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

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)

ok not xlr8r but http://youtu.be/rIGgb5iS0QI

Oh, very cool! Thanks for linking that video. That's my friend / Roger's GF Leimomi digging at the thrift shop. :)

Psychemagik is pretty rad I always like their stuff.

Really nice mix davey.

Trying to think where I know that Mackey Feary Band track from.

the thought of "Lihue" getting a psychemagik edit makes me nervous and excited

"The Real Thang", released by Tony Joe White on Casablanca Records in 1980. Was torn between posting this here or on the balearic beach thread, but I feel like it's got much more of a beardo edge - would be surprised if there haven't already been edits. It's a pretty great album, he manages to fuse his swampy country persona with Disco sheen in a very organic way.
