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

i recommend everyone on this thread go listen to heart's "little queen" album.

awww i love this record. culled from my pop's collection ...

Vahid, you want this thread:

hits from the eighties or whenever that have yet to be turned into brand-spanking psychedelic edits by Todd Terje or some other charming moustach-parading Scandanavian wag filling in for him, but really should be

Montreal beardos ...

that's a great flyer

anyone have the mp3 of the labelle 'moonshadow' edit?

my friend betty asked me to spam her forthcoming records -

"There will be 3 x 12" singles of Betty Botox edits released over the coming months on Tokyo's Mule Musiq offshoot, Endless Flight. These will then be compiled as a cd. All the tracks have been fully licensed and these are 100% official releases.

They are -

"Mmm, Betty Volume 1"

A1) The Residents - Diskomo
B1) Love Of Life Orchestra - Beginning Of The Heartbreak"
B2) Jellies - jive Baby On A Saturday Night

"Mmm, Betty Volume 2"

A1) Severed Heads - Greater Reward (Dub)
B1) Pankow - Girls And Boys
B2) Carlos Peron - Et

"Mmm, Betty Volume 3"

A1) Hawkwind - Valium Ten
A2) Zed - Fremen (Naum Gabo guest rework)
B1) Flying Rhythms - Doragon Balls

Some of these recordings were only available as vinyl masters and as vinyl copies were in some cases extremely rare, the audio fidelity may be somewhat compromised in places.

These reworks were constructed strictly for club play and are all 100% beat mixable. If the process or the fidelity offends your sensibilities, please track down the originals and do it yrself.

All reworks by Betty Botox, Scotland, 2008, except where otherwise stated. Betty Botox is currently incommunicado but can be contacted via ..................."

Hawkwind - Valium Ten <<< fucking love this track (the original, won't hear the edit till the CD probs).

B1) Pankow - Girls And Boys

this is maybe my favorite prince cover ever

looking forward to these betty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that Low Motion Disco mix hit me precisely where the Quiet Village didn't.

with the best drop of Matt Valentine & Erika Elder ever.

samples of the new mark e sound awesome

just picked up the Disco Italia 12" sampler that came out in May,

A1) Five Letters - Tha Kee Tha Tha
A2) Tullio De Piscopo - 'E Fatto ' Sorde! E? (Maxessa Edit)
B) Gepy & Gepy - African Love Song (Kotey Edit)

the kotey edit is fun but the Max Essa edit is dubby and awesome

i dont know if this fits into this thread - i guess it's more just straight disco but anyway. it's from the invite to a monthly club night here in london called disco bloodbath - http://www.zshare.net/audio/1419424060be1559/

Thought this would be a revive to say that Dan Selzer is playing the Star of Bethnal Green, London on July 26th.

I should be there if anyone else will be.

i think i could be. love that crazy rhythms mix he did

late night blog post

please spread the word and come out!

Baldelli just released an album called "Cosmic Sound" but thats probably ot because a) its wall-to-wall tribal drumming and b) Baldelli has no beard

so i FINALLY found a domestic-priced release of this album. pretty crazy stuff. there's some great hypnotic whooshy tribal house about halfway in, very west coast. and some great synthesizer instrumentals in the vein of a slowed-down logic system or a dubbed-out patrick cowley. and some maurice fulton type funk. great, great stuff!!

anyone heard Elaste 2??? thought it would be slo-mo druggy stuff but its pretty uptempo and dancey

xp i was kind of let down by the cosmic sound lp. it kind of has the same problem metro area has for me, their (in this case, his) own productions pale to the tracks they/he spin(s)... just kind of generic sounding to me... the track "cosmic parsley" from that 'original cosmic sound' mix last year is pretty dope though!

re: elaste too, yeah that doesn't surprise me considering how uptempo a lot of the stuff on vol. 1 was. it seemed such a wasted opputunity to put logic system's "clash" on there without slowing it down (fucking "SLOW MOTIOM DISCIO FFS")

i'm really feelin' the new Blackdisco 12" by lee douglas, the douglas sound ep

still undecided on the new beard science with the edit of tusk

wow! B2 is a cover of Fuego's track Misa Criolia (We Are The Children).

