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

fabric mix definitely sounds more pro. song selection is pretty different too. not beardy at all, modern electro stuff. I dig it though.

there's some classic/90's house on it too

i've been listening to their fabric a lot lately, love the couple of tracks leading into discopolis

that reminds me I still haven't listened to the Optimo fabric mix!!!

me neither! I usually get fabric promos but that one fell thru the cracks, I've been meaning to order it

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"

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.

Although I don't feel the same about it's use in the Synth Summer mix.

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"

oh it's brilliant with "love technique". other fav part of that mix (though it must be the obvious one) is the Tyrell Corporation.

"all over the place (in a good way)" is basically what makes optimo great, right?

btw when was the last time stirmonster posted??

not sure exactly, but not long ago. seems like whenever somebody updates the optimo thread he shows up

hay stirmonster I still want you to come play hawaii

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.

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.

DrDunks Eric Duncan
Finishing up premasters for Rub>N<Tug 12".. Soon come. http://plixi.com/p/77659118

Eric is the guest on Beats in Space next week

^rad mix, consists entirely of dr. dunks edits!

Finishing up premasters for Rub>N<Tug 12".. Soon come.

so excited for this btw

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

The Disco Power Play full-length is rad, and yes, all beardy edits.

where'd u snag a copy?

also this looks cool

aw man i love supermax

u are now the supermax

serious bummer

:(

Yeah, Love Supermax! sad news

would love another map of africa album

supermax :( huge bummer

Noticed yesterday that Bumrocks is back. Happy for this.

i'd like another map of africa album, but would be satisfied if i could just find a copy of the laughing light of plenty album, which apparently came out last year

just to download it would be good.

plus one; I've been emailing every distro whose name shows up anywhere in association with Whatever We Want trying to track down a copy

want ameliorated by downloading Nemesi tracks. Only knew L'Asteroid from Rub-n-Tug's fabric mix, but all four of the singles (L'Asteroid, Jurassico, Ojo, and Cosmica) are cool spacy disco/rock with nice guitar.

don't expect to hear that LLoP album. i heard ruscha only has 3 copies himself and that's all that's out there or something

have LLoP but have not cracked the seal on it yet, for no real reason in particular other than it may never ever ever come out.

so what's the deal?

http://whateverwewantrecords.com/

i guess the label forgot to renew the domain ?

Cosmica is great; there's an awesome Lindstrom remix (possibly w/ PT too, I forget) from a few years ago too

Good interview with Hatchback, where he kind of turns away from the Balearic scene, onto the burgeoning new-age scene.

http://blog.iso50.com/23792/hatchback-a-new-age-for-music-lovers/

WEWW's name is no joke, i reckon. i did break the seal on it and Laughing Light is a pretty good piece of work. nothing is going to top "The Rose" (which btw is still available on the No Ordinary Monkey site: http://noordinarymonkey.com/stuff.html ) but there's an epic side-long track (which i believe Tim Sweeney aired on Beats in Space) that is killer. not sure what happened to the thing though, or to the label. i'm told there's a Map of Africa album as well in the can, but not sure about that.

the epic long track is The pulse.
16m of beardo bliss :)

samples can be heard (along with every other weww release) here http://www.tiltcorp.com/whateverwewantilt2.html

I will pay you ten billion ILXbux for a rip of that LLoP album
