this is a thread for the BALEARIC REVIVAL

that mix is awesome and i realllllly want an mp3

i found one fairly easily on s1sk if you wanna go that route

on the same just-the-right-side-of-cheesy, this is huge for me (not the longer 7-minute version i have but still very nice):

speaking of the blue nile, i have this balearic mike set on my computer where he drops an instrumental version of "heatwave" - was surprised at how well it worked in the context of the set

can you leonardo/blog the mp3? i can't soulseek.

There are no issues with posting full mixes here by the way.

rad, ty for clarification

i luv blue nile

the more shit that sounds like blue nile, the better this world is imo

what is this david cassidy donna summer mix

two youtubes up

this is the first i have heard of the dmc or 'disco music club'. makes me wonder how many other awesome songs are on this series of dj-only monthly promo records

david cassidy donna summer and the dj kaos tyedie mix have been blowin' my mind all day

cant stop playing that laurent voulzy -- nice find

there's a lot going on in it - just a great song all around

this is the first i have heard of the dmc or 'disco music club'. makes me wonder how many other awesome songs are on this series of dj-only monthly promo records

The only other one I know is this New Order one - which I'm not sure is balearic (and the guy who posted this Youtube vid found it in the same place I did). Doesn't seem to any thread on DMC mixes. Perhaps we should start one...

Balearic content in this post... anyone heard the House of House remix of A Mountain of One yet?

for those without soulseek access, here's the donna summer/david cassidy megamix - http://www.divshare.com/download/7640937-c07

i guess the dmc is a really prominent organization for battle-djs/turntablists etc, so i feel silly now for not having heard about it

ya, i was wondering if it was the same DMC. so are these things like current mashups then?

o jeez listened to that fuckin donna summer/cassidy thing like six million times already

k-k-k-killin it

SF peeps - Balearic Mike is in town this week and has a few gigs lined up - happy hour at Triple Crown on Thursday *and* Friday (6-10pm) and then Beards of a Feather at Lazlo on Tuesday...he's excited to play and is a great DJ so come out!

Anyone heard the Kool DJ Dust record? Lots of spacey re-edited disco loops, excellent summer fun.

Hoping to hear some good Balearic vibes, there's no clubs interested in the movement whatsoever here in Oporto. Any advice on how much earlier one should show up? I'm guessing this'll be packed, being free and all?

henrik schwarz on beats in space played a fantastic remix of something by 'visti & meyland', i assume that's our man, check it out because it's good.

the henrik schwarx remix is great in it's own right, but the original is a rad little nu-balearic cut with spanish guitars, tribal percussion etc that i can't get enough of right now. the old bluesy sample is pretty effective, too- even if it weirdly reminds me of moby or something

that sample bugs the shit out of me which is sad since the track is great

^^^completely understandable, actually

i dig it even if it's definitely gimmicky

tensnake mix on beats in space = a++

If you buy the CD it comes with a second CD full of mp3s of all the tracks unmixed. You can listen to all of the tracks here

01. Hot Toddy feat. Ron Basejam - I Need Love

haha this guy is doing balearic now??

Some of the previous Hot Toddy stuff was pretty close anyway. Which duo is he in again? Crazy Penis?

that dance disorder track is good.

that hot toddy track is pretty good too. looks like this comp should turn out much better than the first, even though i seem to be one of the only people defending it anymore ("don't turn away from my love" still gets loads of rotation on my tables)

and i know i'm being kinda spammy this morning but you can dl that visti and meyland track here

the new cosmic balearic beats is like 100x better than the first

I really liked the first volume. I started listening to it again a few weeks ago but I can see where the criticisms levelled at it on the Disco Horror blog are coming from

there's a ton of discussion upthread about the first volume. i don't remember specifics but everyone else kinda decided they were disappointed- i think i was saying that i preferred it to fred deakin's 'nu balearica' comp on ministry of sound but nobody agreed, etc.

i don't even agree with that anymore tho ha

The Milky Disco series is my favourite I think.

it's not that i hated Cosmic Balearic Beats Vol 1, but it just kinda fell flat on the mix side. wasn't bad though. but the second one is really rad. I feel similarly about the Milky Disco series. Vol 2 >>> Vol 1, but Vol 1 isn't bad

07. Premier Rang - Zoé et Heine

there's a new 12" by them on IDIB that I saw at other music the other day but I didn't know what they were all about, anyone heard?

I had a hard time listening to Fred Deakin's Nu Balearica (CD 2). Is it just me or it really is boring?

balearic is boring