would love to hear that. think i spent the most on a 12" on that original record

ill post once i convert to mp3

not feeling new beard science.

has anyone heard the new Coyote EP?

yes. it's good.

anyone talked about Soft Rocks? Disco Power Play III is sweet

http://www.flexx.be/item/srdlp3

I've got Midnight Drive/Look East by Soft Rocks. That's fab in a slo-mo atmospheric way. Great weird artwork too.

http://www.flexx.be/item/soft04

They also run a music shop, where they even sell things "covered up" - which I've never heard of before!

If anyone is going to the Brick Lane Rough Trade they have loads of copies of the amazing 10" of John Miles "Stranger in the City (Pilooski Edit)" for 2 quid each.

I bought three; one for me, one for my brother and one for my girlfriend. She now owns two vinyl records (the other being the soundtrack LP to Animalympics).

THIS RECORD

i dunno, the prins thomas miks on that doesn't do as much for me as his miks on Luke Solomon - Robots, which is so much more orchestral with flutey bits...

ill post once i convert to mp3

sorry took me a few days, here's the fuego edit, but i think cum n' go is my fave

https://www.yousendit.com/download/Q01Fb242Zy9iR0pFQlE9PQ

sorry double link post, oops

I think the Brennan Green remix is the key track on the "Cosmorama" 12" actually.

B2 is a cover of Fuego's track Misa Criolia (We Are The Children).

uh, that's not a cover. in fact i think i'd just call it a bootleg. he might have edited some stuff around, but it's pretty much just the original.

i didn't enter the discogs submission, but i haven't heard the original. it didn't sound like a cover though, i just thought it was an edit, but apparently a minimal one at that

guess he slowed it down a tad

I've just picked this up, and the sound quality on that particular cut sounds pretty crusty. The other tracks are fine. Anyone else notice this?

for beardo ppl in london - rub n tug are playing disco bloodbath next month

yes it annoys the shit outta me

anyone heard Elaste 2??? thought it would be slo-mo druggy stuff but its pretty uptempo and dancey
-- gr8080

i don't understand how two man sound - que tal america is space disco, same with the original productions by Tom Wieland's original productions. and while slo-motion disco hit the 90s on the bpm scale, still coulda been slower and druggier. who is in charge of naming these beezies?

same with the original productions by Tom Wieland's original productions

it's sonar kollectiv or compost or one of those types that puts those out right? kind of ?1?

compost put out "elaste" 1 and 2. sonar kollektiv put out "computer incantations for world peace", which also recently had a sequel published as well.

i bought elaste 2 tonight. i think it is "space disco", in the sense that i understand "space disco", which is uptempo synth-heavy disco ... not so much like moroder, in that it's clearly not a direct predecessor of techno or house, it's actually very traditional sounding jazz-funk-disco but with great spacey synthesizers solos over the top. more stuff like space and mandre or various patrick adams type things.

it's not what you would call "cosmic", and it's certainly not in the same genre as moroder or cowley or donna summer. it's somewhere in between the two.

if dan selzer were here he could probably expound on this a bit more.

i think cerrone or gino soccio would also probably fit under the "space disco" umbrella, too.

i love the computer incarnations for world peace comps, both are amazing

i don't mean to be a genre-nazi, and i do really like Elaste Vol. 2. i agree with you on the funky aspect, gino soccia and cerrone, and the like of the first Beard Science EP are all really what I would classify under the "space disco" definition you provided, along with two man sound. i guess the house-ier Panoptikum is really where i was thinking he was stretching it but it works, so i guess more power to him

okay having listened to this all the way through finally i agree with you; the panoptikum track is practically belgian new beat!!

that LEB harmony track is one of the best space disco tracks i've ever heard. it has all the right elements: live bass, guitar and drums, a pumping 4x4 beat, and awesome sci-fi synth juice all over the top

faze action johnny hammond remix is whats up
