Music For Pilates album or whatever it's called?

Sunrain re-works? - there's this of course:

Secret Circuit track on this week's spotify Fresh Finds playlist is grade A+ rhythmic brilliance, this track levitates & transcends.

released August 28th as part of an ep Los Imaginaciones

not sure if it exactly belongs itt but the Aquarian Foundation lp Mind Miniatures is really really nice. no track divisions, just two 20+ minute sides

If there was a thread for the AMBIENT HOUSE REVIVAL it would go there nicely ;)

what happened to LG posting great mixes all the time, come back LG

oh i forgot to listen to the last one you posted, nvm we're good for now

incredible atmosphere in this thread - i hope it doesn't go too overground.

here is another good one tho since it has been at least 5/6 days:

Vangelis Katsoulis - Enigma (Young Marco Remix)

http://22tracks.com/bru/disco/66955

^^^^

apologies if this has already been posted, but it is magnificent

All the Katsoulis remixed EP on Into The Light's Bandcamp.

Yeah that Telephones rework also feels really good.

Great Phil Mison mix

https://soundcloud.com/know-wave/phil-mison-september-3-2015

I note there is also an (i guess) unofficial edit of The Slipping Beauty currently knocking about on a 12". Sounds pretty nice.

Also, Payfone - Quarantine. Love those slap bass blasts.

did this get posted yet?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyGI93fomrw

also check out the Telephones remix on the Vangelis EP.

oops, someone already got to that

It's worth repeating.

Swing as it has been mentioned again - am i imagining things or is the version on Bandcamp a slightly ropey vinyl rip? Actually thought I'd pick up the digital for a change but I want vinyl to be vinyl and digi from a clean source if possible, call me old fashioned.

Swing = seeing, but suit yourself, Telephone.

You're right, there does seem to be some surface noise in the left channel for the first bit. Not sure Into The Light used a needle drop of the remix for Bandcamp or whether Telephone sampled the vinyl instead of using stems from the original track.

I noticed that as well - my guess is that Telephones sampled the vinyl.

Oh, by the way.

2nding the Michal Turtle

this is good - bit of goettsching at the start then more into house later. tho tbh you could prob just listen to red light radio mixes and need little else:

1991 - so not really a revival
