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

The Emperor Machine - "Aimee Tallulah Is Hypnotised" - just can't stop listening to it.

2 quiet village 12"s. i'm not so hot on these. quiet village is matt from radio slave and joel martin.

2 map of africa 12"s. both of these are great with 'dirty lovin' of the first one being a particular fave. as far as i know, map of africa is thomas bullock and harvey though i heard the second one doesn't feature harvey. 'black skin blue eyed boys' sounds as if a young lemmy is doing the singing

2 bobbie marie 7"s. bobbie marie is thomas and some other guy. the first 7" is a really stoopid punk funk track with lots of farmyard noises. the second one has a great track on it that sounds a bit like suicide jamming with the gun club.

the last releases is by otterman empire and is a re edit thingie with a doors edit on one side and a dire straits on the other!

i keep hearing how hard these are to pick up but they seem to have reasonably good distribution in the uk.

1. Prins Thomas-Goettsching (Full Pupp)
2. Stratus-Looking Glass (Reverso 68 Mix) (Klein)
3. Jungle Wonz-The Jungle
4. Chicken Lips-Sweet Cow (Lindstrom Mix)
5. Greenman-Discotheque (Soul Jazz)
6. Kohib-Truger (Beat Service)
7. Black Dice-Smiling Off (Luomo Mix) (DFA)
8. Sebastian Tellier-La Ritournelle (Jake Bullit Mix) (Lucky Number)

Sad to hear about the Alldisco split, Dan. You guys DJ'ing together was always guaranteed fun.

can someone YSI this?

Also, someone should mashup "Maps" with some José G, somehow, and make us lame indie kids' year.

some of my favorite unexpected things that have popped up on the cosmic mixes from the tiscali site:

jj cale at 45
dave mason - wervin' (with r. wyatt on vocals) (you can dl another track from that lp as my track of the day at the newly minted http://www.dreamchimney.com/tracks/profile/captain it'll be up 'til monday). there's a few other dudes on there that post some great stuff if you don't know.
art of noise - paranoia
papa's got a brand new pigbag at 33

as far as that campfire mix, i guess it's kind of "rad" that they left all their crap mixes and skips and yanking all the volume levels up and down in there, but it's pretty unlistenable to my ears. they play some great stuff, no doubt, but it doesn't have much continuity for home listening. i'm sure it was a different story if you were there and i'm sure those guys could give a fuck...

i much prefer the piles of baldelli and loda mixes currently on my hd (courtesy of the tiscali site, where all the flyers came from). check out baldelli's interview at
http://www.redbullmusicacademy.com/LECTURERS.95.0.html too. great stuff.

the capone's saturday schedule now is as follows:

1st saturday: k. life walks + friends - tons of connects in the mid-late 80's miami bass scene. him and a bud did the tape edits on the beat club "security". nowadays he plays sweet disco and club classics.

2nd saturday (tonight) get into somethin' w/doug lee aka lee douglass + duane (negroclash). plus twilite tone and a live performance by black spade this week.

3rd saturday me (jeremy campbell) + guests. this week matt radune.

4th saturday: cabaret featuring escort (dan balis, eugene cho and darius mahgen who have a record coming out on environ). darshan from metro area plays with them this month.

i am listening to the dj loda mix that dan linked to above now. cosmic is definitely the right word!! excellent set...

i play this soundtrack a lot, but i've never seen the film. needless to say, tv volume is real high right now.

i don't know if that's "beardo house", but Carpenter certainly falls within that bumrocksy "LES dollar bin" aesthetic.

I have an Escape From LA UK 12" of drum and bass versions of the theme in my out pile at the minute. It's crap.

there's this italo/kosmiche/random obscuro DJing approach, then the Pica Pica Pica/Lift Boys/BD Cone Toaster/3xc3pt3r (dubious) beatmaking. I see them existing in parallel, but it's frustrating how they won't meet.

where is the point of common origin? Gottsching?

But that's the best kind of movement! And all we need to do is get someone to write an article and then it'll be real! I might do it for Stylus.

Carpenter gets total props from the Italo fiends.

I knew this, I was just started imagining if he made a disco concept album with vocals (by famous people) and stuff. Someone should do a Broadway musical of Escape from New York or They Live.

