I don't think it's rare or anything, just had never personally seen it for less than $25 or so

went to the Rub-N-Tug party in LA on saturday and danced til 6:30, great great party. they kept it pretty housey for the first 3-4 hours and then started to loosen it up with disco. guess it was eric D's bday and he dropped War's "L.A. Sunshine" at 6am and the small group of us remaining danced pretty hard for another half hour until i thought i was gonna collapse.

by the way mizzell was this the mix you were looking for

― dmr, Friday, 11 February 2011 22:02 (fifteen years ago)
is that the same one you put up earlier? that was it, thanks a lot!also excited cause i just ordered a copy of harvey's mad dog chronicles.
― mizzell, Friday, 11 February 2011 22:06 (fifteen years ago)
yeah same. wasnt sure if you noticed it there. no prob!
mad dog chronicles is so fucking good! think I got that off moonship somewhere else on the board, haha
still listen to it a bunch actually
― dmr, Friday, 11 February 2011 23:36 (fifteen years ago)
dj harvey: mad dog chronicles soundtrack
i just couldn't get into the r'b't v 1. they kept weirdly cutting the volume for no reason. song selection was ok. i know it's a few years old, so maybe doesn't seem fresh? that's not their fault. they never mixed. i'm not even a big proponent of mixing, but for this kind of dance music, seems like they'd want to. i dunno. maybe i'm jaded
― jaxon, Friday, 11 February 2011 23:53 (fifteen years ago)
campfire's way better imo. and the volume and mixing are ALL messed up on that one.
― dmr, Friday, 11 February 2011 23:59 (fifteen years ago)
yeah, i kinda just accepted the volume cuts and miscues on vol 1 cause of previously hearing campfire
what about the mixing on their fabric mix!?
― mizzell, Saturday, 12 February 2011 00:02 (fifteen years ago)
its nothing fancy, but it's not sloppy
― gr8080, Saturday, 12 February 2011 00:04 (fifteen years ago)
fabric mix definitely sounds more pro. song selection is pretty different too. not beardy at all, modern electro stuff. I dig it though.
― dmr, Saturday, 12 February 2011 00:27 (fifteen years ago)
there's some classic/90's house on it too
― gr8080, Saturday, 12 February 2011 00:42 (fifteen years ago)
i've been listening to their fabric a lot lately, love the couple of tracks leading into discopolis
― mizzell, Saturday, 12 February 2011 01:06 (fifteen years ago)
that reminds me I still haven't listened to the Optimo fabric mix!!!
― gr8080, Saturday, 12 February 2011 01:08 (fifteen years ago)
me neither! I usually get fabric promos but that one fell thru the cracks, I've been meaning to order it
― dmr, Saturday, 12 February 2011 01:12 (fifteen years ago)
Discopolis and Dragon are my jamz. also Turkish Tavern.

optimo fabric mix is kinda all over the place in a good way (save a few tracks). it becomes the greatest thing in the world once he starts laying things on top of "oar 003b"
― a lagoon par la mer (psychgawsple), Saturday, 12 February 2011 07:46 (fifteen years ago)
actually my least favourite part of that mix is "Don't Call". The mixing feels off, but I honestly can't tell if it's because I love that song and have heard it so many times it sounds wrong in that context.
― Gukbe, Saturday, 12 February 2011 07:50 (fifteen years ago)
Although I don't feel the same about it's use in the Synth Summer mix.
― Gukbe, Saturday, 12 February 2011 07:51 (fifteen years ago)
i never took to that desire album until i became obsessed with that mix, so my perspective is sorta the opposite i guess. i def love that part of the mix. it also sounds good with "love technique"
― a lagoon par la mer (psychgawsple), Saturday, 12 February 2011 07:57 (fifteen years ago)
oh it's brilliant with "love technique". other fav part of that mix (though it must be the obvious one) is the Tyrell Corporation.
― Gukbe, Saturday, 12 February 2011 08:00 (fifteen years ago)
"all over the place (in a good way)" is basically what makes optimo great, right?
btw when was the last time stirmonster posted??
― gr8080, Saturday, 12 February 2011 08:22 (fifteen years ago)
not sure exactly, but not long ago. seems like whenever somebody updates the optimo thread he shows up
― a lagoon par la mer (psychgawsple), Saturday, 12 February 2011 08:25 (fifteen years ago)
hay stirmonster I still want you to come play hawaii
― gr8080, Saturday, 12 February 2011 08:27 (fifteen years ago)
not really beardo but it does feature "I Feel Space", I listened to the Espacio Odyssey mix they did tonight and it's still awesome.
― Gukbe, Saturday, 12 February 2011 08:31 (fifteen years ago)
iirc thomas and eric picked the trax for the fabric mix, then it was mixed via computer! not their usual thing at all. still pretty classic tho.

so excited for this btw
― a lagoon par la mer (psychgawsple), Thursday, 24 February 2011 05:14 (fifteen years ago)
anyone know anything on the Soft Rocks album that is coming out? I'm assuming it's gonna be a bunch of beardy edits like the Disco Power Play 12" series (because that's what it's called). a sample 12" has come out but I haven't heard. Tim Sweeney has been dropping tracks from it the last couple weeks though. First track on his set for this show is one of them, sounds rad.

also Stallions remix of Ariel Pink is real nice, I dunno where it falls in beardo/balearic but it's nice and lovefingers is beardo so i thought i'd mention it here
― ashra williams (san frandisco), Thursday, 17 March 2011 20:52 (fifteen years ago)
The Disco Power Play full-length is rad, and yes, all beardy edits.
― Bangelo, Thursday, 17 March 2011 23:16 (fifteen years ago)
