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

haha xpost

basically agreeing with the notion "it's possible to be crate digging music and dance-rock at the same time" -- see "Losing My Edge" as exhibit A, not to mention a lot of Lindstrom stuff. It does appear to be difficult, however, to produce tracks using this really mellow source material without in turn mellowing, smoothing it down even more (possibly to accomodate the extended forms of most electronic dance music?), and taking more of the edge off.

i think this is an appropriate thing to say re: all the balearic stuff

xpost!!

for the record...I don't remember a time A.R.E. Weapons were actually popular, even with NY hipsters. Their shows were just parties filled with their friends, and they had lots of friends, but it never seemed to go any further then that.

xpost: dan, vahid is actually like the little boy who dunks the girls pigtails in the inkwell because he secretly likes her, don't worry.

generation gap??

how old are you?

What is wrong with balearic? Also, where does deep house fit in?

heh, i just got an online store email about a sampler for this mix:

growing up in canada i find it so funny that corey hart's o.g. version of 'sunglasses at night' is a considered to be 'rare' in some parts

What is wrong with balearic?

a bunch of london soul djs go to ibiza in the late 80's, take a load of e and hear djs playing house music, nitzer ebb and manuel gottsching and think this is revolutionary. they come back and decide they have invented balearic. clubs all over the world (even in london) were doing exactly the same thing at that time. it was pretty normal but because they were so insular they didn't have a clue. as they are in with all the right media people, they get the credit for starting a musical revolution. tossers.

i just got a kerri chandler track that I love. Its slow and slightly dubby, great stuff. Larry Heard also fits nicely into a lot of these mixes.

Kaito's beatless special love album has some great arpeggiated sweetness as well

Re-edit disco mania seems like the thing to do, between growing a beard and surfing the net for rare and preferably unheard records. As a lifelong follower of fashion in all aspects of life's rainbow, the Phantom Slasher thought it was time to cash in and relieve some poor innocents of their hard earned shekels with a series of pointless re-workings of well known disco records they just found.Featuring a no expense spared all star line up of creative minds Cyrus Posatron and Digby Yakkiddin are assisted in this labour of love by the creative genius that is Frank Rimburger, and a Flock of Terry's amongst others, with all efforts manhandled by the infamous Bobby "Back Door" Dove. They hope the eight works here serve to enrich your world, relight your dancefloor and spread the message of love that is at the centre of all that the Phantom Slasher wants you to feel. These words come from those disco purveyors the Idjut Boys

but this is basically the best thing ever ... easily my favorite noid / idjuts release, probably the best beardo comp i've heard since "sarcastic disco" itself
