this is a thread for the BALEARIC REVIVAL

I'm not really getting a balearic vibe from this William Tyler album, but it is nice.

ditto

not sure if its exactly this thread for it but the dudes in tommy awards have a new-ish tape out called 'sessions II' that i think is fantastic. its on the more cosmic end of balearic but its probably my favorite new thing so far this year

Think it may have been brought up in the new age thread? i remember reading about it on here. great tape though. the Origin People label & folks running it are great.

It was mentioned upthread. Tommy Awards are a perfect fit for this thread

i thought some of william tyler was kinda like michael rother or goettsching a tiny bit, but probably not perfectly at home itt.

yeah i thought this was the thread we talked about katzenmusik but apparently not

It was mentioned upthread

owned :/

Smith & Mudd album is ace.

Dogwood is such a fucking jam.

is this thread ok to post about 'vintage' balearic reissues? vintage downtempo/funky new age?

- how did i miss last year's Leon Lowman 2-fer (on Vinyl On Demand)?

- also missed Computer Incantations For W

whoops

- also missed Computer Incantations For World Peace Volume 3. Tracklist looks fun.

1. Anna Domino - "Caught"
2. Quintus Project - "Night Flight" (original)
3. Jazzanova - "Introspection" (Calm Outerspect mix)
4. Mode IQ - "Competition"
5. Tuff City Kids - "Altona"
6. Love International - "Airport Of Love"
7. Obalski - "Lobo's Point"
8. Jaone - "Taxanetsie Brothers" (Moire Patterns edit)
9. Georges Rodi & Dave Sarkys - "Swiftness"
10. Mkwaju Ensemble - "Mkwaju"
11. Plaza Hotel - "Bewegliche Ziele"
12. Brenda & The Beach Balls - "Theme From A Tall Dark Stranger"
13. Amanita - "Sol Y Sombra"

Mix of old and new on that one, I guess. Was hoping for another all vintage set.

Feels like we already have a year's worth of top shelf albums with Baltic Beat, Smith & Mudd and Mark Barrott.

RA rips the CFCF remix EP but they are right about the Pharaohs "Pleasure Centre" remix being a good one. https://www.residentadvisor.net/reviews/19356

really feeling the wolf muller and cass record, this lengthy track is the centrepiece i guess.

Could not agree with this more. I keep returning to that Baltic Beat record and it keeps sounding better and better. Love that one. The title track is the stand out, but the second side is nearly as good.

Also, that Quiet Village remix comp is so killer. That Francois K remix is probably my fave.

Latest 12" from Music From Memory

Just ordered the Smith & Mudd and Baltic Beat. Expecting them to soundtrack the end of summer.

I'm also digging that Baltic Beat album. Just got "Vito Ricci - I was Crossing a Bridge" on Music From Memory... https://www.discogs.com/Vito-Ricci-I-Was-Crossing-A-Bridge/release/6946911

Suso Sáiz – Odisea (also on Music From Memory) is another great piece worth investigating...https://www.discogs.com/Suso-Sáiz-Odisea/release/8537045

And last but certainly not least, I've really been enjoying Darwis by Parra for Cuva & Senoy...It's not exactly Balearic, but maybe your tastes are more diverse and this is stuff that deserves to be heard..."Sacred Feathers", the lead track on the album", gets me every time...https://www.discogs.com/Parra-For-Cuva-Senoy-Darwiš/release/8583467

I basically just listened to those two, Sketches 2 and Wilson Tanner on a continuous loop on my recent holiday to Southern France xp

that the system track is amazing. wow.

also like the suso saiz record - i mean p much everything on international feel and music from memory is really good.

seems like a lot of these niche reissue labels are taking their cues from music-sharing blogs

i've been noticing this for over a decade... a blog sharing obscure music shares some obscure, semi-forgotten album, and some time later it's given a boutique reissue. although now the time lag seems be to getting shorter. that system album was shared on a prominent blog about a year and a half ago.

Been playing Wilson Tanner and Sketches 2 a ton myself. Just drove down the coast of Vancouver Island listening to Sketches 2. Probably an experience I'll never forget.

Mark Barrott's wikipedia entry is pretty good.

best quote: "Anything over 110bpm sounds like gabba to me"

this sounds interesting

did anyone listen to that beverly-glenn cropland track up there?

I did. It's very good but the vocal kills repeat listen potential for me. Would love an instrumental of that though.

Not sure if it's been mentioned upthread but there's an hour long live set (and free download) from Bartosz Kruczyński (Baltic Beat) and Marek Pędziwiatr over on Soundcloud:

This album is so lovely.

yeah when i posted the vid upthread i didn't realise it had already been mentioned literally two posts above. it is great.

just discovered this monster on an old Harvey mix, it's incredible

Was listening to the William Tyler album posted upthread and it occurred to me that this Michael Chapman tune is probably the closest I can think of for a perfect midpoint between the respective bailiwicks of this here place and the Revolt of the ILX Brigade post-Fahey thread:

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

just wish they'd maybe slowed it to 33 tbh

Man, that Shy Layers LP is so good

Mark Barrott - 'Brunch with Suki' passes the George Benson - 'Breezin' pepsi challenge

haha - a 10 on the saturday morning making breakfast scale.

"Brunch with Suki" is on the nose charming in a way that seems much err ~braver~ than a lot of nu-balearic.

a 10 on the saturday morning making breakfast scale.

o hell ya... shits screaming to be jaunty cooking-breakfast-danced to

rest of the album sounded kinda meh tbh
