I can't stop listeing to 'Warm Nights' by Reuben Vaun Smith

I was going to post the same album here. It's really good for something that was supposedly a live / unedited performance.

brotherlovesdub, Thursday, 3 September 2020 15:43 (three years ago) link

yeah, i don't get how it claims to be that - he says it's a jam and there are loads of mistakes, but it's perfectly formed

Domenique Dumont has a new album out in November. It's a soundtrack to a German silent film from the 30s. This is the only track up yet, and it sounds very nice.

oh nicee!

Is this a fleshed out version of the SoundCloud I shared earlier in the year. I'm hyped!

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Wednesday, 16 September 2020 11:29 (three years ago) link

I searched out the SoundCloud link I shared on this thread. It was indeed the same project, and it no longer is on SoundCloud. Will be interesting to see if this is a repackaging of the exact same thing or what.

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Wednesday, 16 September 2020 15:14 (three years ago) link

I was really hoping they'd release it.

Evan, Wednesday, 16 September 2020 15:19 (three years ago) link

Relistening to Domenique Dumont’s miniatures album and it has so many breezy, gorgeous moments. Specially love how the guitar sounds.

✖✖✖ (Moka), Friday, 25 September 2020 15:58 (three years ago) link

At this point, I'd say that's my favorite of the two.

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Friday, 25 September 2020 18:17 (three years ago) link

'sans cesse, mon chéri' is already an all time great

donna rouge, Tuesday, 3 November 2020 18:19 (three years ago) link

New Domenique Dumont is excellent as expected, more subtle and less chirpy than previous releases but would have been ideal if it had came out in time for the end of summer.

Molero - Ficciones Del Tropico looks like it ought to go here.

https://holuzam.bandcamp.com/album/ficciones-del-tr-pico

Specific Ocean Blue (dog latin), Tuesday, 24 November 2020 18:04 (three years ago) link

Dog Latin, did you get the 10” reissue for Raw Silk and does yours also sound terrible? My copy has a lot of noise.

brotherlovesdub, Tuesday, 24 November 2020 20:47 (three years ago) link

no, i only got an mp3 i'm afraid

Specific Ocean Blue (dog latin), Wednesday, 25 November 2020 17:56 (three years ago) link

new K-Lone album is quite different from his previous stuff and definitely fits the tropical balearic sound: https://wisdomteethuk.bandcamp.com/album/k-lone-cape-cira-lp

Specific Ocean Blue (dog latin), Wednesday, 25 November 2020 17:56 (three years ago) link

You mean new as in this year? It's been out since spring. Indeed it is so good! Check out The Falls EP while you're at it.

Evan, Wednesday, 25 November 2020 18:07 (three years ago) link

Ah well it's new to me. I was only familiar with his clubbier stuff till now

Specific Ocean Blue (dog latin), Wednesday, 25 November 2020 20:56 (three years ago) link

TBH I've only come to appreciate the term 'Balearic' as a loose concept recently, even if I've enjoyed the sound and vibe for a very long time.

Not even 100% sure what I've been playing really counts as such, but for me it's about painting images of liminal spaces and places: Be it a beach, a forest or an office building
