Nice! Is that your tune?

― elan,

Unfortunately not, mine don't have that peaceful joie de vivre. Someone left a tape in the car park at Morrisons. I picked it up and tried it out in the Hyundai Accent LC I had hired for the week, and then this happened, reverie flew throughout the valley and crime figures were reduced

Is that FBR on an album or just the EPs?

the album is on spotify - i think it might also be on vinyl, feel like i saw it somewhere as a whole album.

Balearic mates did you have this dream too?

Forthcoming on Basso's Growing Bin:

Nice write up by Dr Rob over on banbantonton

Thoroughly enjoying the Phil Mison comp referenced above, thanks for the heads up.

Balearic mates I woke from my dream but the spirit of the balearic feeling is still around. I borrowed a phone and recorded some balearic people vibing in the local waterways have a great day

xp the comp has sent me down a Mison mix wormhole, he's been doing some loooong mixes at Spiritland eg. https://www.mixcloud.com/Spiritland/phil-mison-at-spiritland-11th-march-2017/

between Guassian Curve, his solo album, and his collaborative album with Suzanne Kraft, I feel like Jonny Nash is really doing a lot for 2017

groovypanda, i downloaded that endless summer 2 mix eons ago and it just came up on shuffle, just in time to accompany a day of summer housecleaning. it's sublime.

more synthpop really but had never heard this until it came up in a trujillo mix - very nice tune! just the £125 on discogs.

xp ha, thanks. Keep meaning to do a third volume but don't seem to have the time

Another couple of great recent compilations:

La Torre Ibiza 2

Second one in the series from Mark Barrott and Pete Gooding

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

Crown Ruler Sound

Comp on Danny McLewin's Spacetalk label that has a similar vibe to those recent Psychemagik compilations but with an Afro/Caribbean slant

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZF82-jOVprI

only getting around to the phil mison comp now - really good! he was playing at ministry last week but i didn't leave the harvey room. pity as any sets i have of his are good.

both those la torre comps are great. love the disco davina tune off the first one.

some great tunes on this: https://www.mixcloud.com/BrilliantCorners/trujillos-cosmic-caribe-300517/

this, reissued on rush hour, is really nice too, south african disco:

lastly, anyone know the tune at 15 minutes in this?

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

i got lord of the isles - in waves on the strength of this thread and it's tremendous, like what bola should have been or something? i LOVE it.

http://www.nts.live/shows/test-pressing/episodes/test-pressing-5th-august-2017

this weekend's Test Pressing show on NTS. These are always good but the one for August was exceptional I thought. No tracklisting up yet which is frustrating.

absolutely frigging obsessed rn with this one song by anna domino from 1986:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8wTNLTb08I

managed to id that harvey tune from the above video - incredible record:

the new bjørn torske and prins thomas LP is pretty sick tyte, i'm listening to it a lot... so far only groovypanda's mentioned it on the lindstrom & prins thomas thread i think. maybe torske deserves more shine. seems like he's been a really big influence in norway's disco scene and still making great music

https://www.discogs.com/Various-Five-Years-Of-Loving-Notes-/release/10384395

don't think it's been mentioned but this Antinote compilation is really good - a little outside this thread's remit at times but mostly on the flutes and pads side of balearic electronics.

Torske is great. I still listen to this Nordic Chill mix he did for DJ Mag in 03.

don't think it's been mentioned but this Antinote compilation is really good - a little outside this thread's remit at times but mostly on the flutes and pads side of balearic electronics.

Nice one here.

Chee Shimizu's live mix on this Music From Memory compilation is really good, I always think of the label primarily in terms of the ambient stuff they release so to hear a proper mix that you can actually dance to is fun.

Digging this

a lot of the mixes the guys behind it do are more uptempo.

LG you're always listening to good mixes of this stuff, point me towards something similarly uptempo and brilliant you've had on recently please

I made a mix this weekend using mostly vinyl but some digital files. https://www.mixcloud.com/biznotic/expand-and-expand/

u bros up on charlotte adigéry? her 12" and garrett's 'private life' are my too big balearic discoveries this summer

I love that Charlotte Adigery, "Senegal Seduction" is the one

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKISwVQh7oA

enjoyed that mix brotherlovesdub, that Oktoberklubben track really reminds me of Studio.

Yeah, The Oktoberklubben is so good. I'm tempted to buy another copy before the 300 pressed are all gone.

Thanks for listening! It's not a great mix technically, levels are off due to going back and forth between vinyl and digital, but the songs are good.

@ boxedjoy - sure - this one is from last year but prob one of my favourite mixes in recent years. jamie tiller is one of the music from memory guys: https://soundcloud.com/dkmntl/orpheu-the-wizard-jamie-tiller-at-lente-kabinet-festival-28052016

there are prob more where that came from. maybe the trujillo mix from brilliant corners too, tho it's a little less obscure: https://www.mixcloud.com/BrilliantCorners/trujillos-cosmic-caribe-300517/

there are so many amazing mixes of free music that fit this thread - brilliant corners' mixcloud alone is full of these huge mixes.

Spiritland's Mixcloud feed is similarly packed with down-tempo goodness: https://www.mixcloud.com/Spiritland/

Listening to Chris Coco from Spiritland now. It's quite good, and especially nice considering he doesn't talk. I regularly listen to Melodica, but his voice is even more annoying than Mary Ann Hobbes.

i prob posted this before but this one is a real odyssey: https://soundcloud.com/johngomezldn/john-gomez-jamie-tiller-at-brilliant-corners

Also lots of good mixes over at Dr Rob's Ban Ban Ton Ton site, especially his Looking For The Balearic Beat series of mixes of new releases:

https://banbantonton.com/2017/09/08/mix-looking-for-the-balearic-beat-september-2017/

The new Harvey compilation is worth getting, as usual.

This mix from the Beat Broker is soothing me on a cold and wet Thursday morning:

The new Harvey compilation is worth getting, as usual.

i like this comp a lot but it's just not the same as what he plays when you see him. i guess it's good he keeps this divide but still.

My friend reworked Otis by Durutti Column. Should fit in balearic sets.

Parachute - From Asian Port LP

Check out "Miura Wind" at ~27:00

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otu3X6hQDV4

This came up on shuffle on the way to work this morning but I have no idea where I got it from. Sounds like something Harvey might play so possibly that.

Great track though

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOT_16pUBoc

That was posted in the italo rfi thread recently iirc.

love that asian port lp. the first track is one i was trying to id for a while way upthread.