I'd love a YSI Telephone Thing.

you NEED this album: Unit Black Flight - Infiltration and Extraction

Also, does Betty Botox fit into this Beardo Disco?

time for a new eyboard!

i don't have 'black skin, blue eyed boys' digitised.

for those who absolutely need an id for something from one of those mixes, if you yousendit a clip and post it on djhistory, you can usually get an answer pretty quick. the most extensive cosmic threads on there mostly happened back in '03, so those guys have had the time to figure a lot of it out. it's only failed me once...

they also had a thread on beards recently.
http://www.djhistory.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13672

the relationship between italo disco and the cosmic scene, if you believe baldelli, was pretty nil. he says he didn't like or follow much of that stuff and was much more into the german electronic stuff. i think he said sky was his favorite label in that red bull interview.

for the tiscali site, you have to email the guy for a password. you may also have to download the opera browser if you aren't handy with ftp.

i think somebody once said, "it's not what you say, it's how you say it"

applies equally to djing i'd say.

otm. i much prefer it slowed down. not part of the cosmic thang but probably the most famous example of a song being slowed down and then becoming massive as a result is 'flesh' by a split second which was actually re released in its' 33.333 + 8 version.

something bothers me abt finding dj harvey songs off playlists rather than the mixes themselves

although obviously I myself take complete advantage of them

often the tracks are his own edits or he's using two copies, or mixing a dub into an instrumental or whatever. v often i've heard one on spotify and it's been good but not the same as hearing a version that goes on for fifteen minutes.

for instance he either has an edit or always mixes helen zanzibar instrumental into the dub and back again, ime.

but tbh, and i'm not just saying this, i don't think there is an online dj harvey mix that reflects the best of what he's been playing live in the last decade or so.

i'd caveat that by saying he's not been quite as good the most recent times i've seen him, but still a lot of what he does is only in the live sets.

over the years have dug out a few of these with some friends - this is a good one, by thomas bangalter's father!

this is another massive one, spent years trying to find it but it got a rerelease a little while ago, the main riff would come into my head for several years. that's one plus with harvey, the edits are so long that you will remember the tune even after a heavy night :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8kecKpXH7U

one more, a more recent one - i should prob make a playlist tbh, don't want to bust the thread with videos:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsb7vivat2g

I saw him last year in miami at Space and considering half the crowd seemed completely oblivious to who he was he kind of crushed

he closed with this song (2am-6am set) really fun

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

ah lovely, he will often end with something a bit different. duran duran - ordinary world or whatever.

he's playing in london next month, will prob go tho the venue sucks a bit. it's him all night and even the worst sets i've seen him do are fire.

i do kinda mourn for the sets he was doing four/five years ago tho. one night in london i decided to go at doors open and it was the one time he was basically there solo at 10pm. played until 7am or so the next morning. it was amazing watching him warm it up and build it. the last few times i thought he phoned it in a bit even tho still better than most.

i do find the house/techno in the middle a bit boring also. like he's a good dj in any style i just don't really care about hearing him play stuff other people could play. his sets in pikes in ibiza are p great in that it's just disco and balearic all night in a tiny room.

also seen him end with this - absolute showstopper:

Hi LocalGarda!

yeah i absolutely turn the smart shuffle thing off when I play that playlist, fwiw. i don’t use spotify at home or anywhere other than work so haven’t fiddled around too much with any of it’s functionality

the gym at my work yesterday plays Spotify on shuffle and it played The Rolling Stones “Paint It Black” 4 times within the span 20 minutes. Then followed it the GnR’s “Welcome to the Jungle” twice with “Seven Nation Army” sandwiched between.

haha!

thanks for the hypno dance LG, loved that one

It is so great! Takes me back to a lot of good nights out.

And hi table! I have been on the Elden Ring thread a bit but eventually had to pop in here for some Harvey discussion, keeping it positive, lol.

probably for the best lol

yo LocalGarda do you still go clubbing? my friends for that kinda stuff have fallen away drastically.

lol didn't realise I was reviving a month old thread for that, just had it bookmarked

Not so often but I am going to see Harvey tomorrow night actually. Not sure how long I'll be there for as various factors conspiring against me but this also means I'll plan another night out before Xmas as I'd like a decent jaunt on a weekend when I can maybe take the Monday off.

banned from the army!
