this is a thread for the BALEARIC REVIVAL

excellent Hassell/Eno-inspired stuff from Kaoru Inoue

https://store.groovement.net/album/em-paz-lp-gos003lp

https://stubbed.bandcamp.com/track/we-are-launching-feat-jane-weaver

I don't really know Jane Weaver's music (or Stubb, who is another alias of Flash Atkins) but this is lovely - reminds me of the Open Space remix of "Freedom Of The Floor" but a bit more Cocteau Twins

I made a mix that people in this thread may enjoy: https://www.mixcloud.com/biznotic/same-dream-again/

featuring: Kelly Lee Owens, Taken By Trees, Primal Scream, Underworld, Lindstrom & Prins Thomas, Bjorn Torske & Idjut Boys, Tommy Awards and Mark Barrott.

Roman Flügel goes balearic? Themes 2LP on ESP Institute in October.

New Dream Chimney mix from Hatchback:

New Domenique Dumont is very good, a little more guitar jammy than the first one. Still fairly brief and beautiful.

Open Space ft Harriet Brown - "Hot Weather"

I think this is the right thread to say that the "Who Are You" album by E Ruscha V is v blissed out, here's the title track:

Pretty sure his Secret Circuit stuff is discussed upthread somewhere. so yes.

Recently been enjoying the Antoine Kogut mini album that taps into the sort of sleazy, Gallic pop that Air, Gainsbourg and Tellier often produce

Feeling those Antoine Kogut tracks

This is on The Trilogy Tapes, not known for their Balearic releases

This one's from a compilation of Rex Ilusivii's tracks on Versatile from earlier this year. He's also had releases on Vladimir Ivkovic's excellent Offen label

Oh damn...

Very nice !

A little different direction, more of a techno vibe, but still very chill

Been working my way through Picadilly Records' Compilations of the Year. Lots of good stuff as usual but the Club Meduse one is fantastic - comes across as a slightly more chilled version of those Psychemagik Magik Cyrkle/Sunrise etc comps (which is no surprise as it's on Danny's Spacetalk label).

really good record that

Test Pressing have started a new thing called the TP Files where there'll be 320 MP3s of songs they're digging available to download.

First three are up today

New album out early next year

That Club Meduse comp is very much my shit.

Another great jam from Smith & Mudd:

Pete Brandt's Method - What You Are (1980)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY320Jk82i4

Can anyone recommend bands that sound like Antena? Because I just got the reissue of the Camino Del Sol EP and it's ace

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jo6xtPtvn-g

Some chilled out vibes from the Scottish Highlands inspired by Celtic mythology. This album was made with the assistance of Forestry Commission Scotland, which is something that I don't think that you can say that about most of the other music in this thread

Paolo, try Domenique Dumont

Thanks but I'm already into them :)

Figured it was possible! Always worth mentioning just in case.

Oh damn...

Finally got around to listening to this and I think I've finally resigned myself to something I have suspected for some time: the two volumes of Sketches From An Island--which I've listened to more times than I could possibly count--were a fluke. Like everything else I've checked out by MB, this recent album does nothing for me whatsoever. I'll try again, because in theory I'm a big MB fan (well, based on those two albums, anyway), but probably won't be buying this one.

This one is very different, but has its own charms

I think its worth noting that he admitted he wasn't trying to do Sketches 3 or a similar approach, and it was released on Running Back which these days is known more for bigroom house than anything, rather than his own label

He has a bunch of really good singles and eps that are worth checking out for more of that sketches vibe.

He's an old head... he put out a lot of stuff in the 90s too (future loop foundation etc)

I really love Nature Sounds of the Balearics. To me he’s just as good at the techno/house side as his sketches from an island vibe

He's an old head... he put out a lot of stuff in the 90s too (future loop foundation etc)

Also in Talamanca System with Gerd Janson and (Phillip) Lauer.

I'm liking the samples I'm hearing of this Attilio album

Also this amazing Mike Cooper album just got a repress:

New Apiento track is very good

omniboi - gucci

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbNjHBM47bs

this was originally a remix of lil pump "gucci gang" by a producer named omniboi... the remix is cute but the instrumental is a slice of balearic heaven imo

the video of him playing the remix live in his bedroom is dope tho

This is lovely except for one of the tracks near the end which has a really high pitched tone all the way through and is pretty much unlistenable

any other balearic fans loving the helado negro album? it's not really balearic but i get v similar feelings out of its sounds. (and it's such a good album.)

Ace!
