BEARDO DISCO (finally fixed for vahid) - not idjuts / lindstrom - harvey, rub'n'tug, map of africa

anyway i'm trying to get my head round this style of mixing, any tips?

rotary mixers otm

do what greg does in that video, have two copies of something and delay one by a bit to get some cool fx with your crossfader. have an outboard delay too, ideally a reel to reel or something expensive and old, with knobs on, self oscillation is your friend here, plan your sets a bit, like hiphop and turntablism, work out what works well together, get a leather jacket, take lots of drugs and pretend you're god, learn to play an instrument and get in a hip band, deal drugs, have an entourage, bookmark all scott seward threads, the world's your oyster man

:]

self oscillation is your friend here

?

i get a cool reel-to-reel delay effect when recording to audacity then sending my computer's output in to a 3rd channel on the mixer #pr0tip

i have a delay, i've been leaning on it a bit like this: wait for climactic part of track - delay into crashing waves of noise - freeze delay - slam in next track

but tbh it doesn't really sound that great when the tempos are off

i think that's my big stumbling block: seems like the range of tempos here is pretty big and the songs don't sound so great pitched up or down (cosmic dj styles aside)

yeah I feel you. I once gathered disco tracks to create a mix and they range from 90-130 and I had difficulties weaving them together.

by the way, has anyone tried to mix from/into "sweet dynamite (todd terje edit)"? does the tempo on this track increase wildly or what?

this has to be beardo: https://soundcloud.com/chrome-sparks/marijuana

we were talking about Idris M 4 years ago. gr8080 can i get a ruling on the above? its all digital filter shit so i just dont know actually now i dont care.

beard trap music

sounds like ima hate it

any electronica music w "trap" attached to it can gtfo imo

I am not yet totally sick of summer k-holes. haze is mb generally an ominous adjective in 2013, but that track is has a mike oldfield style doubled guitar riff which does not sound stale to me

yeah that guitar is terrific

man, wish I could go to this

More nu-cosmic disco than beardo but this tune rules...

I saw Dr Dunks close to a year ago exactly! it was one of the best sets I've ever heard, just Eric playing all kinds of shit until 7 AM.

i ended up not going :(

^ this happens to me way too often. i think we need a thread to bump when people get super excited to go see an out-of-town DJ and still somehow neglect to go for whatever reason

sounds like a great thread

we can call it I'M OLD AND CRANKY AND DON'T GO OUT BY MYSELF ANYMORE

i want every dj night to have a boiler-room-style live feed so that i can stay at home and still avoid FOMO

great reissue on golf channel

is this really the only post on ilx about the spike album? this shit is soooo good. seems like it would cross over to the non-beardo/balearic heads pretty well, too.

my buddies in philly made a mix of deep chuggy '70s funk rawk and i thought some of you might dig it: https://soundcloud.com/#universalcave/hongry

also - why is nobody talking about spike?

because they don't know

yr linked is busted

i like spike!

There's some posts about the Spike album on this thread, some of them by yourself karl.

It is indeed, the bomb.

ugh i keep making that mistake with souncloud links, thx

lol you know i'm not karl, right?

we were talking about it a little on the beardo balearic canon thread, i just saw the solitary posts above and thought spike deserved justice. i didn't realize that golf channel had put out two spike eps in 2011/2012, with remixes etc

spike is thee shit

wasnt feeling it first time i listened.

maybe i should give it another go

it's definitely rough around the edges and "outsider"-y, i could see how an aversion to ariel pink et al could leave a sour taste in your mouth for this kind of thing

it's that legit 80's outsider shit, though, so no hipster irony to feel guilty about ;)

The Spike is pure gold

Oh hey, I found out when beardo disco was born:

Ad is from 1971.

i want one!

I spend a lot of time in antique and vintage stores, and musical instrument stores. It always amazes when something was made well within my lifetime and yet I've never seen anything like it.

Awesome!

Here's my friend Roger Bong's mix of Hawaiian soul & disco records mostly from the 70's & 80's. I had no idea that Hawaiian soul was indeed a thing before recording this, and I think beardo disco heads will dig it.

if you know him you are probably extremely sick of this but roger bong is the best name

been hearing a lot lately about the massive amounts of $$ dudes are starting to drop on hawaiian records, i think it's obviously always been a 'thing' but w/in record collecting circles it's been getting a lot of attention lately

Heh, that's his given name. Yeah, Roger's the best digger of this genre that I know, and this is all he's trying o play... J Rocc was out here in the islands for the a few weeks back and I heard he spent a grip at the Hungry Ear record shop in Kailua. I didn't know it was so hype tho.

idk i've only heard about it from a few people i guess, but there was a little movie featurette on xlr8r that someone shared with me (featuring mr bong) recently, and i guess the psychemagik guys are getting into it (the steve and teresa track "catching a wave" is on the magik sunrise mix/comp)
