this is a thread for the BALEARIC REVIVAL

Is "Bones" with the Way of the Ancients remix out on digital yet?

try the hype machine....

think 20JFG has an extremely loud mp3 of "Bones" posted. which will be fine, since playing out a picture disc will sound fairly shitty.

haha the montee album is a trip!! not sure ill listen to it more than a couple times but im glad someone is still making music like this

i think 1 of the mungolian jet set dudes has something to do w/ that montee album

they say that the original music on tele music remixed haven't been released yet. so how come there's an arpadys song in there (monkey star)?

ya ya, and funky bass get's a rework by the idjut boys. i know arpadys had a lot to do with the library tele music comes from, but the whole unreleased thing seems inaccurate if only for the arpadys tracks

definitely among the contenders for my favorite mix this year... Vidal Benjamin - Balearic Nightmare

all vintage, oddball balearic stuff in a variety of languages with irresistibly catchy hooks. the lack of a track listing for this one is killing me, especially b/c of the one at about 57:08 with the chorus that ends in "de los dos!" that i totally recognize and instantly sang along to and likely already have an mp3 of but cannot for the life of me pin down wtf it actually is!

what other linda difranco should i seek out besides tv scene and my boss, which i already have?

track around 33min in that vidal benjamin mix: 1ere classe - "la fille qui rit"

dunno any of the rest of it

was kinda confused and thinking that max was looking for ani difranco rec.s and was wondering when she became considered balearic

the 'rise of the heart' album has both of her singles and some other tunes produced by don was. i've been thinking about shelling out the $$ for a copy but haven't heard anything besides the singles and a questionable "look of love" cover

thanx for the nice comments about balearic nightmare... psychgawsple, the track you're looking for is Guy Cuevas, Obsession (FK mix)...

obsession is my all time i wish i had track. fuck paying 100$ for a 12". wish that funky nassau comp came out on vinyl.

psych. there's a copy of the lp on ebay for 25$ buy it now ending today. if i didn't just get back from vacationing on the other side of the world, i would totally buy it.

braggin

welcome to ilx vidalb! your mix is the shit! i had actually already figured out about the guy cuevas track (thx to sanfrandisco) and was kicking myself because it's my favorite track on funky nassau and i couldn't connect the dots. i seriously need to step it up with my trainspotting game

i would totally buy that di franco lp if i had the $$ too man, times is tight

thank you psychgawsple, if you're a member of DJH you can PM there...cheers...V

it's kinda surprising but i'm really into this new coyote full-length- http://www.discogs.com/Coyote-Harlyn-Bay/release/1868893- not too different from the new sorcerer record but full of '90s basslines and chillout-tent vibes. and they even ease up on the cheesy vocal samples a bit

If you like the Vidal's mix you might like the one we just put up yesterday by Chris over at http://plaidmusic.blogspot.com/

i duno if this is old news or what but i recently came across this huuuuge list that looks like an extension of that top 25 balearic tracks thing djhistory did a few years ago... http://es-es.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=93738961786&ref=mf&_fb_noscript=1

Russ Abbot - Atmosphere (Spirit, 1984)

I recommend this Balearic classic off that list to any Americans who have never had the luck to hear it.

have you guys heard the new track from norwegians Moland & French called "We can beat the Congo if we Beat our Bongos"? might be produced by one of the guys from Studio. total kate bait.

The Chateau Flight Remix of Spectral Empire is nice and cosmic-y at 104bpm...

http://www.myspace.com/spectralempire

And the Hatchback Remix of They Came From The Stars I Saw Them's THE UNSTOPPABLE KITE totally kills...

http://www.myspace.com/theycamefromthestarsisawthem

Both plugs for my label but, you know, both deserve a wide audience.

YSI?

the upcoming Kreidler release has a track called (you guessed it) "Balearic" that is a nice little tribute to this style.

ha. guess i wasn't the only one making that joke above :-/

new Music Go Music vid

http://flavorwire.com/39721/exclusive-qa-and-video-debut-music-go-music

I love Music Go Music a lot, but it's not really balearic, is it ?

And the Hatchback Remix of They Came From The Stars I Saw Them's THE UNSTOPPABLE KITE totally kills...
So true, one of my favorite tracks this year

off to see music go music on friday, lookin fwd to it

I love Music Go Music a lot, but it's not really balearic, is it ?

I dunno, not really. thought this was the thread where people were talking about em before

jeez not everything is etc etc

Well thanks for the link anyway.

i kinda can't stop listening to the quiet village remix of jonathan jeremiah's "happiness"... http://rcrdlbl.com/artists/Jonathan_Jeremiah/track/Happiness_Quiet_Village_Remix. those strings!

and i think i posted a link to this on another thread, but the morgan geist remix adds some juicy balearic synth-bass and is also pretty great. no strings tho, sadly

wow. feeling the jonathan jeremiah. completely reminds me of my favorite 70s singer songwriter types like cyrus faryar. and jazz singer michael murphy. he gets the 70s the way findlay brown does.

sorry, mark murphy

mark murphy is awesome :)

ooh btw, epic 3-hour Balearic Mike set up in the Mendocino hills this past weekend. should be posted within a few months, i'll be sure to let yalls know so you can witness, dude is a fantastic DJ...
i also have another set from a garden party earlier this summer but the recording levels are kinda fucked. should I still post?

Yeah Balearic Mike has been great every time I've seen him, love to hear that if you don't mind posting?

he played The Do-Over in LA a few weeks ago (with Flying Lotus and DJ Craze if you can believe it) and if you google their website, you can download his set. i'll have another one for you as soon as I can host it.

Just listening to the do-over set now, good stuff, thanks. I'm sure I've heard him play that Paul Simon track before

*i've* played that Paul Simon track before ;)

btw, very much on a Balearic tip is the new rework of Saint Etienne's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" by Richard X, just released on 12" with a couple others (including Air France doing "Spring") and it is an absolutely killer 105bpm balearic jam (much like the original i suppose). sold out at Piccadilly & Juno but in stock at Amoeba SF :)

which paul simon track?

Doesn't anybody like Boat Club? http://www.discogs.com/Boat-Club-Caught-The-Breeze/release/1121439 is awesome.

which paul simon track?
