Been enjoying flopson's taste in music lately.

Aside from hating on kreayshawn obv

this is tough. one of: can't be serious, woman of the world, memories, and hallucinations is my fisrt inclination

thx i do have great tatse in music it's true, keep an eye out for dj flops1: ilm eunuch eclectic vol. i

lol

would listen

i'm a pretty big fan of the stretch from "can't be serious" all the way to "don't you know i did it"

i saw harvey play a beach party here in hawaii just three days ago. a half hour before sunset he put on E2-E4. about 25 minutes in i went up to him and asked, "are you going to play this one all the way through?" he smiled huge and replied "of course, man!" it was dark by the time the song's 58th minute rolled around. the mixture of an epic sunset with an epic track orchestrated by such a master selector created something hard to describe. it will probably remain one of my top 5 musical moments for the rest of my life.

*wipes tear from eye*

Not many could pull that off. I remember reading in Muzik magazine about 15 years ago that a DJ submitted a mix for Bedroom DJ of the Month had done this - much hilarity that 2/3rds of mix was one record! Balearic state of mind etc..

Another vote for Logic System

love clash but this is the best logic system song & i can't see past it

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

so i saw this "art show" the other day where someone connected a bunch of torn out magazine pages w/yarn and thumbtacks. anyways, there was one page with what i thought was harvey in a cowboy hat in front of a air stream with a naked chick. was this really him? anyone seen this photo?

that was pipecock

Greatest mix ever, changed my life etc.. voted for Ginny

Where is the Bryan ferry track from?

memories cracks me up so much "one thing about it, i really really remember you!"

went for Can't Be Serious

can't be serious is when shit starts to get serious

someone know a link for this. i lost my copy in a harddrive switch a few yrs ago :(

also looking for the single-file version of 'sonic disco #1'

webmailin u

thnx boo

np u should learn to use the internet tho its p useful

can & possibly will listen to this every day for the rest of the summer

how did it change your life blank?

'use the internet'?? i couldnt find it w/ cursory google searches \Oo/

sonic disco #1 changed my life cuz i heard that one first

haha forgot how slow he plays logic syst

think i have sonic disco somewhere is that the one with
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K24mgg2NgQ
?

nah i think thats sonic disco 3... 1 & 2 were bootleg verions of free mixes that used to be up on the ps1 site, sonic sisco 1 starts w/ the rub + tug remix of the beastie boys iirc

this is from the promo for his japanese tour!

http://hidden-champion.net/shared/images/entries_img/DJ-HARVEY-TOUR2011_A5_Flyer_omote_.jpg

such a don

this plus Better Than A Spoonful Of Leather made 2006 a pretty great year for me

have to say doe his Ministry Of Sound mix is the one for me

i voted Antena

the ministry of sound mix is ... so difft from this stuff. i wasnt rlly into it but maybe i should give it another shot

surprised nobody's riding for double or antena

yeah i mean they're pretty much apples and oranges in terms of style, it's just that instinctual genius for pacing and inspired selection coupled with a completely unfuckwithable tracklist -- "garden of earthly delights", "new jersey deep", "not reggae", "new day" etcetc. totally sets out a vibe in the first few bars of the first record and rides it out seamlessly over the entire mix. i'm not always into that kinda tasteful gilles peterson endorsed flat cap wearing dude house but he somehow manages to make it sound so exhilarating

This really has to be one of the most influential single mixes of the last 10 years.

The first A Mountain of One EP is like a band rerecording the first 30 minutes live.

when did it drop?

I don't really know the history of the sarcastic disco mix? When did it stop being something that people only had if they'd bought clothes from Sarcastic and an actual widespread phenom? Earliest mention here is 2005 (by Vahid of course).

AMO1 first EP was late 2006 or early 2007 I think - even includes a cover of "Can't Be Serious".

i remember reading that lindstrom called this mix 'the album of the century'

They both out-hippy almost everyone so its not surprising.

time was, a man could play e2e4 all the way through

voted Camino del sol - Isabelle Antena

If I were to destroy only one, it'd be the Claudia berry.. So boring

WHAT

rong

I'll take the drums, lose the rest

BUH
BUH
BUH
BUH

Someone vote for madam x, that shit still cracks me up

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

ha, yeah just checked the paradise garage top 100 and "e2-e4" is totally on there. NEVERMIND

didn't vote in time but i would have been the lone backer for "my boss"

obv claudja barry has the best track here. not sure how its glory wouldn't be apparent from any possible angle, but if you think it's boring, try... listening to the chorus again? i mean there is lush melody packed into just about every corner of the song, but srsly. btw, anyone know where to find the extended version outside the 'selections from sarcastic disco' (bootleg? so crackly) - or for that matter have there been any good edits?

i'm surprised that holger czukay didn't pull any votes. or hallucinations! such a great track, i'm gonna put it on now - i can't even think of it without it stuck in my head for the next week

Hollywood Symphony was my second choice. And Our Prayer third. I love the whole first half so much, the sequencing and everything is perfect.

Any news on his long awaited first UK date/s in forever? Or did it happen and I missed it?

i dont think so? afaik the last time he played in london was in 2008 and i missed it...

If it was then, then so did I! But I thought the whole deal was he was playing for the first time outside the US in a decade last summer in Europe and Japan, but was going to play the UK at some point.

i think he played at the big chill bar? i'm sure i remember reading abt it like the week after it happened

google says yes - http://www.giglocator.com/dj-harvey-0467b82119

Good googling. I missed that entirely at the time. And it's just down the road.

Lol at the votes for the poz's

Listened to this for the very first time EVER today, whilst strolling round Nunhead cemetery (also for the first time)...holy fuck. I was on some next-level transcendent shit, mind blown. Cheers Harvey.

u can't be serious no one makes a fool of meeeee

that logic system track never sounds right to me at normal speed.

he ist the living legend

i was just listening to this today

Love for the sake of love - Claudja Barry
We Have Come To Bless This House - Severed Heads
Transfer Station Blue -Michael Shrieve
Hallucinations - Roy Budd

only know these 4, all of which are great

Finally got to play Memories in a club on Saturday...shame that its the loudest song of all time and the owners screamed at me to turn it down/off lol

Denver, Colorado!

I rillllly rilllllly remember you

I still HAVE mem-o-ries

^^^^ weirdest diction on this part

This is it btw

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJMKjPLZc1s

nice

ya all the overdubs and transitions are just insane, i can never tell whether i'm listening to the current track, or the next track fading in, or just some weird sfx

really wanna throw a party where i just hit play on this and watch ppl go nuts

nice

john forde was robbed tho

LOOOOOL

The reissue is avail to pre-order on CD at harvey.dj. Throwing in some more support for Love for the Sake of Love. First spring-y day of the year a few years ago, I had it come up on shuffle on my iPod and just let it ride out on repeat for a long walk home.

Also surprised Holger Czukay didn't get a single vote but it is tough competition.

ahaha $20 plus $7 shipping, fuck you dj harvey

I ordered one

he is god

$20 for digital only? That's a tough sell unless this is just preliminary to some physical copy at the same price (as with the Sarcastic Disco CD).

says it's a preorder on his bandcamp

is that Map of Africa CD worth picking up while I'm at it with the Sarcastic Disco mix?

$20 for the CD and then there's shipping, which is pushing it. I did order a copy because stupid hype aside it is an all-time great mix.

I could never get into his psychedelic, 70s rock stuff but you can listen to it all on his bandcamp.

got an email alert for mercury rising "volumen tres" on bandcamp but the link is dead and i can't find any info anywhere else about it

Volumen Tres now out (and on streaming services)
